Two core methods are auditing your existing online presence (searching your name, reviewing social media profiles, and removing outdated content) and limiting future data exposure (adjusting privacy settings, using strong passwords, and being selective about what you share or submit to websites).

Your digital footprint is unique and includes all digital communications and activities you partake in. This includes data you give to websites, emails you send and pages you build.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An example of a digital footprint is a post you make on a social media site such as \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftwitter.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter\u003C\u002Fa> or \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.facebook.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook\u003C\u002Fa>.

It is a construct of your reputation and personality, which affects things like career prospects, dating and anything else that judges character.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F10\u002F19193519\u002Fdigital-footprint-2.jpg\" alt=\"A picture of a digital foot floating above a mobile device.\" class=\"wp-image-35510\" srcset=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F10\u002F19193519\u002Fdigital-footprint-2.jpg 800w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F10\u002F19193519\u002Fdigital-footprint-2-450x450.jpg 450w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F10\u002F19193519\u002Fdigital-footprint-2-150x150.jpg 150w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F10\u002F19193519\u002Fdigital-footprint-2-768x768.jpg 768w\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A digital footprint defines who you are online.\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We spend increasing amounts of our time online so it makes sense to present similarly to how we present offline. Just as it’s very hard to rectify big mistakes offline, it’s difficult as well online.

Every time you do something online, it’s stored forever. Even if you delete a post, what you typed has already been saved. The reason this happens is because of how easy it is to store data rather than delete it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This probably sparks worry and negative thoughts in a lot of people – we’ve all made mistakes – but it can be a positive as well.

Think of molding your persona with every new online post or communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, figure out which areas you’d most like to be involved in. Once you determine where to post, form a posting strategy. Use the footprints of others to help build your own. There are plenty of successful people using online spaces to represent themselves. Get ideas based on how they behave online and construct your own plan accordingly. Once you’ve established an online presence, evaluate how your digital footprint would be seen by others. Adjust it if necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continue to construct your digital footprint with confidence, precision and professionalism. It is always there and you could always be judged by it.
