9. Online Reputation Management (ORM) is about
improving or restoring your name or your brand’s
good standing on the Internet.
Page #7
Page #9
10. The Good standing of your brand is restored by
countering, weakening or eliminating the negative
material found in the Internet – defeating it with more
positive material to improve your credibility and
customers’ trust in you.
Page #10
12. As traditional news outlets continue to decline, more
and more consumers turn to the
Internet for their news and daily updates on current
events
Page #12
13. Whether researching the views of a political
candidate or ascertaining information about a new
product or service, the Internet user can easily
and effortlessly find the desired data through a simple
online search than through procuring
a newspaper or turning on a cable news channel.
Page #13
14. What’s more, online news outlets are increasingly
influential in shaping the content found in other, more
traditional media venues.
Page #14
15. The web is the starting place for news, trends, and
gossip. Because of this, a company, brand, politician,
or public figure can experience significant and at times,
irrevocable reputational damage when negative news
stories or unwanted publicity take root in online search
engines.

am amazed that the bad result is now buried way down
on (I believe) the fourth page.
I realize that the order of results are sometimes

way back closer to the top, but for now, this is fabulous!
Whatever you did, please don't stop doing it! Thanks. Ruth B
