  Hello,

  I am trying to delete a file I uploaded many years ago to one of my sites. It is an old resume, located at the following URL:

  I’ve tried a number of things to delete the page, but it still shows up in simple google searches of my name or phone number. Please help me take this down permanently!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Like @themagicrobot pointed out in your other thread, the site this file is on is marked as private and the file you linked gives a 403 – Access Denied error.

  You might also try using the Removal Tool at Google to request that they remove that page now that your site is private. You can find the removal tool here:
