We

search engines.
While the Internet is wonderfully
empowering to the individual, it does come with its downsides.
In some cases, that very downside may well be the empowerment
of an individual. The advent of blogging, Internet forums
and social media sites have made it possible for the first
time in history for any individual to address a global audience.
Other sites such as Ripoff Report can allow
fraudulent and falsified negative postings by anonymous users
with absolutely zero accountability. This can be damaging
if such an individual has it out for you, especially when
this type of web content appears near the top of the search
engines for searches for the name of your company, organization,
or principles. Online reputation management
involves taking control, to the extent possible, information
appearing at the top of the search engines about your business,
and minimizing or eliminating the effect of online slander
and libel.
The
lack of journalistic oversight in blogs and social media,
absence of editorial, moral and ethical accountability of
some individuals, relative anonymity the Internet affords
a malicious attacker, and the ease with which an attack against
you can be disseminated both widely and quickly make it important
to remove Ripoff Report and other negative items. Online reputation
management a legitimate concern of any online business who
may be dealing with issues of online slander and libel.
Whether it be a disgruntled
employee, a customer who feels as if his or her problem was
not resolved, or even a competitor, malicious bad press can
bring your business to its knees quickly. The damage can be
incalculable, devastating, and quick. And the truth does not
matter. Lies, exaggerations, half-truths and malicious spin
all are given a sense of legitimacy when they appear in search
engine result pages. Thus the inherent value of the ability
to control the relative visibility of positive and negative
press appearing in the search engines about your business
becomes apparent.

of references to your business in the search engines, we can
