  I recently deleted a post from my WordPress site; however, this post is still accessible through a Google search. I need to have this history deleted permanently. Can anyone help me remove this so that it no longer will appear in Google search?

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

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content does not remove it 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.
