Hello friends,
I have a website in which I have made some changes in url’s i.e I have build more SEF URL’s . Now the problem is that the previous url’s are also indexed in the Google. So when the user searches for the query those url also opens. I want that those url’s should be de indexed from Google search…Is this possible please let me know if you have solution to this…

You need to put a redirect on, to ensure that anyone going to one of the old URLs is taken to the new page. Search engines will (eventually!) update their index.

In the .htaccess file, include a line like this for each file:

Redirect 301 [COLOR="#DD0000"]/oldpage.htm[/COLOR] [COLOR="Green"]http://site.com/newpage.htm[/COLOR]

The old URL should be relative to the root (or to the folder with the .htaccess file if that isn’t in the root), the new URL must include the full domain name and path.

I agree with Stevie D that you should setup 301 redirects from the old to the new URLs, but if you really want to remove URLs from Google then you can do this in Google Webmaster Tools.

You have four options for removing your URL,

  • The URL must return a status code of either 404 or 410.
  • The URL must be blocked by the site’s robots.txt file.
  • The URL must be blocked by a robots meta tag.
  • Manually remove your URL from index using Google removal tool (but flooding URL removal requests may considered as spamming)

Zorro D Sounds like extra work is involved here ------

I belive there are some options on webmaster tools to de index URLs

Hmm, strange no one exactly answered how to solve your problem. Just add the url of the page you want to be di-indexed in the robots.txt file just add the urls under ’ Disallow : >url> ’ it should solve the problem. As soon as google crawls your page again, the mentioned urls will be de-indexed.

You have to do URL Redirect 301 this is the only way you can force google boot to index this page to previous similar page.
