How to remove indexed pages from Google

Hi,
Recently we run a GWO test for my site. We use three variations to test which page is working effective, now the test is completed. We used three variations like abc.com/123/, abc.com/456/, abc.com/567/, my problem is all this variation pages got indexed by Google. Can anybody suggest me how to remove those indexed pages from Google

 

There are several ways..

You have to verify your site in GOOGLE WEBMASTER TOOL. Check for an option for remove URL from Google index.

When you select the url and submit it, by the next google cache it will be removed from the google index. However if you want to avoid this process, then use a robots.txt or meta tags.
Remember use noindex, nofollow and you will have to select the search engine, which you want.

 

You can request to remove indexed pages within your Google webmaster tools account.

 

you can create and specify particular page not to index on robots.txt.

 

Wait for sometime if you have removed your page then after sometime google will also remove your indexed pages automatically. Otherwise you can remove them from google webmaster tools.

 

There is an alternate way of get those pages out of your index apart from use Google Webmaster Tools. You can use 301 redirect to prevent those pages from being found by search engines.

redirect 301 /old-page-name http://www.domain.com/new-page-name

Code (markup):

You could gain a little SEO benefits if you ever done link building to those redirected pages. All link power would be transferred to the new page due to redirection.

 

I always remove my indexed pages with Webmasters tools.
It's very easy..but it takes some time

 

You just Removed These pages from your site

 

You can do it by simply with disallow command and 301 redirect.
Here is what you need to add to robots.txt
Disallow /filename.html

and set the 301 (permanent) redirection from that page to another.

 

Should the page be removed automatically from Google as it no longer exists?

 

It does but to make sure you need to make those changes. I guess it gets deleted from google cache quicker.

 

The best solution is to restrict via robots.txt the unwanted pages, setup the canonical version of the page and use the URL removal tool from within your webmaster tools control panel.

 

and where you can find that option? Cause I know only one feature in webmasters tools which is change of the address???

 

do it in webmaster tools, you can also use the no idex tag as well

 

You can do this, simply disable the team and 301.
Here's what you need to add a robots.txt
Disable / filename.html

and install a 301 (permanent) redirect from this page to another. If I have any good idea I will post, thx very much

 

use canonical tags OR noindex tag OR 301 redirect the duplicate pages...

 

you can use meta tags to remove from google
you have to use following meta tags in your page to remove your page from google
<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE">
above meta tag for only google only
