This is the situation in a short story:
The owner had a website and the webmaster of this former website got upset because the owner fired him because she did not want to pay what he wanted her to pay for something that should have been included in the original price and because the domain name was owned by this webmaster company and this webmaster has paid for the domain name and has updated it ever since he got fired in '09-the owner had a new website done in '10 with a domain name THAT SHE OWNED so she had control of everything. Apparenlty the old website comes up first and it will always come up first because the old webmaster refuses to close it down and keeps renewing the domain name and updating the website-why would anyone want to do that and more importantly-WHAT CAN WE LEGALLY DO ABOUT IT TO STOP IT! At the conerence we went to this old website will always be 1st on google, and we can't really do a count on how many people go to our website if this old one is first with no re-direct. There has to be something we can do to stop this webmaster from doing this.
We learned long ago-ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS-pay for your own domain name IN YOUR NAME not the web companies name-cause then they have complete control of your website.
Thanks in advance at this time we are going to e-mail the former webmaster and send a certified letter to cease and dissist-its truly false advertising and ruining our reputation and lastly may be loosing business.
