by Brandon CalleyOnline Reputation Management Tips for Business Owners

Online Reputation Management Your Internet reputation matters, especially if you are a business owner. What people say on the Internet about your service or product can directly influence your companys success. Here are some tips for ensuring that your online reputation is what you want it to be:

Online Reputation Management 1. Research: You need to know what people are saying about your business. Do a web search and read. You can also set up an alert system via email that will inform you when there are new mentions of your company online.

2. Participate: Be as active online as you are offline. Participate in forums or other spaces that are related to your business. This will get more positive press and mentions about your company out on the Internet. Sites like Facebook and Twitter are crucial for business owners these days. If you are not already on these sites, sign up for accounts and learn how to interact with your market.

3. Promote positive press: The Internet is a tool many consumers use to look for reviews of companies before they use them. Promote the positive reviews your company gets so that potential customers can read them. You should also encourage your loyal and satisfied customers to review your company. Tell them about your Facebook, Twitter, or other social media accounts so they can connect to you and share with their networks.
