We have all heard “A good reputation takes years to build and minutes to ruin”. Or, “A man is only as good as his word”. And, “Actions speak louder than words”. These are all part of developing a good character. In the social media community it is the same as on the street.

Here are 5 simple guidelines for appropriate social media behavior to maintain a respectable reputation among the internet community.

1. The social media community holds high regard for honesty, so transparency is extremely important when identifying yourself and or your community.
2. When posting a status update or comment do NOT spam or be offensive.
3. When offering advise remember to stick to your area of expertise. Also, be able to substantiate any factual claims.
4. If you need to disagree with another’s opinion, always be polite and appropriate. Stay in control emotionally so as not to seem defensive.
5. Be very careful to protect private and confidential information about yourself and business. Remember, once you’ve published or submitted something on the internet, you will be widely accessible for a very long time!

So, a simple way to build and maintain a good reputation is to always remember and follow these words: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”.
