Online Reputation Defender is a reactive Online Reputation Management service. Why is it reactive? Because we are building step by step, together with you an effective online reputation, by ensuring a positive message over the Internet when people Google for your name, services, products or any other important keyword, after identifying online reputation issues, negative results in the search engines.  Like this, you will dominate the first pages of Google by promoting your personal or corporate brand. Without an effective Online Reputation Management strategy, many individuals and especially companies receive negative results in Yahoo, Google, MSN which could be causing immeasurable damage. We try to minimize this damage!

The main idea is NOT to simply push down negative Google results, but to ENGAGE and understand why those negative results appear in the search engines. It is very tricky to decide how to handle negative results. This will be established by our Communication Specialists together with the client. Most of the Online Reputation Management companies don't engage negative results and this kind of strategy could backfire against the customers, against their company and ultimately  against their market share and profits.  It is useless to have a clean online reputation as long as your customers are unhappy and constantly write about this. Sooner or later these negative results will rank in Google and if they don’t rank, they will influence for sure other potential customers. You can’t simply ignore this category of clients! Ignoring a client and its demands it’s never a smart solution. Online Reputation Defender comes to rescue!
