Overall, ego tracking is a very effective way to stay informed and maintain a competitive advantage over competitors. Knowing exactly what your competitors are doing online gives you a competitive advantage that can be used to your advantage. Keyword RSS feeds can be used to detect key phrases related to product abuse or to monitor the performance of a news feed.

Although the ego seems difficult to find, it is good in business life.
