I recently decided to leave GoDaddy in choice of NameCheap as my preferred hosting package for my mothers business, I also had to bring my domain name to the guys i register my local domain names.

Once I had finally gotten control of my domain name I changed the DNS settings and set up the hosting package and waited for the domain name to resolve.. 24/48 Hrs (as I wasn't in a big rush) later I went back to check and found it had finally resolved.

I then uploaded the old site that used to be hosted with godaddy via ftp to my nameCheap server... However once I had done this I decided to search for my mums business on Google and found it looked like this



So I logged into ftp and found the cgi-bin and deleted it thinking that was the problem.. but still no luck. If you click the link it takes you to index.html perfectly... its just in the search result I have this weird erro, any idea how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

The error “Index of /. cgi-bin/” means that the DNS zone hasn't got updated yet and that you don't have an index file in your public_html directory.

That means you didn't have a valid index file last time google crawled your site and /. cgi-bin/ was accessible without an index file itself.

That should sort itself out with no problem as long as the public html folder has a valid index file.
