Personal Branding: Your Google CV, Web Presence and Reputation Management
Improving one’s web presence through online branding is easy enough these days. But sometimes your Google CV doesn’t reflect your true potential – or maybe it is populated with results for someone with a similar name.
Bad associated publicity can hamper your online success, but with a decent amount of effort, your self marketing efforts can build your Google CV into masterpiece.
Personal Branding Tips
A good start to improving your Google CV is to try and penetrate the sites which are already listing results for your name. If possible, create accounts at these sites with information about you and your products or services. And make sure that all these sites are interlinked.
Make sure your own website is well optimised for search engines and always be sure to include your brand names and other valuable key phrases in your web content. A great way to increase online visibility is to own your domain and variations, or at least as many domains as you can which include your name, and redirect them to your site or blog.
Social Networking
Create a profile for yourself or your brand at all the major social networking destinations such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. These types of services can be used to gather information about your market, release information about you or your brand, and increase your visibility and transparency while making valuable contacts.
Submit your news to social book marking sites when you’ve published a new blog post or article. The most popular international social book marking sites include Digg, Reddit and StumbleUpon.
Online Reputation Monitoring
By setting up a few simple reputation management tools, you’ll automatically receive notification about any content online which includes your keywords. By knowing what the public are saying about you or your brand, you have a better understanding of your audience, and how to go about creating content to improve your Google CV and overall credibility.
Creating Content
Create a blog and always be sure to generate interesting content using the most relevant keywords. Blogs are free and a great way of creating formal content in an informal environment. Write articles and submit them to external sites (also keeping keywords in mind). Write them or have them written and then distribute to the many free article directories available online, linking back to your website or profile on your desired social networking site.
How far you’d like to take self marketing is up to you. There are many things you can do to increase your impact online and start owning your Google CV – consider how you can create a relevant buzz. Create podcasts, viral videos or other interesting rich media and write a blog post to go submit with each one – be sure to notify users on Twitter of your YouTube videos – your YouTube viewers about your Twitter activity, and so on.
Honesty is the best policy – as your online visibility improves, so will your online credibility. By being more active online and engaging with users, you have potential to build relationships which are ultimately more important to both your credibility and web visibility than anything else.

Money-making machine extraordinaire, Google it can be said effectively runs the Internet. But how does Google make money? Here’s the secret behind Google’s billions.
To the layman, the thing is simply a search engine a fairly convenient device on a white background where you type in your query and get your answers. The search engine is more or less the best one that exists and if you’ve ever been on the Internet, you’ve probably used it. You’ve also probably noticed that the Google search engine is free and you need to pay zilch for using it. It’s no ‘demo’ version either and you can use it repeatedly and will still be free of cost. And then you hear about the Googleplex the creatively designed, sprawling office which houses the heftily paid employees of Google. You hear of the profits they are raking in all on a service which is provided free of charge and no caveat emptor clauses for use. And your question precedes you: How does Google make money?
Thinking about how to make money with Google? Well, it is not that a herculean task, you just need to be a bit aware and smart enough to know what will attract clicks on your website, or a single page or the likes. Scroll down to find out more.
If it is not on Google, then it does not exist!
Yes, this has not been said, or mentioned, by anyone in particular, but this is somewhat a reflection of the times we are living in, and the way Google is being used. Yes, I mean it is such a natural reaction for those who have an access to the Internet to look up on Google search engine if they want to know about anything. You ask someone ‘do you know who is that?’ and you get the answer ‘just Google it’! But there is another aspect to Google than just searching. That is you can make money with Google pretty much easily! Didn’t know that? Want to know about it? Coming up – making money on Google!
Webmasters place advertisements on their site to (hopefully!) help their web site visitors find additional information and products that are relevant to their site’s theme and therefore what those visitors came to their website looking for. Of course, it also helps if those advertisements also make money for the webmaster!
Unfortunately, serving advertisements online isn’t always easy. Many advertisement companies offering the service of placing ads on our sites have managed to turn the advertisement business into one big mess. Thousands of sites are bogged down with non-relevant pop-ups, pop-unders, pop-ins and banners.
What happens to our sites if these advertisements rarely hit their mark? No matter how many banners and pop-ups we show about herbal remedies to our visitors if we run a website about car parts they will not be interested and they will never click on those ads.
