Correct WordPress PPC Redirects

Our paid-search clicks are slipping through the cracks because a previous developer left two WordPress installs on the server. The live site is running fine, but the duplicate, non-live install is catching most of our PPC traffic. I need those ad visitors to reach a dedicated landing page on the live site and nowhere else. Here’s the situation: • Two WordPress folders / domains are active on the host. • DNS, .htaccess, or plugin-level rules were never tidied up, so Google Ads traffic loads the wrong instance. • Analytics data is a mess. What I need from you: • Identify every path or sub-domain currently serving the non-live site. • Create 301 redirects (server-side, plugin, or Cloudflare—whichever is safest) pointing all PPC entry points to the correct landing page. • Preserve UTM parameters so conversion tracking remains intact. • Prove the fix with a quick test plan: before / after screenshots, redirect map, and confirmation there are no loops or 404s. You’ll have temporary WP admin and host access; please outline any additional credentials you’ll require. Once complete I expect PPC clicks to cleanly load the landing page, analytics to show the right URLs, and the staging site to stay hidden from both search engines and users.
