Let’s be honest — seeing your name on Google next to something negative, irrelevant, or just plain wrong… it feels like a punch in the stomach. It doesn’t matter if it’s true or false. It doesn’t matter if it was 10 years ago or last week. If it’s on the first page, it defines you. And that’s not right.
People don’t dig for context. They see a headline, a link, maybe a mugshot or a dodgy post — and suddenly they think they know who you are. What’s worse? That thing could follow you into job interviews, client meetings, dates, and even conversations with your own family.
We hear this every single day at ReputationAce.co.uk. And yeah — we fix it.
You’re probably thinking, “But it’s Google… what can you even do?” More than you think. In fact, we’ve built an entire business removing and suppressing this kind of stuff. From full-blown news articles to nasty Reddit posts and even legal records that never should’ve been public in the first place.
The first thing you need to know is this: Google doesn’t host the content — it just points to it. So the trick isn’t convincing Google you’re a good person. It’s about either getting the source to take it down, or making sure no one ever sees it again. That’s where we come in.
We’ve worked with lawyers, teachers, politicians, musicians, doctors, influencers — you name it. Everyone’s got something online they wish would disappear. And in most cases, it can.
Sometimes we go straight to the source and ask for removal. Sounds simple, but trust me, it takes the right words, the right tone, and a real legal framework behind it. If that doesn’t work? We hit Google with a request to remove it from their index — especially if it violates UK GDPR laws or falls into the category of “no longer relevant.” You’d be amazed what qualifies under that umbrella in 2025.
But here’s the secret sauce most people miss: suppression. Even if you can’t remove something, you can bury it so deep no one will ever find it. We create content that ranks above the bad stuff — press, bios, directories, interviews, features, business profiles. It’s not fake. It’s not fluff. It’s just you — but the version people should actually be seeing.
So if you’re here because your name’s bringing up something that makes you feel sick, anxious, or stuck… you’re not alone. And you’re not powerless. You don’t need to fight this with guesswork or live under a shadow you didn’t deserve.
We do this every single day. Quietly. Legally. Properly.
Want us to take a look and tell you what we can do? No pressure, no hard sell — just real talk.
