    Recently I moved to new host and I got a temporary URL for testing purpose. I did a search with my site name, google is showing both the temp url and original url. I want to remove the temp url completely. How I remove that url completely from google? Whats the exact code should I add in Robots.txt?
    This is the url I want to block http://digitaladvices.com.cp-21.webhostbox.net/

    it will block that URL. You could also remove the URL in Google webmaster tools.
