Fortune Interactive - The Future of Search Marketing

: : :   Online Reputation Monitoring Service

The most recent findings from the Pew Internet & American Life tracking surveys and comScore Media Metrix estimates 60 million American adults are using search engines on a typical day.

What are reporters, consumers, clients, investors and employees learning about your organization when they search the Internet? Who's talking about your company?

Do you know what is being said about your company?

If you've ever tried to track your online reputation (or your competitor's) you've likely realized that monitoring thousands of news sites, millions of Web logs (blogs), message boards and user groups can be a daunting and time consuming task. In addition, being able to foresee what online content will become visible in search engine rankings can be a guessing game.

Your company's reputation is its most important asset - being immediately aware of a negative or erroneous article, blog post or forum comment can mean the difference between a proactive and a reactive response.

What is being posted about your company on message boards? What blogs have reviewed your new product? How can you determine what online postings "have legs" and require an urgent plan of action?

Fortune Interactive's area of expertise is Internet marketing and branding. Everyday our professionals help companies increase their online visibility via search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising and blog marketing. This knowledge is essential when it comes to understanding the nuances of consumer generated media, the reach of viral marketing and how search engines categorize information.

:: Why Do You Need This?

"Blogging will grow in importance, and at a minimum, companies should monitor blogs to learn what is being said about their products and services."

Charlene Li, Forrester Research

"...a corporation's next big critic could be anyone. He might be an angry customer or a disgruntled employee...all a blogger really needs to devastate a company is a bit of information and plausibility, a complaint that catches the imagination and a knack for making others care about his gripe"

The Economist, Feb 2006

"...tap into the deep, highly-relevant content held in blogs and discussion forums (of all types) for an understanding not only of what other items appear in a search-engine results page but also of what terms are bubbline up among target consumers..."
