Solve : Old website problem, please advise.?

Answer»

 I'm on the web ministry TEAM for Trinity Baptist Church in Lebanon Oregon. If you use Google and search for "trinity baptist church, lebanon oregon" the very first site that shows in the search results is www.lebanonfellowship.com. This is our old website, launched by a former pastor. All attempts to contact him (across the country) for the information we need have failed. We're making a new site for our church, but we want to get rid of this one. We don't know who hosts it, we don't have any admin log in information. Not to MENTION it doesn't have the correct information on it for the community.

How can we get rid of this site? Or at least make sure our new site is listed above the defunct one? Please be kind if I didn't use the correct lingo Thanks to any who read this.

Good evening

Hopefully it helps, Mike Your only recourse would be contacting google.If your website is actively updated and the old one has been defunct (as you said) then Google pagerank will eventually figure this out and yours will outrank the old one. If you do not have any hosting information or LOGIN information for the old site, than it is, effectively, not your site. The frequency of a site updating is CONSIDERED rather strongly, so if yours is updated semi-regularly it will not take long to outrank the old one anyway.
