Search Engine Reputation Management – Say What?

Atlanta Search Engine Reputation Management Firm Prominent Placement Trolls for Trash Talk

What is being said about you on the web and how can you manage it better? Consumer-generated media (CGM) is thriving and giving mass media a run for its money -- anybody with an opinion or an agenda can make their feelings known online.  Atlanta search engine reputation management firm Prominent Placement helps you combat trash talk on the web.

With Search Engine Reputation Management (SERM), Prominent Placement monitors negative mentions of your company name/brands on the web on a monthly basis.  If a competitor is using your brand name in a paid ad, we’ll file a complaint.  Often, we can work with you to effectively push “negative” organic search results out of the forefront through link building, revising content on your social media sites, and other tools to out-rank negative results.

Regardless of what we find, being in the know about what others are saying gives you the power to address it sooner rather than later, deploy PR crisis management if necessary, or involve an attorney as appropriate.  In addition to negative mentions, Atlanta search engine reputation management firm Prominent Placement often uncovers supplemental link-building opportunities that we can use to your advantage.
