Burying Negative Results in Google

[Justin Philipps]

Hi, I have been working to remove the negative search result from Google but I have been having a hard time removing it because it is a very big forum website with a lot of viewers. Almost two months have passed, and the negative search result is still on the first page despite having already created a lot of positive links for my website. Do you guys have any idea or useful methods I can try to remove the negative results from the first page? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks!

What methods are you using to bury your results?

uumm... out SEO the negative site links

If it's bad enough you can try contacting Google, but doubt you'll get far. Usually has to be copyright/trademark infringement, ect.

Might help to know "how" it's negative.

I've been creating a lot of profiles, blog posts and forum posts about our brand to make those appear on search results instead of the negative results when someone Googles our brand.

Hi, the brand is an online trading company, the negative results are actually forum threads and blog posts that says something bad about our brand. Unfortunately, when Googling our brand, the negative results are appearing instead of our content.

It's not that bad actually. There are only two negative results on the first page. The first one, however, is appearing on the first spot.

Build positive PR around the web and make sure the content in the posts are keyword specific. Target the keyword that the negative listing is ranking for and after you're done with all the posts you should see some movement.

After you get all the posts up for the specific keyword, you'll need to run a tiered backlink campaign in order to boost each page where you have the positive content about your website. This will boost your own website and each of the pages you made on other websites. I've done this exact process to push down negative listings.

It could take 30 days or more, so don't get discouraged if the negative listing is still there after a week.
