We often get asked the question “Can’t you just remove that page from Google?” As it turns out, Google employees get asked that a lot as well. Making the internet rounds today is a post from Google Search Quality manager Matt Cutts, where he clearly states Google’s position. A small exerpt:
We typically say that if person A doesn’t like a webpage B, only removing page B out of Google’s search results doesn’t do any good because webpage B is still there (e.g. it can be found by going to it directly or through other search engines). In that sense, the presence of that page in Google’s index is just reflecting the fact that the page exists on the wider web.
So what should you do if you see a Google result that you don’t like? This is what we’re here for. First, contact our team to get a full assessment of the situation. We know exactly how to handle results that you don’t like.
