Google has launched a new way to search for individuals called Google Profiles.Setting up a Google Profiles account takes only a couple of minutes.
The screen shot below shows a snapshot of the new Profile listing, which can be found at the bottom of the search results. Claim yours quickly!
Recognition and reputation is crucial in today's global and digital economy. The new Google Profiles feature adds a new dimension to the reputation funnel. In addition to getting your picture added to Google's main search results page, you also get an informative profile page seen here (which includes photos, general information, and location):
Startup's, SME's, Fortune 1000's, doctors, attorneys, contractors, and others are consistently subjected to background searches.
Profiles on the top search engines and social network sites should reflect your professionalism and personality. Your photos and information on these sites should reflect the hard work invested in your company and personal life. Poorly maintained social network pages and incriminating photos can play detrimental roles in future business relationships.
Google Profiles adds either a new element of positivity and awareness to your personal or business brand, or gives you an opportunity to help clean up an already tarnished brand. Take advantage of it!
