Online Reputation Management is not always the bright side


If you are famous, you are surely to get more critics than fan following. Being actively involved with online goings-on doesn’t ensure your bright side to be always highlighted. You have to deal with bad things as well and that’s what we call the dark side of your reputation management. This dark side involves mugshot extortionist, cyber threat and others of same sort.

Nowadays there is no lack of such people who don’t hesitate deteriorating other’s image and earn by doing its patchwork; Mugshot extortionist are a part of that race. These blackmailers prominently display the mugshots (pictures taken for crime records by police) of the owners of reputed companies and offer their help as a specialist to amend that ruined image. The rates they charge for this service are sky rocketing and paying these people doesn’t ensure the popping of that mugshot in near times. So make sure you don’t pay these kinds, and it’s better to hire a professional consultancy for managing your online reputation, which will not cost you a fortune.

Another dark side is the threat of data and records being distorted in any way. There is no dearth of hackers online, so the confidential data and records are at great risk if they are available to be seen by other people online. Save yourself from being that naïve. Also hording your search results with positive ones only, will make your audience doubt the authenticity of your activities. Don’t buy more-than-required URLs for doing that job, just let your audience give the review of your product and also try to persuade them to post it on your site, or their site or your page on facebook and other places too. This will save you a great time.

  2. Mugshot Extortionist? I think one of my friends has dealt with it if that’s what they are known as. And you are right; their charges are pretty heavy on the pocket. I was aware of cyber threat and hacking and all but this term is new to me. And the worst part is that when even Google doesn’t check authenticity of origin of that content and when it comes to filing a report against such act that’s when it asks for authenticity. Anyway, is there any way to deal with such extortionist? Please tell..
