When someone enters mydomain.com in their browser a page opens saying "available surveys".But when someone enters mydomain.com i want them to see a certain survey because i have only one survey.How can i do this?

You will have to redirect them to the survey URL, either via .htaccess or via Javascript that you implement in the template for the index page.

I think .htaccess is the best solution.

But it would be bad for google seo.Because there would be no keywords at mydomian.com.I love limesurvey and used to it.Is there no other ways to put the survey directly to mydomain.com?

Well, usually for surveys we are not that much interested in SEO.

If SEO is an issue, you have different options (unfortunately I am currently not as up to date as I was some years ago about SEO, so these might be slightly out dated tips):

If you use the correct redirect things should be fine (permanently redirected) and you can put your keywords into your welcome page.

If you want to have keywords directly under mydomain.com and not under the actual survey URL, you can adapt the page via the template and provide only one link which goes to the respective survey.
