Controlling Your Online Reputation

About The Company:
ReputationDefender was created in 2006 to defend your good name on the Internet. Today, ReputationDefender has grown to be the world's first comprehensive online reputation management and privacy company. We're the most experienced and most technologically innovative company of our kind. With customers in over 35 countries, ReputationDefender is proud to serve a global customer base throughout the world's largest community - the Internet.

Our goal is straightforward:

  • To SEARCH out all information about you and your family throughout the Internet and present it to you in a clear, easy-to-understand fashion
  • To provide DESTROY assistance, helping to remove, at your request, inaccurate, inappropriate, hurtful, and slanderous information about you and your family using our proprietary in-house methodology. This same mission extends to your personally identifiable information, like name, address, and phone number.
  • To deliver CONTROL over how others are able to perceive you on the Internet

When I first heard about this company, I was mad that I did not think of it sooner. I have not used ReputationDefender.com myself because I have enough time to do it myself.

They have a few different plans: the MyReputation- which is for you (and a spouse), the MyChild- which watched your child/teens activity online, the MyPrivacy- for your and your family's data. Take control on your private info. There are many sites that give away your info without your knowledge or permission, the MyEdge (beta)- is online PR. Control what results come up when your name is looked up online.

The MyChild plan is great for parents that are not real internet savvy but know that their kids could be hurting their future. Kids today do not think about what they are doing online (colleges, future employers, etc.. will do internet searches on your child). And, they do not want to hear about it either, so the MyChild plan is really the only way you can protect their future.

I think the government should offer this for free to parents (at least low-income parents).

I am not sure if they have any plans for businesses, which probably need this kind of service too.


If anyone has used (or still uses) ReputationDefender lets us know what you thought about it and if it really defended your reputation online.
