Online Reputation Management
Do you know what people are saying about you or your business on the World Wide Web? Maintaining your online reputation is a huge part of a successful social media optimization campaign, because one negative comment that shows up high in the search engine could cost you substantial income.
What Is Online Reputation Management?
Internet reputation management, corporate reputation management, crisis communications, SEO Image, and public relations goes hand in hand with online branding. As you use social networking and media sites to quickly get the word out about your business, people are going to start talking about your company online. Customers who had a good experience may send out a tweet on Twitter or post a link to your Facebook fan page, but the same could be said for people who were impacted negatively.
While you are going to do all you can to make your customers happy, it takes just one negative comment from a disgruntled client to put doubt in a new customer’s mind about your Texas company. Search Engine reputation management or SEO reputation management refers taking steps to push those negative comments past the first page of the search engine, so fewer people find them.
Online Reputation Monitoring Tools
You could literally spend hours combing the search engines for your company, product, or personal name and terms like “scam” or “bad,” but that is not very efficient. Instead, we use monitoring tools to help protect your online image.
Dealing with Negative Feedback
When a customer Googles your Texas business or your Austin niche keyword, what does he find? If negative comments in a forum or on a blog are found on page one of the search engine results, your company’s online reputation will be harmed, even when those comments are unfounded.
If you find negative comments, be honest and transparent, but respond. If the comment lacks merit, provide the truth and move on. Then, do what you can through your marketing efforts to get your pages listed higher in Google than the negative comment. This is online reputation management – ensuring that the first page of Google results for your business displays only positive reflections on your business which help to remove negative information from Google on the first pages.
The best way to deal with those comments and any form of negative publicity is to simply push those results down in the search engines so they show up past page one or two. Statistics show that most Internet users do not surf past page one, and if they do, they distrust the results slightly. To the average Internet user, the first page carries the most important information, so you need to ensure that what they see one page one is positive.
So how do you do this? That is where Page Club comes into the picture. Our ORM services will help you to bury the negative publicity in the results pages.
