Removing eight Reddit threads for a health brand

Health Brand Direct-to-consumer health and wellness · Confidential client

A direct-to-consumer health brand had eight separate Reddit threads criticizing its products and policies, all ranking on page one of Google for branded searches. This is how we removed them, quietly and permanently.

The problem

Eight critical threads

Eight separate Reddit threads across two health subreddits, attacking product quality, subscription policies and support.

Ranking on page one

Heavily indexed and tied to branded search terms, the threads surfaced prominently on Google’s first page.

Long, keyword-rich

Long, engaging conversations that kept gaining traction and reinforced their own visibility over time.

Eroding trust

Brand trust slipped and customer acquisition slowed at exactly the moment buyers were doing their research.

What we did

Rather than chase public takedowns that invite more attention, we worked inside Reddit’s own infrastructure to remove all eight threads and clear them from search.
