   Hi there

   I had a wordpress page up and running for testing on a domain, with some plugins etc etc. Now however I got another site live on the same domain, the problem is that when I search on google fx. the old posts (that doesn't excits anymore) stil show up, and I really don't want that.

   First I tried a plugin called "redirection" to make all the posts that google linked to generate a 404 error (I thought google would remove the links if they wasn't reachable). However the plugin doesn't work :(

   So I was wondering how I can hide certain pages and post from google bots and crawlers so they wont show up again?

   Also other solutions to this would be greatly appreciated.

   Thanks!
   Jacob

   Use a robots.txt and Google's URL removal tool:
