Protective Online Reputation Management

Defending a brand online is as important task as building online reputation for the newly created one. Prophylactic online reputation management is preventative and useful way of securing online positions and information that is showing in the search results when someone is doing a search for your brand’s name. By reviewing the trends an identifying proper search queries (key words), creating positive online reputation, managing social profiles, doing regular article writing and blog commenting online reputation issues can be effectively reduced or avoided completely.

Prophylactic online reputation management should definitely be a part of every company’s online security plans. The reason is that years of careful reviews and proper products/services positioning along with hundreds thousands of dollars that you’ve spent on marketing and advertisement of your brand can all be laid waste if the competitor will simply start posting negative fake reviews about your brand online and if those reviews will hit the first positions of search results when people will be searching online for the name of your brand. In this case this will be a serious issue that might destroy your business empire.

As the most practice shows the majority of search engines users usually use the default search settings and one of the setups is displaying 10 search results per page. In case the search has been done for your brand name, the name of the product or service that your brand provides, or the name of the executive in your company, there will be 10 lines of related search results and this is what you have to convince them that you are worth of trust and doing business with. It is not even a question that in the ideal world you definitely would want to control all ten of those search results. As the latest research results shows 86% of all the people who are using search engines for finding the necessary information are looking at the first page of search results only, controlling the first ten search results allows the company not only to present its products/services in the most professional way but also secure positions for the possible fraud attacks from the competitors that will be trying to destroy your brand’s online reputation.

So the conclusion is very simple: the earlier you will start thinking about your online reputation protection upfront and start taking actions to move forward in this direction the easier it would be to achieve and secure positive search results. By using existing social profiles resources and bookmarking website along with corporate website, blog/forum and other sources of interaction with Internet users and spreading the word online the dominant positions in the search results can be had.
