As you know, impersonations when it comes to social sites are nothing new. They were something predictable, in actuality – it is all human nature.
People who do not have much to do find it funny, and there is also people who do it for truly malicious purposes.
This new online resource aims to become the trusted source for information about which sites and social networking accounts really are associated with brands.
At Verifiedpages.com brands can sign up, become verified and then list the websites and social networking accounts that are actually associated with them. Confirmed brands can also list sites where they do not have an official presence, meaning anything on those sites is unofficial.
Brand verification always involves a quick manual review by the Verified Pages staff, but it is done mostly by brand managers themselves. Brand managers can authenticate accounts on Twitter, Facebook and MySpace, as well as by demonstrating access to a server at another website.
Standard accounts are free and allow brand managers to list accounts on Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and on other sites where they have access to the server. More thorough verification is a paid service which also includes additional features, such as the ability to list accounts at other social networking sites.
