Dear goodms,

Just to make sure I understand you correctly: It is your own website,
and though it is outdated Google still lists it, so you want it to be
removed?

Regards,
Scriptor

Just to make sure I understand you correctly: It is your own website,
and though it is outdated Google still lists it, so you want it to be
removed?        It is a website that we authorized a third party to
post with our information, however, the contents have since been
updated, yet the old site still appears when doing a google search.

Hi there,

Outdated pages cannot be manually removed from Google's search
results.  The spidering process is fully automated.  You need only
wait for the Googlebot to visit again for the search results to
reflect the update:

" When you update information on your site it does not automatically
update instantly in Google's index. Rather, Google's index is updated
approximately once a month after our robots have crawled more than 3
billion web pages. This process is totally automated, so updated or
outdated link submissions are not necessary. Changes to your site's
content will be noted by the next crawl. Due to the volume of sites in
our index, we cannot manually update pages on an individual basis."
