1. Build a URL inventory

Search your name with relevant locations and save matching publisher pages, image URLs, and social posts. Note the date checked, content shown, and any inaccurate details. Avoid confusing another person’s record with your own.

2. Check the current request route

Use the publisher’s official contact, privacy, or removal instructions. Do not rely on an old email address or an unverified third-party form. Our publisher guides can help you organize the review.

3. Prepare a focused request

Identify the exact URL and the action you seek. Explain relevant errors or a later case outcome concisely. Share documents only when the selected process requires them, after verifying the recipient.

4. Record and follow up

Keep the submission date, request reference, response, and next action. Follow the stated process and use the same reference when following up.

5. Verify the source

Open the original URL after a confirmation. Check whether the page, photo, or relevant details changed. A search snippet alone does not prove source removal.

6. Check search results separately

If the source has changed but Google still shows old information, review the outdated-content refresh process. For live content, see the different routes in our Google Search guide.

7. Track other copies

Recheck the known URLs and search for additional matches. Independent copies may need separate requests. Monitoring can help identify new results, but it cannot guarantee prevention.
