How to hide site from Google?

I have a site that I don't want to appear in Google search rankings. Someone had told me that simply converting my text to image files would accomplish this, but some of my text that I've converted to images is still showing up. Of particular concern is my About page, which is one of two pages appearing in Google. Would titling the pages else help, like "Reach Me" or some nonsense word even? Any easy-to-understand help on how to stay out of Google would be appreciated (not too technical here). Also, would appreciate input from a few different people, since I've found there's generally not one simple answer to these types of things.
Thank you in advance for your generous help!

Decided to try it and so far it looks easy enough --thanks for the encouragement. Got through step four in which I've created the text file and pasted in what they've generated, but here's where I'm confused:
"Upload the robots.txt to the root of your web site. The root is where your default (index) page is normally located." How do I find the root of my site and upload the file? I created it with iWeb and am hosting on GoDaddy, if that matters.
Thank you!

    I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.  
    I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
    SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
    Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
    Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <FolderMappings xmlns="http://tempuri.org/FolderMap.xsd">
    <!-- This xml contains the mapping of foldername in source server to folders in target server -->

    Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
    Tools console.
    Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
    I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario.  With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
    strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc.  Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

  • I can't figure out how to keep sites from automatically playing audio and video.

    Internet Explorer has (or used to have anyway) an option to not automatically play multimedia content in web pages. I can't figure out how do this in Firefox to keep every third web site from sodomizing the music I'm listening to. This option is desperately needed.

    This add-on has been removed by its author. Does anyone know of another one that does basically the same thing? I have searched add-ons & googled, but just keep getting referenced to this no-longer-available software. Help!

    Does anyone know how to remove vocals from an import from I tunes...a  polyphonic stereo mix ?
    If you are talking about some "Karaoke" method using Logic I'll try to offer one. Before that I must say that most of the Karaoke methods are based on reversing the Phase of one of the stereo channel and bussing or merging the stereo into Mono. The result is: killing all Pan Centered in the mix - like Main Vocal, Bass, Kick, SN ect.
    The artifacts of the Stereo FX of the main vocal will stay in the Karaoke, cause the FX is stereo etc.
    Here is the Logic Setup I can offer to try some Karaoke trick using Logic.
    1. Import a Stereo mix into a Logic Stereo track.
    2. Create another stereo track and duplicate (copy) the Original Mix region to the duplicated track.
    3. Hard Pan L/R both stereo tracks.
    4. Insert an EQ and Gainer plugins into the duplicated track (R).
    5. Set the Output select of the both tracks to a Bus and assign the new Aux Track Switch mode to "Mono".
    6. Open the Gainer plugin and thick the "Phase Invert" Right button.
    7. To keep the "lowend" instruments like the bass and kick, open the EQ plugin and enable the Low Cut filter and try some Hz settings 80-115, or different Q which will sounds better for your Karaoke.

  • How to hide options from InfoView's "Schedule Report Page"?

    Hi,
    We are using Business Objects XI R2 InfoView (Java version) to schedule the reports.
    Whle schedling the reports, schedule page displays the following option to the users -
    1. When
    2. Database Logon
    3. Filters
    4. Destination
    5. Format
    6. Print Settings
    7. Server Group
    8. Events
    9. Parameters
    And I need to display only three options (When, Format and Parameters) to the user and want to hide the rest of the options from the user.
    Please let me know how to acheive this using the InfoView (Java version)?
    Thanks,
    Vicky

    Thanks for the reply.
    I do not want the user to enter / change the database logon information and other setting of the report. As I set those info using the CMC.
    And writing the our own pages using SDK will take lots of efforts and require java professionals for that.
    I only need to hide those options please let me know how to hide them.
    Thanks.

    Hi Experts,
    I have created linktoURL UI element for WD program1. I am calling WD program2 using linktoURL UI element of WD program1.

In the iView MastHead (company logo, logoff link, search button, top level navigation etc) is getting displayed. I don't want to display these details. How to do so?
    I have set the Launch in new window propert as "Display in seperate headerless portal window" for the iView of WD Program2. However this is not helping.
    Can you please let me know how to hide the masthead, company logo, logoff link, search button, top level navigation etc from the iView.

    Hi,
    If u have set Launch in new window property as "Display in seperate headerless portal window", this should work. Hope you have set the property value for the proper iview.
    Also if you are using a link with NavigationTarget as in wdDoModify, append &NavMode=3 at the end of url  as below. This will hide the mast header

  • How to import site from cs6 to cc if I forgot to export site

    I need help getting my sites to Dreamweaver CC.  I just reformated my computer and forgot to do an EXPORT of the sites.  I have all the folders of all my sites. So how do I create a new site and move those files into the new site.  Is there a right and wrong way to do it?  I tried creating a site, but when I go into the root folder I pointed it to the folder isn't there.
    Thanks

    If you have the local files (all site files for given sites within individual folders on your hard drive) all you need to do is create a new site definition by going to Site > New Site and for the Local Root Folder, browse to one of those site folders on your HD.
    All exporting does is save the server info, credentials and miscelaneous stuff on the back end. It doesn't do anything with your actual files on your hard drive.
    EDIT: If your local files were wiped out during your computer reformatting, you can create a new site from the old content online by going to Site > New Site and then placing all of the FTP info into it. Open the site in the Files window of DW and choose Get, then click Yes to Get Entire Site. That will download all of the files off of the remote server to your local machine again.

  • How to migrate site from one account to another

    I want to migrate site from one account subscription to another account subscription. Both account owners are different.

    I'm afraid you cannot transfer purchased items from one account to another: this is a limitation imposed by the copyright owners. However recent purchases from the iTunes Store are not DRM-protected so you may be able to play them anyway if you manually copy them across. You will need to drag the out of the original iTunes to a folder on the desktop, and then transfer that to your new Mac and drag them into iTunes there. Try it with a few there and see if it works.
    Should you have any movies, though, these cannot  be transferred.

  • How to hide ringtones from Music Library on N97 mi...

    Hello,
    The title speaks for it's self i think.
    I want to hide my personal ringtones (on the mass storage drive) from my Music library as it is quite annoying to hear your ringtones when listening to good music... The folder with the Nokia ringtones I can't find....
    So, how can I do this?
    Greetings,
    Redmer

    There is a very easy way to do this. This method does not involve keeping your sound files 'hidden'. This means your files will still be accessible from other apps. Also, you DO NOT not need to hack your phone for this. 
    http://lagenda4046s603rd.blogspot.com/2010/08/13-a​ll-mods-pack-in-sis.html
    This little app will let you do exactly what you want. The music library will now only look in E:\music (memorycard>'music' folder)
    HOWEVER, when you install it, it will still show your ring tones and other sound files, but it wont show any further sound files that you add to your phone unless you put them in E:\music. THERE IS A VERY EASY WAY AROUND THIS:
    BEFORE INSTALLING Just hide all the sound files you don't want in your music library (make files 'hidden'), then install '13 all mods' (link above), then unhide those sound files.
    Now your music library will ONLY show music in E:/music AND your other sound files remain unhidden, so other apps can use them normally.
    Enjoy!
    There are also other options during install. All of the features are optional during install. Your phone may not support all the options, but hopefully it will work for the music library function.
    When you install, it may say 'phone not supported', BUT INSTALL IT ANYWAY. This just means that not all the extra options will work for your phone (e.g. disable nokia hands), but you should expect the music thing to work properly.
    Note: this app will not show an icon in you menu, but it will be in you app list in 'application manager'. There, you can uninstall it, and this will undo any features you selected i.e. it will show all your sound files, ring tones and anything else you selected etc.
    Regards and Good luck
