Does anyone know how to bulk remove URLs from Google? It scanned my site a couple weeks ago when I was fixing some code and it generated tens of thousands of bad URLs, but though I fixed it, Google continues to go to those 404 pages about 25,000 times per day. I've lost about 70% of my site traffic because of it. I can remove them either by a long list of bad URLs, or regex for any URL with 2 slashes. Anyone know if this batch removal is possible?
Hello I know one way to remove url. There is one options in Google Webmaster Tools. It's called "Remove URLs". It's important. Only site owners and users with full permissions can request removals. First of all read removal requirements here https://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=59819&hl=en I think it can help you.
It only removes 1 URL at a time, or via robots.txt you could put a bunch of URLs in there, but I can't do it that way, as I have many thousands of URLs, and need to use regex.
The best way to remove (deindex) bulk 404 pages is by increasing the crawling rate. you increase the crawl rate for the site to maximum . only use this if you have fixed the cause of the error.
Removes web site name through robots.txt you may place a bunch of URLs in there, undoubtedly it will assist you.
