Online Reputation Management VS. Online Public Relations. What’s the difference? Which is better? Which one would serve you best for your situation?
If the WWE “Professional” Wrestling association (aka Hulk Hogan, obviously we aren’t up on our pro Wrestling), wants to create a character or persona for a new wrestler, and they want that persona to be a total bad guy with no scruples, etc.. and they want to promote that character online, would they use Online Reputation Management or Online Public Relations? If they used Reputation Management, would it be called Reputation Un-Management? If they used Public Relations, should it be called public un-relations?
Simple answer is “no”, purposely creating a “bad” public profile would be no different that creating a positive one. There is similar indifference in “PR” and “Reputation Management”. The only difference may be that there is existing negative information that one wants obfuscated, so it lends itself to the term “Online Reputation Management”.
Originally, when CleanSearch started back in 1999, this scenario was called “Online Image Protection”, however, the confusion with the word “image” soon created a necessity for an alternate label. Did “image” indicate pictures, or did it indicate one’s total persona?
While consumers may be looking up varying search terms, the logistics of achieving their goal, even digitally, is decades old. Let’s put it this way. If you have a great Public Relations set up, any needed Online Reputation Management will utilize this exact system, conversely, if you need Online Reputation Management, a great PR system is what you need to create.
