In the age of the world wide web, technology has used its advancement in not so flattering ways. While information is used to provide many with educational sources, others are finding the web to use against a persons’ reputation.
Many sites contain information that can be devastating to a person’s reputation. This information can have damaging effects on a person’s credibility and livelihood. InternetReputation.com works to limit, and often eliminate, the effects of this information through reputation management services.
Localblotter.com provides visitors free access to continually-updated news stories, all pertaining to recent arrests of individuals across the country. Most of this information says nothing about the accused person’s conviction status, yet each news snippet includes the suspect’s name, a brief overview of the pending charges and an accompanying mugshot photograph.
A person’s guilt or innocence of their accused crime is not shown on Localblotter.com. In fact, Localblotter.com lists a disclaimer near each snippet and mugshot, explicitly stating that though sincere efforts have been made to maintain the data’s integrity, there are “no claims of guarantee surrounding the accuracy of such facts.” The data, though explicitly not guaranteed, could have extremely harmful consequences on the featured individual’s reputation, making it difficult to pick up the pieces.
The technicians at InternetReputation.com have a way to combat the negative information and mugshots affecting people’s reputations. Through the use of reputation management, InternetReputation.com is able to effectively bury sites like Localblotter.com deep down in search engine results pages, making it far less likely for someone to find these records, while performing a targeted search.
Arrest and criminal records can be a major online nuisance to a person’s reputation. These records can overshadow positive information in a hurry, creating misconceptions, affecting potential hiring and damaging personal relations. There is possibly no end to the damage this type of information can wreak on anyone’s life, making the implementation of an effective reputation management strategy essential to one’s online presence.
InternetReputation.com has the tools and experience to push revealing sites like Localblotter.com further into web obscurity. This helps reduce the likelihood of someone, whether a family member, friend, employer or stranger, from coming across the negative information. Negative information, even mugshots, may exist online, but that doesn’t mean it has to be an albatross on a person’s reputation.
