In my site their is a button linking to PDF. Let say current pdf url on button is http://www.abc.come/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/xyz.pdf and this url google bot has crawled. Now later after month from admin, administrator uploads new pdf let say http://www.abc.come/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/xyz-latest.pdf and updates url on button.
Issue is that googlebot is still crawling old url with xyz.pdf and giving 404 in webmaster tools.
How can we make googlebot to stop crawling old url and crawl new ones.
Thanks.
Yup you can.
Under webmaster go to Google Index -> Remove URLS. Remove you url from here and then from your app. Works for me.
I had the same issue, my solution was an entry in the .htaccess with an 410 ('gone') statuscode. After some time google stops crawling.
But I also read that Google will stop crawling when 404. But on my site it keeps crawling 404-sites.
I am showing the last 48 hours worth of articles in News Sitemap. My website got approved from Google and included in Google News, but the problem is Google News bot is crawling my previous articles again and again.
When I publish new article Google crawled my 1 or 2 previous articles along with the new article I published. I don't know why it's happening, can anyone tell me how can I resolve this issue?

You can control the Google crawl rate in Google webmaster tools.
How to check how Google robot sees my local website?
Is there an official Google tool? I've heard of one that check online websites, but what about locally site not avaible on network?
I don't think Google Webmasters Tools allow crawling or fetching local site.
Also, in addition to crawling local site, you'll have to make sure your local site or URLs don't get crawled in Google search as it will devalue your live site in future.
Thanks
You can use fetch as googlebot in webmaster tools to see how google views your site.
i want to remove the pages that i have removed from the server from google
or redirect them
the pages that i have removed from the server are
www.mysite.com/id?=9898
and
www.mysite.com/pagename.html
the new pages are
www.mysite.com/pagename
so i removed the sitemap from google and created a new one and uploaded it
my problem now is google give me crawl error because of the removed pages like www.sitename.com/contact.html and the
indexed page now are only 2 pages
why he can't see that i have removed this pages and when i search on google the removed pages still appears
Better then uploading a new sitemap, is to redirect from your old pages to your new ones. Here you can geht informations about a 301 redirect.
Your problem is, that Google in fact can not know that the pages www.blabalbal.com/id?234234 and www.blabalbal.com/speaking_url are the same page. So you have to tell Google. A good method is the redirect from above.
You should fix this, because Google maybe crawls both webpages as unique ones and comes to the conclusion that this two pages are duplicate content, which is a bad thing for your rankings.

I have an app running in Heroku.
I am using sitemap_generator to generate sitemap and save it into s3.
I have added the robots.txt to contain my sitemap location.
My question are.
How can I know my sitemap are successfully find by search engine like google?
How can I monitor my sitemap?
If my sitemap is located in my app server I can add the sitemap manually into google webmaster tools for monitoring. Because when I click on "Test/Add sitemap" in Google webmaster tools, it default to the same server.
Thanks for your help.
I got it to work.
Google has something called cross submission: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2007/10/dealing-with-sitemap-cross-submissions.html

Thanks for your help, yacc.
Let me answer your two first questions, one at a time (I'm not sure what you mean by 'how can I monitor my sitemap' so I'll skip it):
Manually submit a sitemap to Google
If you can't use Google webmaster form to submit your sitemap, use an HTTP get request to notify Google of your new site map.
If your sitemap is located at https://s3.amazonaws.com/sitemapbucket/sitemap.gz , first URL encode your sitemap URL (you can use this online URL encoder/decoder for that) then using curl or wget to submit your encoded URL to Google:
curl www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=https%3A%2F%2Fs3.amazonaws.com%2Fsitemapbucket%2Fsitemap.gz
If your request is successful you'll get a 200 answer with a message like this:
... cut ...
<body><h2>Sitemap Notification Received</h2>
<br>
Your Sitemap has been successfully added to our list of Sitemaps to crawl.
... cut ...
Checking that Google knows about your new sitemap
Open Webmaster Tools, navigate to Site sonfiguration->Sitemaps, there you should see the sitemaps that you've submited. It might take sometime for a new sitemap to show up there, so check frequently.
