Blogger (also known as Blogspot) is a widely used blogging platform owned by Google. It allows users to publish content to personal blogs easily and quickly, often ranking high in search engine results due to its popularity and keyword relevance. However, it’s possible for individuals to misuse Blogspot for posting harmful, false, or defamatory content. Here are methods to address and remove such content from Blogger.com.
We recently announced that we are now offering Wikipedia page creation services. Although our CEO is an expert in Wikipedia editing for over 8 years, it was not being offered via Reputation Stars until now.
“Wikipedia page creation has become very tough in the past few years. There are many shady freelancers offering Wiki page creation services on freelancer sites who do a very poor job,” Pierre Zarokian, Reputation Stars’ CEO, said. “The admins have been getting tougher and tougher on their notability criteria. It takes a real expert to know what the chances of success would be.”
The guidelines of Wikipedia state that you need to have significant news coverage to qualify, but this criteria is very vague so the decision often may depend on the reviewing admin. Some admins may be easier than others in their criteria. If you have at least 10 or so news coverage, you may qualify, so you can send us your details for evaluation.
In case you should not qualify, we also can post you on some alternate Wiki sites that are much easier to get in, such as Everybodywiki, Wikialpha, Wikitia or Fandom.

management company or an attorney that knows how to get it removed. However, you cannot just hire any attorney, because they will simply take your money to send a legal letter and they would not even know where to send it. This site makes their ownership identity well hidden. The attorney would need to spend hours researching their whereabouts and charging you a fee for that as well.
Finally, if the attorney is able to send them a letter, there are no guarantees that it would be removed and no attorney would give you a money back guarantee.
However, we offer a FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. We also normally can get content removed within a week.
You can contact us for a quote for removal and if the full removal may be out of your budget, we can also get just your picture removed for much much less. Please complete the form on the right or call us. —>
In today’s digital age, when someone is searching online for any type of business, the first website they seek out is Google. Regardless of the size of the company, the location or the industry, consumers will go to Google to learn more information about a particular company. In fact, some of the first things people may learn about a particular business will originate from what appears in a Google search.
What does this mean for business owners? It means that having a positive online presence can go a long way. Business owners who are trying to gain customers through online searches should do everything in their power to promote positive brand awareness. One of the easiest ways to do this is by creating a Google My Business (GMB) profile for your company.
Businesses that have a complete GMB profile will show up through Google Search console, as well as appear on Maps when someone searches a given business name. Another feature that business owners can utilize through GMB is their automatic positive review sharing. This allows businesses to share suggested 4 and 5-star reviews as customer testimonials via Google Posts.
When creating a Google Post, business owners can include a clever call to action with the link to a particular service page, which can strategically be used when sharing reviews. Also, posts can feature up to 10 images and videos, which can help add more context to a specific review when applicable.
Is Google using a new Algorithm? Perhaps. Google watchers and online reputation management teams are reporting that Ripoff Report and a few complaint sites seems to have lost some visibility in Google’s search results at the start of November.
Our CEO Pierre Zarokian first noticed the change around November 6th, after he checked different keywords related to his clients. He found only one that was still ranking high on Google search.
On Twitter, as well as on several private forum’s, there was barely any mention of the event at the time. In recent days, others have acknowledged that they have also noticed that something is amiss.
The RipoffReport website is a site where consumers can go to complain about business owners, products, and services. Because the website is listed so high in Google rankings, being listed there can destroy or seriously damage people’s online reputations and businesses. The site has a strict no removal policy, and has even defied court orders which demand the removal of information.
Other complaint sites which have also lost ratings include ScamBook, PissedConsumer, ComplaintsBoard, DirtyScam, and Consumer Affairs.
This has led some industry analysts to conclude that Google has indeed made changes to its algorithm in order to downgrade the ranking of these types of sites.
While it has been available on Facebook for quite some time now, a verification badge is something that is quite new to Instagram. It is pretty easy to verify yourself and start the process.
You must request verification
When you go into your setting, you will see an area that will help you upload your ID. This will be the first step in possibly getting your verification badge. You will need to follow the right steps and go from there.
Make sure to use the right ID
It is important that you use a government-issued ID when trying to get your verification badge. Don’t try to use a school ID or library card when getting your verification badge. This will look amateur and admins will most likely just dismiss your request.
You now just have to wait
Unless you are a minor celebrity, an established business, or someone who is searched for on a regular basis, you might not get your badge. It really is just a waiting game to see if the admins feels as though you are legitimate enough to have your own badge.
While getting an ID badge may be easier to apply for now, it really just depends if you are in the public eye enough for admins to feel like you even need this badge. Using the right ID is a great way to get started. You will be able to make sure you have all of the right items in place to help you have a better chance of getting your badge.
UPDATE 3/25/2020: Since this article was writen, Nik Richie is no longer the owner of thedirty. However, the site still does not remove content by request.
TheDirty.com which is a website that allows anyone to submit “dirt” on anyone, such as information on cheating exes, has been known not to ever remove posts, even though they offer a removal request page. There are a few exceptions and these have to do with copyright violations. Our company has dealt with several individuals listed on TheDirty who have sent in multiple removal requests which have been denied.
A search of the DMCA copyright violation notices at chillingeffects.org will show that several individuals have unsuccessfully tried to remove content by sending copyright violation notices to Google (and presumably TheDirty), but most of the time, neither Google nor TheDirty have complied. However, there are a few times that TheDirty and Google have removed content, mainly having to do when a photographer or someone with legal standing has requested. So unless there are some copyrighted images that you are the owner of or unless you have some legal representation, you may be out of luck in removing content from The Dirty, but even then the chances are very slim.
We found an individual that has sent in multiple emails for removal, but Nik Richie, the owner of thedirty, has refused to remove them and instead he has posted the full removal email requests, making the matters worst for this individual. In this case both the original poster and the victim have sent in request without any luck. The victim had even offered to pay for the removal, but Nik declined. Below you can see the full postings:

Nik even posted this on top of the first post:
“*Update: Dear World, I’m not removing this post. Please stop asking. It won’t happen.”
There have been numerous lawsuits against TheDirty, but with the exception one case that is still pending, all have been lost due to the CDA law which protects public forums from liability of what others post.

Google first launched its Instant Search feature several years ago. At the time, this function would display the results of a search as the user was typing. This kind of real-time search aligned well with Google’s mission to emphasize speed. The company dubbed the feature: “Google Instant”, but it is effectively dead as of this moment. Why did Google pull the plug? Read on to learn more.
Google Instant was first launched in 2010, and it was under the leadership of Marissa Mayer. She intended to create a functional that would be responsive to the user’s query and deliver results faster. It used predictive technology to learn what users wanted, and served results for better or worse.
Today, more than half of all searches are carried out on a mobile device. Instant Search no longer offers the same value to users that it once did, and so Google has discontinued the service entirely. You might recall the considerable media attention it garnered when it first launched.
Google’s new search feature, rather than suggestion websites to visit, will now show users some suggested search queries. User will be able to drill down further with a few extra clicks, but the shift is subtle that most will barely notice it.
For Google, this move will help bring the mobile and desktop experiences closer together. It will also do away with an uncomfortable feature many desktop users had already found ways to disable.
This won’t completely alter the landscape of search, but it will bring back some emphasis on competition for the search page.
Depending on the search term, these changes may help or hurt keywords related to your reputation management project.
MyEx.com has been prosecuted by the FTC and Nevada. The revenge porn siteurged users to “Add an Ex” and “Submit Pics and Stories of Your Ex” for ratings from other registered users. The results of this prosecution have ensured the removal of MyEx.com and that its owner, Neil Infante, is never allowed to operate again.
This vile web page charged victims amounts that ranged from $500 to $2800 in order to take down images and intimate content from MyEx.com. This media was open for public comment and scrutiny from anyone who joined the website. The site also frequently listed the victim’s full names, dates of birth, email addresses and other contact information which was used to harass.
MyEx.com’ horrible tactics caused real harm to the individuals who suffered as a result of being posted on it. Some of these victims lost jobs, relationships and ended up with a ruined life. Many paid the fees and still suffered fallout. That fallout is often what drove them to pay the fees. These intimate images were never meant to be shared, and have made victims the subject of threats and harassment.
The FTC $205,000 settlement prevents the site’s owner, Nei Infante, from ever posting intimate pics or personally identifiable information to the web again. Infante is also permanently banned from serving as an operating officer.
If you were affected by MyEx.com, take preventative action and get negative content removed immediately. Get a full audit of your web presence today.
Ripoff Report is a website setup to field anonymous complaints about a business or service, but some users post things that are untrue or damaging to your reputation. If you’re concerned about your online reputation management, read on for advice on how to remove Ripoff Report posts and salvage your presence in Google.
Social Media
If you’re worried about your appearance in search, than practicing good social media will help. Owning YouTube, Twitter and Facebook URLs from your brand will take up some of the space on page one of Google, making sure that negative content is pushed lower.
Request Removal
Ripoff Report does not typically respond to removal requests, and US laws protect them from anonymous content. However, a default judgment can help you.
DMCA
If any of the content posted belongs to you, for example the user used a picture from your website, then you can ask for removal of that copyrighted content. You’ll need to file a DMCA with the site, and with Google, but the content should vanish if you can claim you own it.
Court Ordered Removals
You can get a default judgment if you sue John Doe. This only works if the posting is anonymous. Essentially, the judge rules in your favor because the defendant doesn’t show up to prove his or her side. With that judgment, you can get websites to remove your content.
Consult a reputation Management Firm
Reputation management is a good route to pursue when you can’t find other solutions. The tips listed above may work for some of you. If the posts return, you may also need a good firm to manage these repeated incidents and reclaim your status in search.
