Updated September 15, 2017 Contact the webmasters for any site in which your name appears. Kindly request that they remove your name. There are three sites available online to help you identify who the right contact person might be to request your name be removed: 1) Networksolutions.com, 2) Whois.domaintools.com, and 3) Internic.net. Subscribe to a service to bury your name so that it appears after the 50th entry in a search. Studies show that most Internet searchers give up after the 20th entry or so, so your name should be safe from prying eyes if you are buried anywhere beyond that. Removeyourname.com and Reputationdefender.com are just a few. Get a Google account of any kind, whether Gmail or Google Checkout, and access thee removal tool to help you remove URLs fro Google’s search engine. Yahoo! has a similar tool to remove URLs from its search engine, although its steps for content removal slightly differ from those on Google. You can access both tools using the Resources links provided below. Delete any profiles or classifieds that may contain your name. If you have a profile on Facebook or MySpace, you can cancel your account to delete your information. Use pseudonyms going forward whenever you post information online. This will effectively eliminate any chance of your real identity popping up on Internet search engines in the future. Writer Bio
