    Hi,
    I’m trying to delete the documents that i uploaded on one of my sites, when i couldnt find it (other than deleting the link and the post) i deleted the site itself.
    however, if I googled the file name, it still popped up as PDF even though the site is written as deleted. how do i solve this problem?

    What is the PDF URL?

    To keep things running quickly around here, files are held in multiple caches through a separate system. These caches are usually cleared within 3 days and the files will then become 404 page not found.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs and/or blog content does not remove any indexed items from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.
