Currently google shows my site link as...
example.com/
...however, I would like it to be displayed as...
example.com
I do have the following meta data
<link rel="canonical" href="http://example.com" />
...and the following is my htaccess file...
IndexIgnore *
ErrorDocument 400 /error
ErrorDocument 401 /error
ErrorDocument 403 /error
ErrorDocument 404 /error
ErrorDocument 500 /error
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ / [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(home|cv|handouts|links|contact|copyright|cv)/?$ /index.php?module=home&action=$1
RewriteRule ^(log(in|out))/?$ /index.php?module=authentication&action=$1
RewriteRule ^photos/?$ /index.php?module=gallery&action=album&album=general
RewriteRule ^gallery/?$ /index.php?module=gallery&action=album&album=general
RewriteRule ^gallery/([^/\.]+)/?$ /index.php?module=gallery&action=album&album=$1
RewriteRule ^gallery/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/?$ /index.php?module=gallery&action=album&album=$1$&page=$2
RewriteRule ^gallery/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/?$ /index.php?module=gallery&action=item&album=$1$&page=$2&item=$3
RewriteRule ^release/?$ /index.php?module=release&action=release
RewriteRule ^error/?$ /index.php?module=error&action=error
... and with the htaccess file being as above, I note that visiting either example.com or example.com/index.php redirects to example.com/ which perhaps could be the problem??
With all that being said, and any ideas on how to get google to display my link as example.com NOT example.com/
Thanks in advance!
Run a Google Search . Every single website in their database has a trailing slash after the domain name. The only time they don't have a trailing slash is when it's after a path component. The path component trailing slash is up to each website's administrator to decide.
In the future they might hide the trailing slash like they do in Chrome but for now there's nothing you can do about.
