  Hi there.

  When I make a simple search at Google (Brazil) to find my blog, it only appears the following link:
  http://blog.vigilanti.com.br/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

  I’ve tried to generate a robots.txt file with the content below to solve the problem…
  User-agent: *
  Disallow: /wp-

  …but there’s no way to upload a new robots.txt into the server! So, what should I do to make Google bots don’t find /wp- pages on my blog anymore?

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

  It’s not possible to edit the robots.txt file of a WordPress.com blog. The robot.txt file that does go out with your blog is set to allow all search engines access to index your blog.

  Right, so what should I do to make Google bots don’t find /wp- pages on my blog anymore?

  I don’t want my visitors in “lost password” page instead of my home page…

  Have you tried submitting your site map to Google Webmaster Tools?
