        Step 1: Use robots.txt to block Google bot  crawling directories of your site

        Step 2: Once you've blocked crawler access to the directory, use Google webmaster tools to remove directory URL from Google index

            "I would think carefully if that is what you really want to do and why. You could always remove some pages or edit site content"

            he did say he wants the site completely gone, plus it can be reversed in WMT if you make a mistake and want to restore it in the index.

              This is also the way I would do it as well.

              Were you able to remove your site? Do you still need any advice for this question?
