What we help with
News coverage that won't go away
Most clients come to us with several articles at once, and we work them in parallel. The longer a story sits on page one, the more it shapes how people perceive you.
An old article still ranking for your name
Years-old coverage refusing to drop in rankings, surfacing every time someone searches for you.
Coverage of a charge that was dropped
Reporting on a matter that was withdrawn, dismissed, or never proceeded, where the coverage hasn't been updated.
Inaccurate or misleading reporting
Articles with factual errors, missing context, or an angle the publisher hasn't agreed to fix.
Articles from defunct publications
Coverage from a site that no longer operates, but whose pages are still indexed and ranking.
Defamatory news content
Articles where defamation grounds exist. We coordinate with legal counsel on the takedown pathway.
Wire-syndicated coverage across dozens of sites
The same story replicated through AAP, Reuters, or similar feeds, appearing on outlet after outlet.

What we do
Legal pathways and search suppression, run in parallel
For news content, the workable paths are legal removal where grounds exist and search suppression for everything else. We run both at once, across every article in scope.
Legal pathway coordination
We work with legal counsel on takedown notices, defamation actions, and statutory remedies (eSafety, NCII) where Australian law applies.
Search suppression
The primary path for news. We outrank the articles on the queries that surface them: your name, your business, related searches.
Authoritative profile development
Publish credible profile content on high-authority domains so accurate information ranks ahead of the articles.
Positive content creation
Original articles, features, and assets under your name or brand, designed to occupy and hold page-one positions.
Targeted SEO
SEO work focused on the exact queries that surface the articles. Not generic optimisation, specific to your situation.
Individual case strategy
Every matter assessed individually. Every article has different facts, jurisdictions, and realistic outcomes.
When removal isn't possible
Bury the articles with content you control
Some news coverage can't be removed, particularly factually accurate reporting in established outlets. In those cases, suppression is the path: a footprint of accurate, authoritative content under your name that outranks the articles on the queries that matter, one article or many.
- Authoritative profiles on high-domain platforms
- Factual, compliant content under your name or brand
- Targeted SEO on the exact queries that surface the articles
- Continuous monitoring so new coverage doesn't outrank your footprint
Long-term stability, not short-term tactics.
