Does Google De-Indexing Help with Website SEO?

Google will remove websites from its search results if they believe they are obligated to do so by law. If the site contains illegal content, such as copyright infringed content then the sites links can be removed from Google searches entirely.

In order to remove copyright infringement a DMCA Takedown notice must be filed. Often it is best practice to file for removal from the infringing website first, once the content is removed from the website it will also come down from Google search results. To get started, submit the DMCA.com Takedown from here: Takedown Form

Most countries accept the standard DMCA Takedown Notice form and process.

Which service providers do and do not accept the standard DMCA takedown notice form and process is dynamic and constantly changing. DMCA.com professionals are aware of these constant changes and are able to convert the information submitted through the standard DMCA Takedown signup form to suit specific countries and/or service providers within the legal process they require.
