When I talk or write about online reputation management, I always mention the growing number of Internet users that are getting out there and creating their own content. After all, the more people there are commenting, the higher the chances that someone will eventually start talking about you or your business. Gord Hotchkiss has some new data over at his blog that says 33 percent of Internet users are now creating some type of online content. That ranges from blogging (8%) to maintaining a web page (14%) to uploading images or videos (26%).
