In general, you should take care to do the following:
Watch Your Online Reputation--the first step to improving your online reputation is to monitor it. This means Googling yourself regularly and reading what people have to say about you.
Claim Your Listing--quite simply, if you claim your business listings, then people will be less likely to write negative reviews about you. Just like if you're standing beside your car, vandals are less likely to mess with it. In a way, the Internet can be a dangerous neighborhood to leave your metaphorical car, but it can also be a wonderful one too where happy customers praise your business and you rise to the top of local listings because everyone loves you.
Respond to Negative Feedback--it's important to reply to negative feedback instead of letting it stand. This means being professional and answering the concerns raised by the online reviewers. Seek to mediate a solution to their issue and personally reach out to them online. By doing this, you show people you are aware of what the concerns are and that you're responsible about making sure customer complaints are dealt with.
Ask Your Happy Customers to Go Online--it's inadvisable to go online yourself and write good things about your business. Lying on the Internet is very transparent and to do so makes you look shady. But there's nothing wrong with contacting your loyal, happy customers and asking them to write good things about you. After all, why wouldn't they want to support the business they love?
