2. “Reclaim your online identity!”
Did you know?...
Every business in the world has an online identity whether they know it or not. From the
smallest start-up to a multi-generational family business to Fortune 500 companies, all businesses have
a web identity made up of websites, directory listings, and search engine content. The Internet contains
a wealth of information on local businesses. Unfortunately, not all information is trustworthy and could
have been placed there by someone other than the business owner. Large companies employ entire
departments of technicians to ensure that the company’s identity, brand, and web appearance are
accurate, placed where consumers can find it and, most importantly, not stolen or manipulated by
competitors! That’s right, without competent supervision taking corrective measures to ensure your
business’s online identity always points back to you, your business information is at risk.

NetCare Claimed Profiles service is a critical component of visibility and information security.
We create (or claim) your Google, Yahoo, and Bing listings, as well as create profiles on
Facebook, Foursquare, Yelp, Twitter and many others where valuable customers are searching.
With your online identity secured through NetCare, you can feel confident that when people
search for your business information, they will indeed find information on your business, not
your competitors - and not an address in the middle of a corn field. Once claimed, we hand you
the keys to these new profiles, providing you the opportunity to enhance, update, and reach out
to consumers. Websites add credibility, but without proper syndication, exposure is limited.
NetCare is the lifeline many small businesses have been searching for.
Know Your Score
NetCare evaluates your business’s online identity using a unique algorithm
that crawls the Internet in search of information about your business,
including major search engines and directories. The information that is
found is then reconciled against a bank level verification of your business
listing by accessing the most reliable credit information service providers
in the world (like Dun & Bradstreet, infoUSA and Acxiom). An accuracy
and effectiveness score is assigned to each identity holder, along with
examples of discrepancies and information issues that need to be
addressed to improve the score.
The Statistics are Astonishing!

Quantifiable Results
NetCare’s Local Identity Report offers an in-depth examination of your listing health for a single busi-
ness location. We identify where your listing is present or missing across top local search sites. Addi-
tionally, we report on the accuracy of listing information and the presence or absence of
important data such as website links.
Imagine if you had no idea what your credit score was! Well, businesses have online scores too. Search
Engines, Publishers and Portals want to display those with the best score. What is your online score?

To monitor your online presence by yourself, you’d have to visit Google, Yahoo, Bing, Ask, Yelp, Yellowpag-
es.com, Local.com, Superpages, and hundreds of other sites to review and correct your listings. Time sav-
ings, depth of distribution, access to non-public databases such as GPS Devices, Mobile Devices and 411
directories are just a few of the notable advantages of managing your online information with NetCare. With
over 350 digital distribution points, one could imagine the time spent managing this enormous task. Many
directories and data providers require re-listing the data annually, so we have to repeat many of these pro-
cesses on an ongoing basis. In an effort to keep data fresh and information about your business accurate,
some directories remove listings if they are not actively updated.
If you do not renew your NetCare account, your records will be removed from our “active” file that we provide to directories. Different
sites and distribution partners will treat deactivated NetCare listings in different ways. Some may keep the listings active temporarily
and some may delete the record immediately, this is beyond our control.
