Can Autocomplete Be Altered?
We invested hundreds of working hours to determine what causes these autosuggest problems, and how to fix them quickly and effectively. After copious amounts of experimentation, we finally launched our “Autosuggest RX” solution. It has already proven to be a very effective tool. Google’s autocomplete lists searched for terms in order of popularity. This often causes a cascade effect: everyone begins clicking on highest listed terms or phrases. As more searchers are distracted from their original searches to click these seemingly-random suggestions, the viral effect takes over. The phrases that get clicked the most then move to the head of the list.
Should I Focus on Correcting Google Autocomplete Issues?
Autocomplete is a great tool, but can also cause issues when negative and/or false statement are listed alongside positive, true statements or reviews. For example: Potential customers or associates begin Googling your name, or your company’s name. Even before they can finish typing the query, they see first: “[Your Business] is a scam.” Curiosity gets the best of us, and so they click on the negative link. Now they have a negative view of you or your company, AND their click helps make the search prediction more popular!Everyday searchers believe that these negative recommendations are what people are actually searching for, and they automatically assume what they read to indeed be fact. In actuality, this suggestion is most likely at the top due to other searchers who couldn’t resist a click, even though they were inputting something else entirely!

All it takes is one upset person to input something bad or inflammatory about you or your company, and then social media runs wild with it. This causes a landslide of searches related to the title or topic of the negative blog post, and before you know it, it’s residing on the Autocomplete list.
More often than not, Autocomplete phrases are caused by a single negative item that generates online attention. Eventually, desperate webmasters will use it to generate traffic. Everyone begins searching for the item and its variations, it joins the Autocomplete list, and the negativity begins!
