The rising use of services like Google Places, Google Maps, and social networks have made it more important than ever to concern yourself with online reputation management. There are an increasingly larger number of consumers posting reviews on various customer satisfaction sites like Yelp, Google Places, and Yahoo! Local and their integration with social networks like Facebook and Twitter make it easy for customers to share their bad business experiences. Add in the soaring number of blogger-written reviews influencing thousands of readers, demonstrating the supreme importance of controlling your online reputation.
Review sites and their user-created content often appear on the first page of search engine results, making them a significant target for online reputation management. Positive comments are always welcome but a negative comment can wreak havoc on your business. Being proactive about online reputation management protects your bottom line. For more detailed information, a detailed two-step process of implementation and best management practices is presented below.
Listen To Your Customer Base
As a business owner, you are busy and perhaps do not have time to peruse every review site, social network, and blog that mentions or reviews your business. However, monitoring what is being said online is the only way to listen to your business. There are a few tools available to help you streamline the monitoring process.
Set up Google Alerts. Google Alerts offers a simple and free way to find out what is being said about you online. Have your managers sign up, pick pertinent keywords, like your business name or that of your competitor, decide how often you wish to receive the alert, what types of content to search, and Google sends an email when the keywords are mentioned in a blog, news article, or other web content.
Buy software or enroll with a management service. Many software programs available for purchase offer a more in-depth method to track what is being said about your self storage business online. Additionally, there are reputation management applications and tools you can use for managing and overseeing social media mentions. Software services and reputation management tools are both designed to cultivate customer interactions, track engagement across various platforms, and provide feedback on where improved management is needed.
Respond and Engage
A fast, professional response to online remarks about your self-storage business impacts whether you end up with good PR or a negative PR experience. Engaging and connecting with individual tenants where they are online is the most direct and effective response.
The tone you respond with is just as critical to the timeliness with which you respond to negative reviews. Avoid further alienating your tenants with overtly defensive responses or obvious self-serving marketing or sales-driven pitches.
As the amount of online social sharing increases, managing your online reputation is an important aspect of your online presence. Having guidelines for engagement and responses in place help make sure your self-storage business reflects your company values online.

There is currently no clear evidence of the benefit from drinking increased amounts of water, yet the we-don't-drink-enough-water myth has endless advocates including the NHS, claimed GP Margaret McCartney.
The NHS Choices website states: Try to drink about six to eight glasses of water (or other fluids) a day to prevent dehydration.
While many schools also feel it appropriate to insist that pupils are accompanied to school by a water bottle, other organisations, often with vested interests, reinforce this message, she said.
For example, Hydration for Health (created by French food giant Danone - makers of bottled waters including Volvic and Evian) recommends 1.5 to 2 litres of water daily as the simplest and healthiest hydration advice you can give.
It also claims that, even mild dehydration plays a role in the development of various diseases.
But McCartney disagreed that that there is no high quality published evidence to support these claims.
While there are some conditions that do benefit from drinking increased water, such as in people with recurrent kidney stones, other evidence for preventing disease is conflicting, added McCartney.
There are many organisations with vested interests who would like to tell doctors and patients what to do. We should just say no, she concluded.
Her argument was put forward in this week's BMJ.

(1888PressRelease) Ferdinand Rennie Music. announced the release of FRC All Music Community, a new web platform which aims to bring together all music Industry stakeholders, like Musicians, Producers, Labels, Venus and Fans alike.
Ferdinand Rennie Music started out of a Songwriter?s passion and the cooperation of the German Pop Singer, Ferdinand Rennie and the involvement of the Professional Project Management Company Mountaintop Consulting.
Initially, the aim was to assist Ferdinand Rennie to gain international recognition but all too soon it was discovered there are many others like Ferdinand Rennie who produce great music but are ignored by the mainstream media. In order to provide a platform for start-up musicians as well as established ones, FRC All Music Community was created as a dedicated music promotion Web-Platform.
The FRC All Music Website release offers some of the most sought after features as well as several new capabilities such as allowing musicians and fans to interact.
Some of the features include the possibility to publish gigs automatically to GigMemories, one of the largest online gig databases. All songs uploaded to the FRC All Music Community are automatically checked for copyright compliance using the services of Audible Beats.
The FRC All Music Community Site will help musicians to balance daily life with the dream to become, or be, a full time musician. For most musicians the added pressure to create a web presence in order to attract fans or showcase their talent to a producer or label can be just overwhelming. Most artists believe the way out is to open a My Space or Facebook Account. That?s fine and serves a purpose, but does it sound professional if a producer or one of those bigger guys out there reads about the neighbour?s dog on a musicians fan page?
The advantage for Fans is obvious; it simplifies the task of keeping track of their favourite, without the clutter of the other countless large community sites. Some Fans find it hard to deal with the exposure to all those countless friends? requests and meaningless game offers.
Fans have taken to this All Music Niche Site, where they cannot only find information about their favourite Band or Artist but they can also listen to music and find other musicians the like.
One could get the impression the FRC All Music Community Site is only for new or start up musicians or artists, nothing could be further from the truth. Well established artists have learned or realised it is vital for their success to groom and nurture their fan community; therefore established musicians have taken a serious interest of the services offered.
What about the music producers or a representative of a label company? Most of those professionals get flooded with countless requests to listen to demo tapes where sometimes hope does not meet the talent. The FRC All Music Community Site offers a place to monitor a new artist, see how the skills improve and how his fan community grows!
As Tom Robinson, on the BBC Website states, he would prefer to receive an email with a link to a site and listen to the artist and judge his appeal to the wider community in their own time. Many other Producers or labels agree with this approach. FRC All Music Community offers all that and much more.
After 4 weeks of being live the FRC All Music Site has a growing user community and the traffic is sky rocking with a 1 month Alexia Page Rank of approx. 1million worldwide and 69,000 in Germany. Which is not surprising as it seems German niche Radio and TV stations have taken a liking to the page. The site is multilingual and offers currently 5 languages.
It is also encouraging to see well established Production Studios like the Chapel Studios, London, or AlpenStar Production, Vienna, have opened a Producer page at FRC All Music.
Basic Membership for Artists, Labels or Producers is free with the option to upgrade to subscriptions which will unlock additional features, like a shopfront. The uniqueness is, one cannot immediately sign up to a subscription, it is mandatory to open a free account first. As Roger Scott the Site administrator states, FRC All Music is not interested in a quick dollar. The aim is to form long term relationships with music industry stakeholders. What better way to do this as to test a service free of charge without risk and then make an informed decision to subscribe to the additional features. Music Fans will never be charged for a site membership.
FRC All Music Community will offer many more features and evolve to cater for music industry stakeholder needs.
The technology is in place to meet future traffic and bandwidth demands the site is hosted on a dedicated VPS server which can be clustered to ensure a smooth browsing experience.

MUMBAI (Reuters) ? Indian intelligence agencies received no warnings before the three bomb blasts that killed 18 people in Mumbai, the biggest attack since Pakistani-based militants rampaged through the financial hub in 2008, a top official said on Thursday.
Suspicion however fell on the Indian Mujahideen, a shadowy home-grown militant group known for its city-to-city bombing campaigns using small explosive devices planted in restaurants, at bus stops and on busy streets.
"There was no intelligence regarding a militant attack in Mumbai. That is not a failure of intelligence agencies," Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram told a news conference.
"Know that perpetrators have attacked and have worked in a very very clandestine manner. Maybe it's a very small group, maybe they did not communicate with each other."
He said it was too early to point the finger at a particular group, but said the "coordinated terror attacks" could be in retaliation to a number of plots recently stopped by police or the arrests, including from the Indian Mujahideen.
The Indian Mujahideen have been accused of having ties with Pakistani militant groups fighting Indian rule in Kashmir.
The bombings were the biggest militant attack on Mumbai since the 2008 assaults killed 166 people, raised tensions with neighbor and nuclear rival Pakistan, and left a city on edge.
The blasts come as India and Pakistan seek to normalize ties. Pakistani leaders were swift in condemning the bombings, as was President Barack Obama. Top U.S. diplomat Hillary Clinton is due in India for scheduled talks next week.
There was no immediate indication any Pakistani group was involved. But any suggestion of attributing blame to Islamabad would complicate a fraught relationship with India -- with whom it has a long-running dispute over Kashmir -- and further unravel ties with the United States.
"We live in the most troubled neighborhood in the world. Pakistan and Afghanistan are the epicenter of terrorism," said Chidambaram, adding that Pakistan had still not given India support in going after those behind the 2008 attacks in Mumbai.
HOME GROWN GROUPS?
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombs, which were mixed with ammonium nitrate, a chemical compound often used in improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
"It's very likely coordinated by Indian Mujahideen looking at the severity and scale of the attacks -- in the past they've used tiffin carrier bombs and IEDs," said Dr Rohan Gunaratna, a Singapore-based al Qaeda expert.
"Certainly there can be links between those who have done these attacks and overseas sources but the attacks themselves have been conducted by local groups, home grown Indian groups."
Chidambaram said 18 people had died in the attacks, lowering an earlier figure of 21. He said 23 out of the 131 injured and admitted to hospitals were in a critical state.
Newspaper headlines voiced a mix of resignation and outrage over the latest attacks on a coastal city of more than 10 million that is home to India's main stock exchanges.
"Attacked. Again," said the Hindustan Times. "We're All Sitting Ducks," said the Economic Times.
The blasts came as beleaguered Prime Minister Manmohan Singh struggles to get past a series of corruption scandals and a resurgent opposition that has led to policy paralysis in Asia's third largest economy. A cabinet reshuffle this week was criticized as too little, too late.
Mumbai has a long history of deadly bombings and Wednesday's attacks did not rattle financial markets. The home minister said the attacks were not aimed at markets.
JEWELRY MARKETS TARGETED
The bombings were centered mainly on south Mumbai's jewelry market area, crowded with diamond and precious metals traders and artisans. It was not the first time it was attacked.
The blasts occurred at about 6.45 pm (1315 GMT) on Wednesday within minutes of each other. One bomb was placed at the side of the road, another on a motorbike and a third on the roof of a bus stop.
The home minister said the bombs were detonated with timers, a clock or other triggers, but not done remotely.
The biggest blast was in the Opera House area, a crowded hub for diamond traders. Pakistani-based militants carried out the bloody rampage in 2008 near the same popular area.
Another blast, also in south Mumbai, was at the Zaveri Bazaar, India's largest bullion market which was hit twice in the past. The third blast was at Dadar, in a street housing Muslim and Hindu shops in the center of the coastal city.
