File still available through google.

I have deleted a file on my wordpress.com blog, but it’s still available on google search. I need to get this file offline. How is this possible? I need this link offline. It’s really important. I deleted it on my wordpress blog.. i set my wordpress blog privat but still available when i search it on google. Can someone help me? It’s urgent. Its private information, i don’t want to have on the internet.
My first language isn’t english, my first language is german, please excuse my english.

Hello menschenwert!
Google and other sites cache content so that it can still show up after being taken offline. For moments like this, they do have a tool to request removal of “outdated” content. You can make your request at https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/6349986?hl=en.
Hope this helps!

Since you’ve already deleted the file from your WP blog, sites like Yahoo will be removing their cached versions over the coming weeks. In the case of Yahoo!, this will take six to eight weeks.
To expedite the process, you can see their document on this subject at https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN4530.html
Keep in mind that there are many search engines and other places on the internet where the information may be cached. Over time, many of those will remove the files automatically when they refresh their cache.

Thanks a lot. Is there a contact possibility at yahoo?
And do i have to take my wordpress blog down so the file will be gone, or is it enough that i deleted the file on my blog?
I would like my blog to be still online.

Simply deleting the file will be good enough to have it eventually removed from search engine cache.
