  1. I used Search Manipulator to bump down a bad article I had when I googled my name. It was bumped to page 5 but I wanted it lower, so I contacted Google. I paid wayy too much money for what I got. Search Manipulator's $20 program was so much more useful than Google's tools. I highly recommend them.
