Fix My Name Online: what it does, and what it doesn’t

Fix My Name Online is a set of free, self-service tools for dealing with what shows up when people search your name. You tell the free check what you found, it gives you a plan, and you send everything yourself.

The short version

Take one link at a time. The site that runs a page decides what’s on it, and Google decides what shows in search, so ask the site first and then ask Google to catch up. Start by saving the link and a dated screenshot.

Free · No account · Nothing sent to us

Get the steps, letters and official forms for your situation.

Start free check

The free check

You pick what’s showing up and answer a few questions in your browser. Nothing is sent to us, and we don’t search Google for you.

Your plan

Your answers point to a plan: a request to the publisher, a platform report, a Google form, or legal help first if it’s urgent or still before a court.

The routes it covers

Each plan shows the routes that fit: a publisher request, a platform report, Google’s refresh tool, a privacy request, or making sure accurate information of your own is easy to find.

You decide every step

You check every letter and form before you send it. Nothing is sent for you.

Keep checking

For bigger problems, checking regularly and publishing accurate information of your own helps over time.

Questions

Can Fix My Name Online remove every result?

No. We don’t remove anything, and no one can promise a removal: publishers, platforms and search engines decide. The free check gives you a plan, a letter you can edit and the official forms for your situation, and you send them yourself.

Is the first step private?

Yes. The free check runs in your browser, and nothing you type is sent to us. Nothing is published, sent or submitted unless you do it yourself.

What if a result cannot be removed?

Then the focus usually shifts to accurate, current information of your own, such as a profile or work page, so one bad result is not the whole story.

Fix My Name Online is a self-service tool, not a law firm, and this isn’t legal advice. Publishers, platforms and search engines make their own decisions; no one can promise a result. Need a lawyer?

Want your letters for one link saved online?

Optional · US$19 once

The free plan has everything you need to act. The letter pack saves a request letter, a follow-up and a second letter for one link, online with your dates and notes. You still send everything yourself.
