The very first thing I need to clear that Online reputation management has nothing like social media marketing or it has nothing to do with public relation. Even people have no idea that how online reputation management can impact on their sales and business.
Online reputation management is anything (positive or negative) about your website that people say can make an effect on you and your website. By managing and monitoring what other people are talking about your website is a vital part of maintaining your brand. This process is called as Online Reputation Management.
It’s not a one day process; it takes hard work and your time to create brand value. But, the most difficult part is to maintain your brand value. A Facebook comment on your page, a tweet about your brand can harm your brand reputation. You cannot expect people to say good things about your company every time and it’s not necessary whatever you do, share they will like it every time and they will share it with others too. The best way to do is to respond positively and change your strategies if needed.
