Online Reputation Management (ORM) is a bit broader of a term, and is used to specifically manage the online reputation of a person, place, thing, site, brand, etc. They both sound pretty similar to the name so it is a great way to have a better understanding of what each are. That understanding is the key to making a wise decision especially when determining the needs of your company. Lets start with SEO since it is often integral to ORM, but ORM is not a part of SEO.<\/p>\n

what is SEO?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Search Engine Optimization is merely making a website, review, blog etc., as much as possible, meet the specific criteria that a search engine uses to determine ranking. Sounds simple and the basis for it is simple, but as the 27.9 million its in Google can attest, it is anything but simple. Here are small number of the most important things good SEO will incorporate (keyword refers to both \u201ckeyword\u201d and \u201ckeyword phrase\u201d):<\/p>\n

Search Engine Optimization incorporates these\u00a0 plus hundreds more. In this sense search engine optimization is truly optimizing your site\/content for the highest search engine ranking possible. If all that is SEO then what is ORM and why should a company not just pursue SEO?<\/p>\n

ORM is important and SEO is a key part of most ORM campaigns. Online Reputation Management is even more basic in its definition, but broader in scope of what it entails. Online Reputation Management is exactly what the phrase suggests, managing your online reputation. Looking closer at some of what could have an online reputation is where this becomes difficult. Basically anyone, anything, or any company has an online reputation. The obvious ones are: people, companies, and brands.<\/p>\n

ORM includes not just using SEO but in addition, social networking, blogs, review sites, etc. Managing your entire online presence is a very lengthy process. When you include all the above information then in becomes ORM. The goal of ORM is slightly different. Online Reputation Management is intended to move the content you choose into the order you want in a search engine, the bad down in Google search rankings the good up. With lower requirements, SEO is attempting to get a single page in the top.<\/p>\n

If you do not see anything negative about any of them, GREAT! You are ahead of the game. You have a couple of options from here and pursuing both of those options may be a smart move.<\/p>\n
