Absolutely Tamuria. If we don’t know what is being said about us, we won’t be able to do anything about it. I had covered that in some detail in my recent teleclass on monitoring our brand using LinkedIn’s Social Selling Index.

I checked it today and have set up an alert as you suggested. It would be horrible to have your reputation smeared online but worse would be not knowing so you can do nothing about it. Thank you for the great advice.

That is a legitimate fear, Kevin. 🙂

Wouldn’t it be interesting to see what your namesake has been doing since? At least you would know what you need to disavow with Google!

I haven’t checked in a while, but there once was a guy with my same name, within a year of my age, who lived in the same town as me.

I’ve been afraid he would commit a crime or do something embarrassing, and people would think it was me. 🙂

Thanks Loralee. I ego surf every week and have also set up Google Alerts both for myself and the Karmic Ally Coaching Experience. I joined Brand Yourself during its early days and find their alerts very useful.

And I think it’s as essential (or possibly more) than keeping track of your credit score.

I’ve been using a free tool from BrandYourself.com to help me stay on top of my top 100 hits. I used to have a quarterly “ego surfing” date with myself, to see what I might want to clean up, but their system has made it just a tiny bit easier. Have you used it?

Congratulations Lisa. Looks like your hard work at maintaining your online reputation is working. Keep it up!

Good news – I googled myself and “my stuff” comes up on the first 3 pages when I use my full name . . . and all but one entry when I use only my first and last . . . so YEAH!

You are most welcome, Rachel. Looks like you have your work cut out for you. 😉 It does come as a shock when one self-Google’s and finds out that you or or your website are not at the top but doing this exercise regularly also helps to gauge your reputation and success to be first. All the best. Do let me know how it goes.

I googled myself and realized there are an awful lot of people with the same name as me. I’ll have to work harder at raising my SEO so that my blog comes up first (it was fourth after images — only a couple of which were me — and three other websites.).
