Webmasters/Site owners Help

You can instruct us not to include content from your site in our index or to remove content from your site that is currently in our index.

Note: If you want to direct users to a particular URL for your site (for instance, if you want them to visit http://www.example.com instead of http://example.com), don't use any of the methods below. Removing www.example.com will also remove http://example.com, and removing https://www.example.com will also remove http://www.example.com. Instead, use Webmaster Tools to safely set your preferred domain.

• Remove your entire website or part of your website using a robots.txt file.
• Remove individual pages of your website using a robots meta tag.
• Remove cached copies of your pages using a robots meta tag.
• Remove snippets that appear below your page's title in our search results and describe the content of your page.
• Remove outdated pages by returning the proper server response.
• Remove images from Google Image Search using a robots.txt file.
• Remove blog entries from Google Blog Search.
• Remove transcoded versions of your pages (pages we've reformatted for mobile browsers).

If the content is currently in our index, we will remove it after the next time we crawl it. To expedite removal, use the URL removal request tool in Google Webmaster Tools.
