Troubleshooting

How do I fix inconsistent information about my brand across the web?

Short answer
Decide the canonical version of every core fact, publish it plainly on your own site in both text and structured data, then propagate it to every profile you control and request correction everywhere you do not. Inconsistency is penalised because a model that finds three answers will confidently state none of them.

Fix these facts first

Legal and trading name, founding year, headquarters, category description, pricing, and the one-line summary of what you do. These appear in almost every generated answer about a company.

Write them once, in one place, and treat that as the source everything else copies from. A short internal fact sheet prevents the drift from returning.

Then sweep the long tail

Search your brand name and work through the first few pages: directories, review platforms, social profiles, partner pages, conference listings, old press releases. Each one that disagrees is a vote against you.

Prioritise by whether an engine actually cites the source. A stale listing on a site no engine retrieves can wait; a stale review profile cannot.
