Possible To Redirect Google Search for AGOL Web App?

Question

I've redesigned the school finder/attendance area app for our district. I retired the previous school finder and deleted it from our AGOL account. When I search Google for "PPS School Finder" the top link goes to the web app that no longer exists. The second link down goes to the new school finder. Is there anything I can do about this, or will it correct itself in time?

Hi Levi Cecil‌ -

Google should correct this over time as their index updates. Here is our reference on it: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/faq.htm#anchor66

You can also get in touch with Google about the issue: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6332384?hl=en&ref_topic=1724262

Hope this helps,
