You may like it or not, but we live in an interconnected world. You can decide to never post on social media and to never publish on any other platform. However, information about you and images from you or from your family are accessible on Internet. Googling your name is frequently the first thing, a competitor, a future client, a future employer, a future partner, a banker, or a malevolent person, will do. It is of importance you make a periodic review of your numerical reputation to decide to remove what you can remove or to limit its audience, to identify attacks against your reputation that you should burry or even replace (This is possible.), to identify positive third-party publications that you should promote and to assess the result of your efforts for occupying your numerical space by your own and/or favorable material.
Here, I will show you a quick analysis that I perform periodically because I was under fire of the French Far-right, in the past, and because I have a cybercriminal, located in a grey zone of international laws (Pakistan), who is after me for more than two years and a half, on blogs, on Facebook and on Twitter (more than 8,000 stalking tweets). After this review, I can attest the resilience of my numerical fortress. No attacks are visible on line.

It is impossible to secure a numerical reputation with anonymous accounts. First Google Search Result Page (SERP) shows that I control all the answers. It can be observed that my social media come on top mostly because they are identified under my real name and because they are all linked. My stronghold is my personal blog, https://bernardgrua.net, which has a high rank in English AND in French languages Actually, everything is monitored from there. If you don’t have any website or blog, I suggest you to use « Google Site ». It is free. It is an easy tool for any beginner. The result is flattering. You can go there at your own rhythm. First, you can have just one page. You will subsequently add extra pages. Meanwhile, your website becomes older. It gives you a legitimacy bonus for SERP’s.


Observe below how the Twitter carousel is high in the SERP and the large space it covers. Note also the size of the window for images. It maximises the occupation of the numerical space, leaving less opportunities for intrusions on the first SERP.
