aReputation Providing a Positive Online Landscape

The financial crisis that was set in motion in 2008 has altered the dynamics and the way the corporate world functions. A critical change is happening in the way the businesses are spending money on shielding reputation. The business fraternity is moving away from dicey and non-measurable marketing and public-relation strategies in favour of corporate reputation management. After all, it’s been proven that a sound reputation has the potential to stimulate stock prices.

Large corporations are inclined more towards brand reputation management rather than launching new products and companies have started using their online reputations as assets to expand the flow of investments, gain customers and fuel market share.

There is a growing awareness in industry and management circles that in the warp-speed world of today, one wrong move can have you nailed, especially through social networking mediums such as Twitter and Facebook. Proactive brand reputation management as opposed to enlisting public relation firms to deal with criticism and crises is the mantra for retaining a sound reputation and in turn possessing the potential to stimulate stock prices.

Given the existing market climate, a company’s success or failure is largely dependent on how it is recognized. Large enterprises are accountable to shareholders and investors. There is pressure to log in profit and more often than not, there is a wrong move. Slip-ups like reckless expansion and wobbly strategies can damage reputations and that is likely to lead to a deficit in public trust.

Online reputation repair and risk management firm aReputation’s (www.areputation.co.uk) spokesperson David Miller pointed out, “India’s top 1000 corporate houses require end-to-end online reputation management, both as a reinstation to print and television users who also use internet, as well as a mechanism to reach out to the 100 million-plus internet users who spend majority of their waking time on the internet, laptops and smartphones.

“The public is now connected to the outside world in more ways than just TV. News spreads quickly online. Our analysis shows that a streamlined approach to managing a firm’s online reputation has a meaningful impact on customers and boosts employees’ morale. We don’t use smokescreens, rather, we strive to fix the issue.”

No image problem is necessarily permanent. With the help of a professional company, almost any person or enterprise can redeem himself or itself. Identifying the right reputation manager is not easy. The competition with regard to online reputation is stiff and only those who understand the larger picture tend to leave the rest behind.

Miller said, “We manage 120 of India's 1000 largest businesses' brand on various social media platforms -- Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, etc. aReputation manages and helps launch a business' social media presence by developing brand strategy, creating relevant profiles and posting to and monitoring those profiles. Our USP remains online reputation repair and crisis management.”

Interestingly, aReputation not only has a handle on current social media platforms, but also monitors industry trends to determine what the new social media tools are, constantly updating tools and avenues. Managing negative content and helping to keep personal information private is also a service that is used on a large-scale by high-networth companies.

With the help of specialists, online reputation management can be used to re-establish good faith, promote services and increase revenue.

Remove Name From Google

What does Google say about you? And do you wince when you are staring at nasty and spiteful junk shadowing your good name? You might as well. Because you are not the only one. There are sure to be others who are forming foul opinions about you. You will find yourself or your company in defensive mode. When this happens, a clear response plan can help everyone stay focused on effective damage control. The World sees what the search engines say about YOU. With our monitoring and elimination services YOU control the search engines. We will customize a solution to fit your needs. Reputation crises only get worse when ignored. You need to get to the root of the cause and it would be wise to enlist help.It is mostly a helpless situation where you are left high and dry. You have done nothing outrageous but someone else can inadvertently defame you. Just look at the trouble U.S. presidential hopeful, Rick Santorum, is having with his surname being used to refer to something other than himself. Although there are ways to deal with such situations, there are no foolproof ways to root the evil out.

Criminals can use your personal information to threaten you and hurt your family. If you are serious about protecting your identity, your family, or your business, you should take immediate action to block your personal information from public scrutiny. The good news is that there are websites, services and tools available to accomplish this but if truth be told, there is no sure-shot way to completely erase the published material since it is already indexed by the search engines because not only do they keep cached copies of the pages, there are also services out there that go through all of the web pages on the Internet and create copies of them at specific times.

The best approach in such circumstances is to make sure that there is lots of constructive information about you on the web to offset what negative things might be getting said. So build up a web presence – website / blog, Twitter page, Facebook page. Our professional set-up with profound knowledge in the subject gives us the cutting edge and we have made substantial difference to damaged reputation over the years. Our experienced team will take immediate steps to remove rip-off reports from the first pages of Google and suppress damaging online content to the back-most pages where there are hardly any visitors. We make sure positive material, describing in detail your good name graces the first pages beyond which people normally don’t tread.There are a couple of online personal profile services that are indexed by the search engines and will show up pretty high for most names. For example, if you search my name, say ‘Aseem Kishore’, you’ll see I show up for Newsvine.com, Blogger profile, SEOmoz profile, Amazon.com profile, etc. Our advice is this - Wherever you can create a profile, create one!
