Google - changed servers and old site keeps coming up

[hibeesmad]

I recently hosted my old website on another website's hosting until I had finished the new one and the old site is appearing on Google and the new site is not.

e.g
new site hosted here
www.mywebsite.com

old site hosted here
www.otherdomain.com/mywebsite/

I have removed the old site from the server, however it is still coming up in Google, can I remove it?

Hope somebody can help,

Johnny.

Do you have access to the old domain? If so the best way is to 301 to it - then you get to keep all the linkjuice.

Yes, it was an old website I done. I still have access to the server.

I don't know how to do a 301, can you please explain.

Cheers.

Will using a 301 delete the old url, as this is appearing at the bottom of the description in Google, or does it just re-direct it? Sorry I'm new to this. Are there any way of deleting the old url?

The new website is here

www.thewashhoose.com

the old website was here, I have since removed it
www.lovehatetattoo.co.uk/wash/index.html

The old website is appearing in google and the new one is not at all.

Would this 305 be correct?
redirect 301 /wash/index.html http://www.thewashhoose.com/index.html

So will Google update and remove this old link in a couple of weeks? I have submitted new robot and sitemap files, but don't know if this will make a difference. How long does Googlebot take to crawl your website? Will it update once it has?

cheers.

No, read the first link on google, it shows how to do site-wide redirects properly.

I have read this and still don't 100% understand. Will this method still work if I have removed the old url that is appearing on Google?

Thanks.
