Why do I need PowerName?
You've likely got an online reputation whether you know it or even want it. How you look online can affect your life in a big way – help or hinder a job search, for example. PowerName helps put control of your name back in your hands, where it belongs. We help YOU proactively secure how you look online by claiming the most important social profiles on the web on your behalf.
How does it work?
It's simple – you tell us what you want your username to be, and our proprietary technology makes sure you're registered that way, thereby ensuring that you’re in the one control of your online image. We'll give you access to all of your social site usernames and passwords within one convenient, secure location. You can pick and choose which profiles to add content to, and we'll alert you to the latest and greatest sites so you're always ahead of the curve!
What if my name is already taken?
No problem! We’ll help you determine which variations of your name will work best to manage your online presence.

Our Story
In the spring of 2006, ReputationDefender's founders came together to discuss an emerging reality of the Internet Age, that the line dividing people's 'online' lives from their 'offline' personal and professional lives was eroding, and quickly.
Founded in Louisville, Kentucky, ReputationDefender moved to Silicon Valley in 2007, where it's located today in Redwood City, California.
On July 1, 2008, ReputationDefender launched the second completed version of its product suite, made up of MyChild, MyReputation, MyPrivacy, and MyEdge.
