Remove Selected Pages From Yahoo Index

A member at WebmasterWorld asked you one can remove his pages from Yahoo index. Tim, the local Yahoo rep. posted a url with a solution:

  • create a “robots.txt” file on your web site to prevent our crawler from indexing your site
  • add a “noindex” meta tag to your documents
  • remove the original document from your web site
  • host the document on a secure section of your web site (HTTPS or login)

He also added later on that:

We do provide a removal service. Just click no at the bottom of the page linked above and you get a form to fill out with the information. There is actually also a legal page about copyright violations etc in the help section too that has legal contact information via phone, fax and email.
