Removing negative content from the internet can be super quick, or it can be a longer and drawn out process – it just depends on a few factors. We have seen content removal be as fast as 1-2 days, but in more challenging cases, the removal can take up to 50-60 days. The amount of time it takes greatly depends on the nature of the content and whoever/whatever is publishing the content.
It’s important to remember that content removal can sometimes be more a marathon than it is a sprint. For certain publishing platforms (like Google and TripAdvisor) there is a lot of red tape involved, which requires them to ask their supervisors for help. This constant going back and forth can be quite tedious and time-consuming, which is why it’s crucial to go with a professional who knows the right points to hit so the timeline can be expedited.
