The internet profoundly affects any kind of business. That is why most businesses today use the internet to spread the word not only within a locality but to a much wider audience.
However, placing your business on the web is not a simple matter of creating a website and putting all your products and services in a fancy layout. There is also some work to be done which, when given proper attention can boost sales. Apart from letting people know what you can offer the public, you also need to ensure that you maintain a good reputation that can win people’s trust. You, as an entrepreneur, need to protect the image of your business.
Negative views about your business should always be addressed. Managing your online reputation is no longer just an option, but a necessary strategy to keep your business going.
Here are some tips on how to do this.

Never take any negative criticism personally. Sometimes, the worst feedbacks are the ones that can help you strengthen your business.
