@ms_moretto Two-factor authentication is also a good way. However, if someone with the proper skills decides to hack into your account, you might not ever be safe. I know someone who this happened to recently. They had all the security in but the hacker still got in. It's scary.
@Anneice8 It also might stays even if you delete it everywhere. We don't know if someone has screenshotted or downloaded something without us knowing. Also, computers and the internet remember everything, even if we try to completely remove something online, there is still a way to find it
@Alyssamf95 I highly agree, as no matter what you do, some people will find any way to sabotage your online presence. I think the best way to be online is to make your personal account strictly for people you know and trust to follow and any business account can be public.
@KhawlaEdali Online platforms are definitely amazing for promoting businesses but because of personal experience, I learned that it is usually only successful if you have some knowledge of advertising or promoting online since there are certain tips and tricks to success.

What purpose do professional networking sites serve?

An unsuccessful online presence to me looks like constantly oversharing your private life on public social profiles. This can open the way for hackers and other predators to be able to easy find and track you, putting you in danger. #EDST1160
A successful online presence to me looks like thinking twice before commenting or posting something, especially when another person is involved. It could negatively affect both your and their reputation permanently. #EDST1160
