Libellous Accusation Repair

By Matt Zackery

How to Fix Libellous Accusations Online

Negativity is infectious, and, thanks to the Internet, it's a bug that sticks around. Anybody with a grudge against a person or a business can type out an attack that will find its way to the top of a search in no time. And which can, of course, damage a business. Or a reputation. Getting rid of that negative comment can seem nearly impossible for the afflicted person.

Lest you feel like the Internet is just out to get you, think again. In the last few years, reputation repair services have begun to appear out there on the electric frontier. They're like the cowboys protecting your Internet virtue in this new Wild West. They'll make sure you get a fair shake, fight back against the negativity.

Libellous Internet Accusations Can be Squashed

It's all about links, you understand. The more sites which link to a site, the higher it'll rank. So the reputation repair service uses good old search engine optimization to put content above the sites with the bad stuff, which forces it down like dinosaur bones. It can drop a hundred search pages or more. At that point, like the dinos, it's ancient history.

If only people in the real world could be made to forget by having good things replace the bad. Well, maybe that's a bit creepy, but for the purposes of online searches it's a way of balancing the scales against some grudge-holder who wants to wreck your reputation. Plus, you didn't have to get litigious or use some choice language against anyone. The problem, literally, just went away.

Libellous Accusations Aren't Forever

What if you've never made someone mad before? What if you're an online saint? It's possible people have still never heard of you, nice guy that you may be. In this case it might perhaps still behoove you to make use of the reputation repair services skills with search engine optimization and push your saintly name up to the top of the results.

That Internet is one wacky place, I tell you. Well, I don't need to tell you. You're already here! And so it's probably also clear to you that you have an online image, whether you run a business or are just looking for a job. And so, for my sake, remember to take good care of that image. Don't turn your back on it or sure as you're sitting there at your keyboard someone will come along and tinker with it, ruin it, control it if they can. It's not that hard. But it's also not that hard to defend it, if you know where to go.
