    Hi,
    I put my site up at the beginning of August. Around the 15th of aug, google crawled my site. Since that time, I have totally re-written the site.

    According to my apache logs, google has spidered most if not a ll of my new pages, but when I search for my site, google only shows the original pages.

    Is there a trick to getting google to reindex my site?

    Site url:
    http://pcpro.draikes.com

    Google still shows some pages that have been gone for over 8 months from my site.

    Google has a remove URL option. Do a search for "Google remove URL" and you can have them remove obsolete pages.

    Smyrl,
    What is the exact syntax?
    I tried:
    google remove http://pcpro.draikes.com/spyware-removal.html

    and google said no results were found,
    but if I do
    site:pcpro.draikes.com
    I see the spyware-removal.html page listed.

    It's an irony isn't it. We strive to have our pages indexed and then strive to have them removed ;)
