Updating Information on the Web

by

You have a new phone and a new address but the old information is scattered throughout the Internet. How do you get that information updated?

Do a search for your old information on the top search engines. Contact the top search results webpages and let them know the webpage that needs to be updated on their website and include new information. This might work well. It just depends if the website is still being updated or how the information is given to the website like a directory listing.

Also include a webpage on your website that doesn’t have to be linked from your main website but should include your old address along with your new address. For your business name and location your website should have a good search engine ranking. This way by still having the old address you can get listed in the search results for it while also pointing surfers to the new information.

It will probably be nearly impossible to have all old references removed but making sure to include both old and new on your website will help keep your search rankings for the old information.
