GONE
No longer in name search results
The Situation
- A social media post had been indexed by Google and was showing up in name searches for the client’s name
- The post was made by a former associate and contained accusations the client disputed
- It had been live long enough to gain engagement and earn a stable search position
- The content was not behind a login — it was publicly visible and fully indexed, accessible to anyone who searched the client’s name
The Challenge
- In financial services, regulatory scrutiny and client due diligence mean that reputation matters on record
- A searchable social media post with disputed professional claims can surface in background checks, compliance reviews, and prospect research
- The client’s own professional profiles were being outranked by this post for certain keyword combinations
What We Did
- Assessed the post against platform content policies to identify the applicable violation grounds
- Engagement handled by Erase.com’s content removal service, with platform violation grounds documented across the 21-day review cycle.
- Built a documented case for removal — including the disputed nature of the claims and the specific policy violation basis
- Submitted through the appropriate escalation channel with supporting evidence
- Followed through the review process over 3 weeks until removal was confirmed
