What is ORM (Online Reputation Management)?

So many definitions and so many people are still confuses what is ORM or Online Reputation Management.

Let me simplified the whole concept of ORM and try to make it very simple and transparent. “Reputation is what people see you what read about you and by virtue of the same they generate the image as per their gathered information from various sources.

So Online Reputation is “To acquire the maximum space on web with more positive way with clear intended branding objective for a product, service or a individual that is controllable and manageable”

Its now in practice and human nature that to know a brand or a personality, we dig on web and read contents that are there on web, and our imagination go in the same way and we create a image or reputation of the same the way we read and see it. Next time when it comes to our sight, our mind pokes to those contexts and create same image. This is how reputation gets built or destroyed in the eyes of public.

Simple Rules of ORM

As there was no concept of ORM way back in 2000 or 2004 on web, I have observed with my knowledge earned in these years that “A good ORM process is the need of the day and can be done by understanding the concept, whether you need it for immediate solution or for long term and understanding the objective. This process includes careful selection of platforms that are available on web and can be used to distribute the contents which are again carefully created contents and then putting those contents on controllable and manageable platform available on web and make sure it convey the desired objective like for branding and positive reputation without leaving loose ends. Selection of these web based platforms should be carefully chosen, creation of content should be engaging and aspiring and realistic in nature. Segments of putting those contents should be perfectly programmed and aligned with the branding and objectives.

What is more interesting I find about Online Reputation Management is that it has greater effect then doing simple Social Media or SEO.
