StepRep Monitor Your Online Reputation

Thanks to Joel Busrlem at the future of Real Estate Marketing for his post today on 5 Ways to Managing Your OnLine Reputation. One of the new apps to do this is StepRep. (If you don't subscribe to this blog you are missing out).

Here is a short one and half minute YouTube video that will get you started with StepRep.

Although it is still in beta, I went and tried it out and you can see the new widget on my side bar. It searches the web for all the places you are mentioned and you have the opportunity to rate the information as Good, Bad, Irrelevant. If you rate it good, you can add it to your widget which it creates as you go through all the places you are mentioned.

Although I still love Google Alerts for instant results when I am mentioned in a post or online, I think this app is cool. You will notice I came up for Localism, Activerain and my outside blog. Also Joe Manausa's post on The Carnaval of Market Reports that he puts together each month for agents that want to participate.

I did find a post by Jay Ehert of the Marketing Spot blog where he had mentioned one of my posts here back in July. In light of all the social media sites we are joining it is important that we monitor our online presence.

Missy,

Bookmarked for later (hubby is watching a movie right now). Thanks for assisting me with how to deal with internet leads. Calling on the phone (if they give a valid number) has proven highly successful.

Fran, yea I knew it would.

Everyone, once you set this up, it will send you other notices when things come up. I made the widget smaller for my side bar.

Hi Missy - Thanks for the post. There's a sort of social aspect to StepRep as well. You can add people to your trusted list which gives them more points and ranks them higher on the list in their region. I have added you to my trusted list!
