Google search for my site turns up non-existent pages

Hi-

 

I have a site set up on force.com with a custom url. All the links on the site direct to pages with a long url along the lines of free.force.com/mydomain/page, but this doesn't show up in the browser. Somehow, when I search for the site on Google, it returns pages that doesn't exist, and clicking the links take you to the force.com Page Not  Found page.

 

The home url is free.force.com/mydomain. All subpages in the markup are linked as free.force.com/mydomain/page. The custom url is set as www.mydomain.com. Somehow Google is returning pages called www.mydomain.com/Home and www.mydomain.com/about-us. I don't have any pages with those names defined in my static resources (or at least, I never made them).

 

Any suggestions as to how to deal with this? Been looking through the boards and haven't seen anything directly referencing a problem like this, but maybe has to do with submitting the sitemap to Google webmaster tools and the robots.txt funtionality and all that?

 

Thanks,

Karl
