Reputation Rhino Has 4 Steps For You To Follow In Case of a Reputation Crisis...
You are not your worst mistake. You are in the middle of the storm and there is thunder and lightning all around. You can’t see very far ahead and it’s raining. A perfect storm. Remember, this doesn't define you and you can weather the storm with the right mindset and help.
Next, know when to listen. This is the hardest part. People can be incredibly cruel, hateful and hurtful online. It's important you distinguish the helpful parts of what you hear vs the parts you absolutely need to ignore. After all, not all hateful content is necessarily true.
Our biggest mistakes can be our best lessons. From this traumatic experience of being on the receiving end of cancel culture, we can learn to be a better person, more understanding, more forgiving, and emerge a better, more professional employee or executive.
After an appropriate time of introspection and self-improvement you can start to change the narrative. Charity, philanthropy, religion, writing a blog, starting a new business venture can all be proactive ways to turn things around.
We regularly work with clients who are seeking to reduce the visibility of personal information online. We have been VERY successful in removing negative content and private and personal information from Google (including Google Images), Bing, Yahoo, and more.

Yes! The distribution of pornography or similar images or videos to harass, humiliate, or intimidate that individual is one of the most destructive online crimes anyone can commit today. Thankfully, state legislatures are taking aggressive action to criminalize this activity.

Keep your identity safe
Yes! It’s never been easier for someone to find out who you are – your best and worst moments are saved online. There is an abundance of information out there about everyone — and it is only growing. Practically any document a person submits to the government is a public record. This means that anyone can see a variety of files containing potentially sensitive information. Everything from political campaign contributions, real estate purchase and sale prices, divorce details, criminal history and sex offender status are visible online.
Over the past several years, it has become easier to access this information, as many federal and state agencies publish public records on the Internet through searchable databases. This information is often republished or made available by data aggregators. Users can easily go online, find, and download this information.
Social media has made opportunities for overexposure even greater. Its usage has exploded in recent years – a report by Pew Research Center indicates that:
Users have the ability to control much of the information presented on social media sites. However, privacy features are changing rapidly and people are struggling to keep up with and fully understand the impact of the various privacy settings now available. Social media users are sharing more and more information. For example, a study by Carnegie Mellon University found that on Facebook, the number of disclosures of personal details (e.g., hometown, high school, and interests) had risen significantly from prior years.
Even if people make their profiles private, others can gain access to their information through mutual friends. The bigger the network, the more opportunities there are for this exposure to occur. This has made it much easier for strangers to learn personal things about individuals, observe others’ views about sensitive topics, share these insights, and form an opinion.
Online reputations have never been more vulnerable. And this is a major cause for concern because, like it or not — the way people perceive you online matters.
With hundreds of online reputation management companies to choose from, how do you decide which company is best positioned to help resolve your problem online?
Selecting the best personal reputation management company is a time-consuming, but very important process. To get started, research a list of potential online reputation management companies by looking at company websites, online ratings, online reviews, resources, or other trusted referral sources.
The next step is to reduce the number of potential firms down to a manageable short list of preferred online reputation management companies. Then, contact and interview each of the preferred companies.
Some personal reputation management companies specialize in crisis communications, while others are more experienced in building a positive reputation from scratch, while other reputation management companies are skilled at reputation repair.
Just like you wouldn’t go to a dentist for a heart condition or a neurosurgeon for toothache, when choosing a reputation management firm, you should find a company that has the skill set to help you achieve your goal.
Experience is one of the most important criteria in selecting the best personal reputation management company. You want a firm with a track record of success with your particular type of problem. Such a record of experience will dramatically increase the likelihood that the reputation management firm can help to resolve your issue successfully.
The number of years in business, number of projects in a particular specialty area and prior results are important considerations when evaluating the reputation management company's "experience."
Online reputation management companies are supposed to be communications specialists, whether arguing for the removal of defamatory content, writing articles or publishing press releases, or analyzing content written by others.
Equally important, however, is finding a personal reputation management company who can effectively communicate with you. You want a firm that anticipates your questions, can articulate a thoughtful strategy and keeps you updated regularly about the progress of your project without you having to call first.
When researching the best personal reputation management companies, you should consider the reputation of the firm itself.
If they can’t protect and defend their own online image, how can you expect them to effectively represent you and help improve your online reputation?
Consider the current online search results for the company, ratings and reviews, media coverage, and other factors to evaluate the reputation of the firm.
You can choose the best personal reputation management company for your project, but the success of your campaign is dependent on the team managing your project. For large digital marketing agencies and SEO firms that claim to do reputation management, your project may be handled by a junior associate or inexperienced member of their team.
It is rate for personal reputation management projects to get high-level attention and focus by the executive team, so be sure to ask about who is going to be your project manager and who will be your primary point of contact for your online reputation management campaign.
At some point in the decision-making process when choosing a personal reputation management firm, the discussion will turn to cost. Ask for the company to explain the firm's billing procedures and methods.
Project fees, contingency arrangements (payment for success) and monthly fees are common in the industry, although some companies bill hourly.
Use these tips from expert reputation management experts for improving, protecting, and controlling how you are seen online.
Find out what is being said about you or your company online. It is important to understand where you are starting from so you can figure out where you need to go and how to get there. If you are an individual, search for your first name and last name and add a city or state or employer -- these are the most common online searches for individuals.
What are you trying to accomplish by improving your online reputation. Are you trying to impress a future romantic partner? Are you seeking a new job or a promotion? Are you working to suppress negative articles? Defining your goals will make it easier to plan your strategy.
Create an optimized personal or business profile on high quality social media and Web 2.0 sites, like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter. Post a well written, professional biography, upload high quality photos and link to other online profiles. By growing your social network your sites will rank higher.
A blog has evolved from a simple online diary to a way to quickly communicate to and with the online world -- without a filter. With tools like WordPress, Medium and Blogger, it is easier than ever, and no knowledge of code is required. You can add images and video and link to other content of interest. If you are trying to manage your online reputation, a blog is a great place to start.
Be the master of your domain. Purchase firstnamelastname.com, .net, and .org and other variants for your name. If your firstnamelastname.com is not available, consider variants like firstname-lastname.com.
In addition to publishing new content regularly on your website, participate actively on blogs, forums and bulletin boards. Comment on articles and share relevant information on Facebook, Twitter and other social sharing sites.
WordPress websites are spam magnets, so don’t blindly approve mindless comments and don’t click on unfamiliar links. Approve comments that add value and delete the rest.
In a world where cybersecurity breaches are a constant threat, you must be vigilant. Change to multi-factor authentication for logging in whenever possible, adjust your privacy settings, and choose hard to figure out passwords for your most important accounts.
It might be time to delete that MySpace account from high school. Keep track of all the digital assets you own and control and make sure your login and password information is up to date. If a site is no longer relevant, delete your account.
Online we are no longer strangers. We are all too familiar with the public and private lives of our friends, neighbors, colleagues and coworkers. The pot-smoking, keg standing fraternity stories (and photos) might be in our past, but their impact on our image is very much in the present. So be mindful of what you post, where you post and whether you can remove it if you wanted or needed to at some point in the future.
Monitor conversations mentioning your name, brand, or company. Discover where the conversations are taking place, what people are saying and who are the key influencers. Measure sentiment and follow trends.
Hire an experienced online reputation management company to promote positive information about you or your business to improve your online reputation and minimize or eliminate the impact of damaging online content.
It is becoming harder and harder to protect and maintain your privacy online. While you can control what you do and say online, you have little control about what other people do or say about us. Given the option of having little to no online identity and leaving it for others to fill in the blanks, we always recommend putting out at least a minimum of positive content online to fill out Page 1 of Google and other search engines. The absence of a strong online presence does not suggest a strong online reputation.
We all make mistakes. But one of the biggest mistakes people make online is pretending that the bad review or negative news article will go away one day, if we don’t do anything about it and pretend it doesn’t exist. Know when to respond immediately and when to remain silent. What you say can and will be used against you. Sometimes a simple apology can blunt the impact of a negative review or news story. No one expects perfection, but people do expect you to acknowledge your mistakes and try to do better.
Your online reputation is more than just organic search results. Google Photos, YouTube and other visual search engines also shape your online image. Choose the right image format, the correct size, add captions and alt-text attributes to help Google crawl the image. For videos, use the proper title and tags to stand out from the crowd. It should go without saying, but post photos and video content that present you in the best possible light.
Managing client expectations is the most challenging part of online reputation management. It is important to set realistic goals and understand what you can achieve and what you may need professional help to achieve. Simply creating profiles and posting content is a starting point, but advanced search engine optimization tactics are often needed to help content rise to the top of Page 1. If it was easy to rank content, everyone would be able to do it.

Personal reputation management involves promoting positive online content and minimizing the damage and impact of negative online content. In the absence of negative content online, personal reputation management will involve building a positive reputation by establishing a consistent, clear, and credible image online.
A bad reputation is a negative opinion that others may have about you. Sometimes these opinions or judgments are based on fact, other times a bad reputation is based on rumor or innuendo.
To improve your personal online reputation, you first need to find out what is being said about you online and what you may be saying about yourself with your social media postings, images, etc. You should look closely at images and organic search results for potential reputational issues or gaps. Set up Google Alerts for new mentions.
Second, you should create an optimized professional profile on high-quality social media and Web 2.0 sites, like Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and Medium. We often also recommend clients build a small website or blog for their first name + last name. If the foregoing is not effective, an online reputation management company should be able to effectively promote positive information about you and minimize or eliminate the impact of damaging online content.
Although most people seek the help of online reputation management professionals, it is possible to clean up your reputation. Online with a combination of branded domains, press releases, optimized social media profiles, sponsored stories in high authority media and more. In many cases it is possible to push the content of Page 1 completely in just a few months, in other more complicated projects mitigating the damage and providing some balance to Page 1 is the best possible result.
Yes. To clean up your online reputation, suppression is generally the best strategy – seeking to reduce the visibility of negative search results through a combination of new, high authority content and optimizing existing positive and neutral content. This is challenging for the layperson because it is very time-consuming and requires search engine optimization skills, which is why most people look for expert help from an experienced online reputation management firm.
One way to find out your online reputation is to do an Internet search. Type in your company name or your first name and last name, including variations (e.g., Mike and Michael) and geographic location. You may discover social media and/or business profiles, news mentions, images, videos, government records, and more.
