Overview

Cleaning Up the Damage, Not Just Investigating It

Investigation and documentation answer the question of what happened and who's responsible. Reputation cleanup answers a different question: what do we do about it now? Through Hartzer Consulting, LLC, I offer online reputation management and defamation cleanup services built on the same technical SEO and search engine expertise that has defined my consulting career for more than 25 years. These services are available whether or not a matter involves litigation.

What's Involved

How Reputation Cleanup Works

Search Result Assessment

A full review of what currently appears in search results for your name or business, including the specific defamatory content and its ranking position.

Content Removal & Takedowns

Preparing and submitting platform-specific removal, de-indexing, and takedown requests, using the correct process for each platform.

Suppression & Search Cleanup

Ethical, search-engine-compliant strategies to build and elevate accurate, positive content above defamatory results — not manipulation, but legitimate SEO.

Ongoing Monitoring

Continuous monitoring so new defamatory content is caught and addressed early, before it spreads or gets indexed widely.
