  An article recently was deleted and I submitted it to google’s outdated content page to get if off google search results. It worked just fine but then just recently it reappeared, I resubmitted the link to the outdated content page, which it once again said it was deleted but is still on the google page.

  It says something about robot.txt and i am confused

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

  Robots.txt is for search engine bots to quickly scan your site for content. Do you remember what Google said about it and can repost it here?

  Have you tried using this content removal page from Google?
