Online Reputation Management (ORM) agency Go Fish Digital launches to protect businesses, brands, and individuals

ASHBURN, Va., Aug. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Go Fish Digital announces its new website offering online reputation management, search engine optimization, social media marketing, and web design services.   Started in 2005 as the SEO and web design agency MangoCo, now doing business as Go Fish Digital, the agency offers increased services to manage brand identity and reputation online. 

"We succeeded in controlling the first two pages of Google search results for a few of our clients' brand names in 2010 before Online Reputation Management was even an industry.  It grew out of a need for our clients and we adapted quickly," explained Go Fish Digital's Co-Founder Brian Patterson.

YouMoz published and promoted to the front page of industry leading SEOMoz's website Brian's article on his successful strategy for online reputation management in January 2011.

Go Fish Digital, based in Northern Virginia, now has clients world-wide.  Its clients range from highly visible individuals to well-known brands.  Many have been affected by negative online content, Google Autocomplete problems, and false or misleading Wikipedia posts.   

Word of mouth and online reviews are the two most trusted forms of advertising (92 percent and 70 percent, respectively) according to an April 2012 Nielson Report.  Comparing those statistics with user trust for online banner ads (just 33 percent) it is clear that companies need to monitor, engage, and protect their brands through social media and proactive reputation management.

Negative actions of an employee can have devastating effects on a brand's online reputation.  Go Fish Digital offers services including Wikipedia page management, protection from negative Google Autocomplete suggestions, harmful reviews, and negative content appearing on the first two pages of Google.  Go Fish uses a mix of Search Engine Optimization, social media marketing, content creation, and website development, among other techniques.

"There is no silver bullet.  Each project is unique.  ORM takes in depth knowledge of SEO, social media, web development, public relations, writing skills, and more," says Go Fish Digital's Partner Dan Hinckley.

Go Fish Digital's staff includes skilled writers, IT developers, long time SEO managers, graphic designers, web developers, and public relations specialists. For additional information visit: http://www.GoFishDigital.com
