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.

List every search that triggers it
Check full name, old names, nicknames, locations, business names and image searches. Embarrassing results often appear only for certain combinations.
Classify the result
It may be outdated, inaccurate, sensitive, review-related, image-related, copied, defamatory, private or simply lacking context. Each type has different options.
Keep your response in proportion
Avoid public arguments, fake content or posting lots of new pages. A quiet, specific request to the website is usually safer.
Add accurate information you control
A current bio, work profile or business page helps people see you as you are now.
Questions
Will this make the embarrassing result disappear?
No responsible service can promise that. The free check shows the routes that may apply, and you decide what to do.
Do I have to explain everything publicly?
No. Only publish information you’re comfortable sharing. Sensitive details can stay private unless there is a clear reason to publish.
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?
