In the Age of the Internet, anyone with a computer can quickly sabotage your hard-earned reputation. Suddenly, your name is popping up on search engines with words like “scam” or “fraud” or “rip-off” behind it. If you’re looking for a job, your potential employers may run Google searches to see if you have a clean record. They may search for photos of you on Facebook, to see if you’re a wild sort. If you have just one article in cyberspace from just one angry person, and that article has many readers, it may be the very first thing a recruiter sees about you, and first impressions are extremely hard to change. If you have one wild photo of you that’s gone viral on the Internet, it may be the one image that shows up first in a search.

That’s where InternetReputation.com comes in. The company can quickly assess your Internet reputation, and determine what sorts of searches are being performed on your name and what sorts of articles are most-often read. The team then builds you a so-called Virtual Firewall, in which a plethora of positive articles are unleashed on the web. When users run searches on your name after this campaign, the positive results often float to the top of the pile and the nasty appendages are left off of the end of the search box.

Making a change like this on your own is often difficult, or impossible, to do. It’s hard to defend yourself against a reputation attack without sounding petulant or petty. It can be difficult to encourage the disgruntled to stop assaulting you. By using experts at InternetReputation.com, you’re leaving the work in the hands of a third party, which can talk up your positive points without sounding angry about the original assault on your reputation.

InternetReputation.com also has many more tools in their toolkit than you’re likely to have at home. InternetReputation.com uses search engine monitoring, social media, content dissemination and search engine optimization to clean up your reputation and get you back on the right road. This can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive project, and it’s best left to experts.

InternetReputation.com specializes in campaigns for individuals such as athletes, celebrities, attorneys and executives. The client list is kept 100 percent confidential, and no private information provided to the company is ever shared.
