# Remove a page hosted on your site from Google

> [!WARNING]
> **If you don't own the page** , see [Remove your personal information from Google](https://support.google.com/websearch/troubleshooter/3111061) instead.


For quick removals, use the [Removals tool](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9689846)
to remove a page hosted on your site from Google's search results within a day.


Protect or remove all variations of the URL for the content that you want to
remove. In many cases, different URLs can point to the same page. For example:
`example.com/puppies`, `example.com/PUPPIES`, and
`example.com/petchooser?pet=puppies`. [Learn how to find the right URL to block](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9689846#zippy=%2Cweb-page-url).

## Make your removal permanent


Requests made in the Removals tool last for about 6 months. To permanently block a page
from Google Search results, take one of the following actions:

- **Remove or update the content on your page** . This is the most secure way to prevent your information from appearing in other search engines that might not respect the `noindex` tag. It also ensures that other people can't access your page.
- **Password-protect your page**. Limiting access to your page enables the right users to view your page, while preventing Googlebot and other web crawlers from accessing it.
- **Add a [`noindex` tag](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/block-indexing)
  to your page** . A `noindex` tag only blocks your page from showing up in Google search results. Users and other search engines that don't support `noindex` can still access your page.

> [!WARNING]
> Don't use robots.txt as a way to block your page. Learn more about the [limitations of robots.txt](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/robots/intro#understand-the-limitations-of-a-robots.txt-file).
