Suppressed Negative Links from Google Results
How our strategic ORM approach helped a client from the U.S. reclaim her digital reputation within just 5 months.
Case Study
Case Overview
In February 2025, a U.S.-based woman approached us after becoming a victim of online defamation. Her ex-boyfriend had posted multiple negative articles tarnishing her personal reputation. These five articles appeared prominently on Google’s first page.
She contacted ReputaForge seeking expert guidance to suppress these damaging links and restore her authentic digital presence.
- Negative Backlinks: 5
- Estimated Duration: 6–8 months
- Actual Completion: 5 months
- Team: 2 ORM Specialists
Understanding the Challenge
Before implementation, our team conducted a complete digital audit to evaluate the visibility and influence of negative content. The analysis included:
- Assessing each link’s domain and page authority.
- Evaluating content length, publication history, and update frequency.
- Monitoring ranking volatility and SERP fluctuations.
- Investigating the backlinks supporting negative pages.
Based on our assessment, a 6–8 month window was forecasted for successful suppression and rank replacement.
Strategic Plan and Campaign Setup
We shared a structured roadmap outlining milestones, deliverables, and transparent progress tracking. The client appreciated our clarity and approved campaign initiation.
- Monthly implementation roadmap with measurable deliverables.
- Bi-weekly reporting for real-time progress tracking.
- Approval process for content and asset deployment.
Our two ORM specialists developed high-value positive assets and executed the content strategy precisely as planned.
Execution and Results
Within the first 30 days, the campaign started showing tangible results. Seven new or optimized assets began ranking among the top 20 Google results for the client’s name.
By month five, all negative links were successfully suppressed beyond the top 20 positions — ahead of schedule.
The client continued through the original 8-month plan to further strengthen her positive presence.
