Introduction to Online Reputation Management<\/h2>\n

You may have heard of reputation management before, but what about online<\/strong> reputation management?<\/p>\n

For those of you that might not know, online reputation management<\/strong> is basically the practice of monitoring what people are saying about your brand on the internet and reacting in a way to get rid of, or make less visible, the negative sentiment of your brand.<\/p>\n

Negative Sentiment<\/h2>\n

Negative reviews, tweets, Facebook posts, etc. can be a blessing and a curse. The curse is obvious, but the blessing comes from having people talk about your brand and thus, increasing its visibility.<\/p>\n

Harnessing that extra visibility and turning it into something positive is the end goal of reputation management.<\/p>\n

Finding Negative Reviews in Search Engines<\/h2>\n

There aren’t many businesses more polarizing than auto dealers; so let’s look at a bit of what a simple Google search for “auto dealers” in my hometown of Nashville, TN looks like:<\/p>\n

\"nashville
Ouch, that last one would definitely make me think twice about going there for my next car.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Two searches to find the most visible negative sentiment are “i hate [brand\/product]” & “[brand\/product] sucks”. Let’s look at what people who hate AT&T have to say:<\/p>\n

\"i
Notice that Google is even displaying the complaints on AT&T\u2019s own website<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

People are so passionate that they’ve made Facebook pages, videos, and even websites devoted to venting their frustration.<\/p>\n

This Sounds Like a Lot of Work, Can I Live Without Reputation Management?<\/h2>\n

Yes, but I wouldn’t recommend it.<\/p>\n

According to a recent Nielsen study:<\/p>\n

\n

“76 percent of US internet consumers said they most trusted recommendations from personal acquaintances, while 49 percent trusted consumer opinions posted online.”
– Nielsen: State of the Media | Advertising Spend and Effectiveness (06\/2011)<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Nearly half of your potential customers trust the opinions of total strangers; they may not even give you a chance if the first thing they see is a bad review. Monitoring and reacting appropriately to your reputation online is essential to the success of your business.<\/p>\n

Next week…<\/h2>\n

We’ll look at some examples of reputation management<\/a> gone awry.<\/p>\n
