When your name appears on Nine.com.au, in an A Current Affair segment, or on any of Nine’s digital platforms (SMH, The Age, Brisbane Times, WA Today, 9Honey), it can immediately become your top Google result — and stay there indefinitely. These stories are built for reach, SEO, and syndication. The impact is fast and brutal.
At Reputation Ace, we deal with this exact scenario regularly. Whether it’s a segment that aired on TV and is now online, or a negative write-up hosted on Nine’s websites, we can remove, suppress, or de-index the content and replace it with stronger, brand-controlled content that restores your digital name.
Why Nine Articles and Videos Are So Damaging
Nine Publishing and Channel 9 content ranks highly because:
- Their sites have massive domain authority
- The articles include your full name in the headline, URL, and metadata
- They often embed videos, which also appear in Google and YouTube results
- Stories get syndicated across platforms, including Yahoo, MSN, and social media
- They stay online for years, even after a case is resolved or withdrawn
If you’ve been featured in an episode of A Current Affair, even a 2-minute TV clip can result in a permanent Google footprint unless removed or buried.
The Reputation Ace Strategy for Nine Media
🔴 Step 1: Direct Removal Request to Nine
We submit a formal, legally grounded request to Nine’s editorial and legal teams, using:
- Privacy arguments
- Spent conviction protection
- Outdated content with excessive harm
- Mental health, safety, or employment impact
- No public interest / resolved matter
Depending on the case, we push for:
- Full takedown
- Content edits
- Name redaction
- Removal of embedded metadata (for SEO impact)
If they refuse, we escalate.
🟡 Step 2: Google De-indexing
Even if the article or video remains live, we apply to Google to remove the link from search results, especially from:
- Google Web
- Google News
- Google Video and YouTube
- Image search, if photos are involved
Google will act if the content is:
- Outdated or irrelevant
- Causing ongoing harm
- No longer newsworthy
- Tied to resolved legal matters or spent convictions
We handle all filings, responses, and appeals.
🟢 Step 3: Suppress and Replace
The fastest and most effective way to take back control is to bury the Nine article/video under stronger, optimised, and branded content.
Here’s what we build:
- Google-ranking bios, PR articles, and profiles
- Blog-style content on authority domains
- Social media signals, YouTube videos, and personal content
- Neutral microsites and local listings
- A custom internal linking structure that boosts authority
Google prioritises the most relevant and trustworthy content — and we stack the deck in your favour until the Nine result drops.
What to Expect and Cost
We act immediately and keep pushing until it’s clean.
Most cases show early changes within 5–7 days, with major suppression or de-indexing results within 3–4 months.
Cost: $995 AUD/month, month-to-month. No setup fee. No lock-in. Just results.
Let’s Get It Off Google
To begin, send us:
- Your full name
- A link to the Nine article or ACA video
- Any legal or privacy details you want us to include in the takedown
We’ll review and get back to you with a tailored plan.
