Reputation Management advice from Google includes REALTORS

October 16, 2009

On October 15th Google offered advice to businesses and business people and others who care about their online reputation. Here is a link Balto III: Wings of Change video to their advice.

The gist of the advice is this. Many people have been contacting Google asking them to “take down” or “de-index” negative information that has been published about them. Google is taking the opportunity to point out that this is NOT their job.

For REALTORS the problem often boils down to mixing personal information published on the web with business information. The result is that when someone searches for your name, they find other personal information that may or may not lead them to do business with you.

So how do you change this? According to Google it starts by first removing the offending information where possible by contacting those who own the site.

Secondly you can add positive information to crowd out the bad information from off of page 1 of Google.Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country the movie

    Since in your line of work you often have to deal with hundreds of photos, photos of construction sites or real estate property, you may need a solution to easily Watermark, Annotate, Resize or Convert those pictures in one go. I humbly suggest our own solution, BatchPhoto (www.batchphoto.com). If you are interested please contact us from our site.

    the big G does offer some pretty common sense tips. I do like the part about just staying positive and ousting the bad information off the first page of G. Here I thought politicians were the only ones who are getting sabotaged…

    That’s why it is important even when you think a website or social network is personal to keep in mind anything you put on there can potentially be seen by your clients and you must always keep that in mind.
