Remove Fake or Harmful Google Reviews.

Bad reviews can really hurt your business. When someone searches for you online, those reviews are usually one of the first things they see. If they spot a bunch of negative comments, they may think twice about calling or visiting. Even just a few bad reviews can make a good business look sketchy. People trust what others say, and negative feedback can quickly push new customers away.

It’s not just about your reputation either — bad reviews can also mess with your visibility on Google. If your rating drops, fewer people will find you, and that means less traffic, fewer calls, and lost revenue.

How We Can Help

Your Reputation, Our Priority

A lower star rating immediately creates doubt in the buyer’s mind. Most people check reviews before making a decision, and if they see a business rated below 4 stars, they often assume something is wrong. Even without reading the full reviews, the number alone can turn them away. It sends a message that others had bad experiences — and buyers don’t want to take that risk.

At FirstRank, your online reputation is our top priority. We focus on identifying and removing fake or unfair reviews that damage your brand. Our goal is to take action fast — in most cases, we aim to have these harmful reviews removed within 48 hours.

It can damage your reputation, affect job opportunities, scare off potential customers, or even strain personal relationships. Whether it’s a harmful article, a blog post, or a forum mention, once it’s on the internet, it tends to stick — and people often believe what they read, even if it’s misleading or out of context.

At FirstRank, we specialize in removing or suppressing damaging content from search results. Our team uses proven strategies like legal takedown requests, content de-indexing, and SEO techniques to push down unwanted links. We take a personal and results-driven approach to every case, working quickly and discreetly to clean up your online image. Your reputation matters — and we’re here to help you take control of it.

How to flag a Google Review

Online reviews can be helpful for businesses, but sometimes you may come across a review that’s fake, misleading, or violates Google’s rules. In such cases, you might want to get that review removed. This guide will show you how to deal with unwanted Google reviews and what steps you can take.

Can You Remove a Google Review?

Here’s the truth: you can’t delete a review someone else posted about your business unless it breaks Google’s review policies. Google only removes reviews that contain:

  • Hate speech or discrimination
  • Offensive or inappropriate content
  • Fake or spam reviews
  • Conflicts of interest (e.g., written by a competitor or employee)
  • Off-topic or irrelevant content

If a review doesn’t fall into any of these categories, Google will likely not remove it — even if it’s unfair or negative.

Step-by-Step: How to Report a Google Review

believe a review violates Google’s rules, here’s how to flag it:

For Desktop:

  1. Go to Google Maps.
  2. Search for your business.
  3. Find the review you want to remove.
  4. Click the three vertical dots (⋮) next to the review.
  5. Select “Report review” and choose the reason that fits best.

For Mobile (Google Maps app):

  1. Open the app and find your business profile.
  2. Scroll to the review section.
  3. Tap the three-dot icon next to the review.
  4. Tap “Report review” and choose the reason.

After reporting, Google will review the case. If the review clearly violates the rules, it will be taken down. This process usually takes a few days.

What If Google Doesn’t Remove the Review?

If Google rejects your request and the review stays up:

Respond professionally. Reply to the review to show your side of the story. This builds trust with other customers.

Encourage more positive reviews. Ask happy customers to leave honest reviews. More good feedback can balance out the bad.

Monitor regularly. Keep an eye on your reviews so you can act quickly when something questionable shows up.

Final Thoughts
You can’t control what people say, but you can manage how you handle it. If a review breaks Google’s policies, report it. If it doesn’t, respond calmly and focus on building a strong, trustworthy presence.

If you’re dealing with fake or harmful reviews and need help, our team offers professional support in handling reputation issues. Reach out anytime.

If you’re trying to delete or remove your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business), the process isn’t always as simple as clicking “delete.” Google often keeps listings live even if you no longer manage them – frustrating, we know.

At FirstRank, we specialize in getting these listings removed, especially when they’re outdated, unwanted, or damaging your reputation. Here’s how it works, and how we can help.

✅ Step-by-Step Guide to Remove Your Google Business Profile

1. Log In to Your Google Account
Use the same Google account that was used to manage the profile. If you’re unsure which account was used, we can help identify it.

2. Go to Google Business Profile Manager

Visit: https://business.google.com

From there:

  • Find the business listing you want to remove.
  • Click the three-dot menu (⋮) next to the profile.

Select “Business Profile settings“, then choose “Remove Business Profile“.

3. Remove Content & Access
You’ll see the option to “Remove profile content and managers”. Confirm the action and finish the steps. This removes your ability to manage the profile — but the listing can still stay online.

This is where FirstRank comes in — we go a step further.

Why Your Listing Might Still Show Up

Even after you remove the profile from your account, it might still appear in Google Search and Maps. Why? Because Google keeps some listings up if they think the business still exists or it’s helpful to users.
We specialize in cases like these, where you’ve done your part, but the listing is still live.

🔧 FirstRank Can Help With:

  • Removing outdated or closed business listings
  • Deleting listings with negative or fake reviews
  • Handling duplicate listings or businesses that no longer exist
  • Helping you avoid public-facing “Permanently Closed” labels that can hurt your image

💡 Optional Step: Mark It as Permanently Closed
If the business is truly shut down:

  • Go to the profile settings
  • Under “Hours”, choose “Permanently Closed

This helps users know the business is no longer operating, but again — it may still be visible publicly. We help push for complete removal where possible.

🧼 Want the Listing Gone for Good?
Here’s what we do differently at FirstRank:

  • Direct removal requests through the right Google channels
  • Proper documentation and evidence submission
  • Appeal and follow-up if initial requests are denied
  • Ongoing support until the issue is resolved

Trying to remove your Google Business Profile yourself can be frustrating and time-consuming. Let FirstRank take it from here. We know what works — and more importantly, what doesn’t.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do we need to pay any deposit or upfront fee for Google review removal or profile deletion?

We don’t ask for any upfront payment or deposit when it comes to removing Google reviews or deleting profiles. Our service is strictly based on results—meaning you only pay once the job is done and the reviews are taken down or the profile is removed. This approach keeps everything clear and risk-free for you. You’re not paying for promises—you’re paying for real, completed work. It’s our way of showing that we stand behind what we do and value trust over talk.

Can You Turn Off Google Reviews on Google Business Profile?

Short answer: No, you can’t turn off or disable reviews on your Google Business Profile.

Google wants to keep the review system open so customers can share honest feedback. This helps others make informed decisions and builds trust across the platform.

Are There Any Exceptions?

In very rare situations — like when a business gets hit with fake reviews or a coordinated attack — Google might pause new reviews temporarily. But this usually happens only after you report the problem and provide clear evidence.

What You Can Do Instead

If you’re dealing with bad or fake reviews, here are a few smart steps to take:
1. Report Inappropriate Reviews
If a review includes spam, threats, hate speech, or anything against Google’s policies, you can report it for removal. Use Google’s Review Flagging Tool to submit your request.

2. Reply to Negative Reviews
Stay calm and respond professionally. Address their concern and try to resolve the issue. A thoughtful reply can actually turn a negative experience into a positive one — and it shows future customers that you care.

3. Encourage Happy Customers to Leave Reviews
Ask satisfied customers to leave a review. The more positive feedback you have, the better your overall rating will look — and the less impact one or two bad reviews will have.

Things to Keep in Mind
Deleting Your Google Business Listing Won’t Remove Reviews
If you remove your profile, reviews still stay visible on Google Maps and Search.

You Can’t Hide Reviews
Google does not allow businesses to hide reviews, even if they’re negative.

How to claim your business profile in Google

Claim or Request Access to Your Google Business Profile

Step 1: Search for Your Business on Google

  • Go to Google Search or Google Maps.
  • Type your business name and location.
  • If your business shows up, click on it to view the profile.

Step 2: Check If It’s Already Claimed

  • Look for an option like “Own this business?” or “Claim this business”.
  • If you see it, the profile is not verified yet — and you can claim it directly.

Step 3: Click “Claim This Business”

  • Google will guide you to start the verification process.
  • Choose the method (phone, email, or postcard) to receive a code.

Step 4: No Option to Claim? Request Access Instead

  • If the profile is already claimed, click “Request Access”.
  • Fill out the form with your business details and your relationship to the business.

Step 5: Wait for Response

  1. The current profile owner has 3–7 days to respond.
  2. If they approve, you’ll get access.
  3. If they deny or don’t respond, Google may give you a chance to verify ownership.

Step 6: Follow Up & Verify Ownership

  • If no one responds, Google might ask you to submit documents or complete another verification method.
  • FirstRank can help handle this process to make sure everything is done right.

Step 7: Get Full Control of Your Profile

Once you’re verified, you can update

How to fix suspended or disabled profiles

Google Business Profile Suspended? Here’s How to Fix It

If your Google Business Profile got suspended or disabled, you’re not alone—and it can be frustrating. But don’t panic. Google has a clear process for fixing the issue and getting your profile reinstated. We’ll walk you through everything step by step.

Why Was My Google Business Profile Suspended?

Google suspends profiles that don’t follow their guidelines. This could happen for a few reasons:

  • Your business information is misleading or inconsistent
  • You’re using a virtual office or address that isn’t staffed during business hours
  • You posted fake or inappropriate content
  • There are multiple listings for the same business
  • You didn’t verify your business properly

Before doing anything else, double-check that your listing follows Google’s Business Profile policies.

Step-by-Step Guide to Get Your Profile Reinstated

1. Review the Guidelines
First, go through Google’s Business Profile guidelines carefully. Fix any issues in your profile, such as:

  • Inaccurate business names
  • Wrong address formats
  • Missing categories
  • Website links that don’t match the business
  • Your profile must reflect a real, trustworthy business.

2. Gather Proof of Business
Google needs to know your business is legitimate. Collect clear documents that show your business operates at the claimed location. These can include:

  • Utility bills (electric, internet, phone)
  • Business license or registration
  • Tax documents
  • Lease agreements or storefront photos

Make sure the business name and address on all documents exactly match your Google listing.

3. Submit an Appeal
Once your information is in order, use the Google Business Profile Reinstatement Form to appeal the suspension. Be honest, provide all required documents, and explain any changes you made.

⚠️ Important: When submitting supporting documents, you have just 60 minutes to complete the process. Don’t delay.

4. Track Your Appeal Status
After submitting the appeal, Google will review your case. You can check your appeal status through their official appeals tool. Statuses may include:

  • Submitted – Google has received your appeal
  • Approved – Your listing is back online
  • Not Approved – Your appeal was denied
  • Can’t Be Appealed – You may need to start fresh
  • Eligible for Appeal – You can resubmit with new info

Pro Tips to Avoid Suspension in the Future

  • Always keep your business info up to date
  • Don’t use P.O. boxes or coworking spaces as addresses
  • Never post fake reviews or spammy content
  • Verify ownership through an official Google method
  • Use real photos of your business location

Need Help?
Appealing a suspension can be confusing—especially if you’re managing multiple locations or don’t know what triggered it. If you need expert help, we can assist you with preparing the appeal, gathering the right documents, and improving your chances of reinstatement.
