"JJ, one of my co workers at the florist, is from the war-torn Somali capital of Mogadishu. It turns out he attended HAU several years ago. I asked why if he had a college degree was he working as a clerk here in the US. Well, he was so grateful he was able to not only get to the US, but also get work in the US. He's a very valuable employee. He built our website and coded the office management software - all skills he taught himself. It's a difficult transition moving from Mogadishu to the US. Everything is so different. Yet this worker is thriving here and has become indispensable. The owner was arrested for a DUI last year and the news reporting on it hit the local papers and Google. A search for the florist showed the DUI on page one of Google. Embarrassed and concerned for his business the owner started contacting online reputation management services. They all claimed they would be successful at removing negative search results if he hired them. They were all too expensive. To keep a bad result off of Google's page one could cost over $1,500 a month after a $3,000 account set up fee. JJ did a search and came up with one specialist who exclusively handled search removals, but even though they were less than the reputation services, they were still too expensive. But JJ read about how the removals were achieved, basically pointing links to other sites, search optimizing them, causing them to outrank the problem, pushing it off Google's page 1. Then he set out to replicate that strategy. It took him 6 months, but he actually succeeded. That DUI report is now on page 3. IMO, he will be managing this business before long."
