How to un-index a page

by andreypod

Posted: 14 years ago 5 replies

Hi All,
I've just created new look for my site telads.com .au but when I type in the following search terms in google some of the old pages come up:

telads australia
telads
telads melbourne

old pages that come up with old site looks:
telads. com . au / procom. html
telads. com. au / marke . html

I don't want to delete them as they are still being used and referred to, is there a way to un-index them, ie prevent from appearing when typing those terms?

Thanks

PS- dear moderator, hope I didn't violate links policy etc.

  Do you have robots.txt there? If no, then create this file in root and paste there following:
  
  Code:
  
  User-agent: * Disallow: telads.com.au/procom.html Disallow: telads.com.au/marke.html
  
  I am not sure if it will de-index these files, but you can try.
  
  Thanks

  A more seo friendly way would be to just incorporate them into new design and use a 301 re-direct from old page to new page.
