Home → Learn → How to check your online reputation before clients, employers or dates search you
Search self-auditMost reputation problems are discovered too late — after a client goes quiet, an employer hesitates or a partner searches a name. A simple search audit shows what needs monitoring, challenging or strengthening.
Send the exact name, Google result, link, review or search phrase. FMNO will map the risk before recommending monitoring, removal review, review defence or repair.
Use your full name, quoted name, old names, nicknames, business names, suburb, city, job title, review terms and risk words. Check web results, images, videos, news and review profiles.
Titles, snippets and images can matter as much as the page itself. Screenshot the result, URL, date and search phrase so changes can be tracked.
Group results into positive assets, neutral listings, outdated items, bad reviews, complaint pages, old articles, images and associated-name risks. Each group needs a different response.
If there are too few accurate assets, build them. If a result may breach policy, document it. If new issues keep appearing, set up monitoring.

If this sounds like your situation, send the name, business, links, reviews or search terms privately. We will map the issue before recommending alerts, removal review, review defence or a repair plan.
FixMyNameOnline™ is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. No ranking, removal, review-removal, de-indexing or search outcome is guaranteed.
It can help reduce personalization, but location and device still influence results. Track the exact search phrase and date.
Save evidence before reacting. Then decide whether it is a removal/review issue, monitoring issue or positive-footprint issue.
