    Pound Psychopathic Enemy Online Libel Off The Internet

    By Annette Davidson

    One of the best things about interpersonal communications is that a relationship is always a work-in-progress. Criticisms and compliments can be discussed and learned from and then everyone moves on. Not so with the Internet. Because everything sticks around forever. And if someone has written something negative about you or your business, that can do damage out here in the real world, and it's hard to have a conversation with the Internet in order to set things straight.

    If I've put the fear in you, please give me a chance to sooth your jangled nerves. Because of course, it's not hopeless. This is the Internet! Anything's possible. (Sometimes it's weird stuff, sure, but often it's useful.) In this case, the useful is characterized by reputation repair services, companies which take a good stiff brush to your online self and make it sparkle.

    Reputation Repair Services

    It turns out that the Internet does play by certain rules -- it's not just a fan of bad news. Search engines like Google's rank sites by how many links lead to them, so reputation repair services just generate content that out-links the bad stuff, which starts it slipping down the search rankings. In no time, that negative comment is sitting a hundred pages down in the search, not even a whisper anymore. Well, it's a little more complicated than that, but you get it.

    All the content that has forced that negative stuff down is, of course, going to paint a better impression of you and your business. It's going to give people who search for you a more positive outlook on what you do. Don't disappoint them now! You should be pretty rested anyway, since you accomplished all this without having to take your grudge-holder to court... or to the alley behind the bar.

    Controlling Your Online Reputation

    And for those who are just starting businesses, it's never too late to take control of that reputation. This kind of service can put your name on the very top of the rankings at a time when you need eyes on your business. And you know it'll be a positive first impression for sure.

    It's sure a weird place, this Internet, isn't it? You've got a whole real-world life you've got to think about, a house and some plants and maybe a cat, and then on top of that here's this online version of you that you have to consider. And, stranger still, the online version will probably encounter more people than the real version of you. Hey, it's a new world. I hope you see how important it is to make sure your online self puts its best face forward. It's got you to think about, after all.
