It starts with a search.
Your name. Your business. Your brand.
Then boom—front and centre:
A Brisbane Times article with your name splashed across it, and not in a good way.
Even if the story is:
- 📆 Outdated
- ❌ Biased
- 🔍 Taken out of context
…it’s right there for all to see.
If you’re a business owner in Fortitude Valley, a professional in Toowong, or running a growing service in Logan, this kind of public exposure on Google can stop you dead in your tracks.
But here’s the truth no one tells you:
👉 You’re not stuck with it.
👉 Reputation Station can help remove or bury it—permanently.
📰 Why Brisbane Times Articles Stick in Google Australia
Brisbane Times is owned by Nine Entertainment, which means it’s a high-authority domain trusted by Google. Their stories, even if minor or irrelevant, often:
- Appear on Page 1 of Google
- Show up on news carousels
- Stick in your autocomplete
- Are quoted or shared by other media outlets
That means your name, even if mentioned once, becomes entangled in Google’s long memory. And no matter how much you’ve moved on, it follows you.
🤯 Real-Life Consequences of a Bad Brisbane Times Article
We’ve seen it all. Articles that were:
- Based on a dispute that’s been resolved
- Published during legal proceedings that were dropped
- Written using public records but without your side of the story
- Amplified by social media, causing embarrassment and trolling
This has cost our clients:
- 💼 Job offers
- 💳 Credit approvals
- 🤝 Business partnerships
- 🧠 Peace of mind
Imagine trying to get ahead in Brisbane’s competitive property market, only to be Googled by a client and have them read an article about a business setback from five years ago. Or picture a health professional in Ipswich losing referrals because of one badly framed story.
It’s not just annoying—it’s damaging your future.
🤔 “Can I Just Contact Brisbane Times to Remove the Article?”
You can try.
But here’s what we’ve seen 9 times out of 10:
- No response
- A refusal citing “public interest”
- Editorial teams that stand by the story regardless of its impact
- Removal requests being ignored unless legally compelled
Even if the article is updated or amended, Google still shows the original version unless action is taken on the search engine side.
🛠️ Here’s What Reputation Station Does to Fix It
We’re not a blog giving you steps to try—we’re a full-service reputation team that does the work for you.
1. 🔍 We Audit the Article and Its Impact
We look at where the article is ranking, what keywords it’s appearing for, how strong its SEO is, and whether it’s legally or ethically questionable.
2. 📬 We Launch Takedown Requests (If Viable)
If there are grounds—like factual errors, defamation, or harm—we go directly to Brisbane Times and Nine’s editorial/legal departments.
3. 🚫 We Attempt Google De-Indexing
In many cases, especially when public interest has faded or harm is evident, Google Australia will remove the article from search results even if it stays online.
4. 📈 We Launch SEO Suppression Campaigns
This is where the real work kicks in: we flood Google with positive, high-authority content that reflects who you are today. Interviews, bios, business profiles, customer reviews—built and published to push the bad stuff down.
5. 🧱 We Rebuild Your Search Presence
No more panic-googling yourself. We create a safe, strong, and search-optimised digital footprint around your name.
