Digital Footprint

A digital footprint is basically a history or trail left by you on the internet. Social networks, pictures, or accounts made by you can be traced by other people. Your digital footprint can be accessible on mobile devices, T.V., and computers. It is an imprint left by you on the internet.

A positive digital footprint is important because in the future jobs and schools can easily pull up your digital footprint and see what have you done in your past. If your digital footprint is not positive it might have a negative impact on things your interested in doing in the near future. So it is extremely important to make sure your digital footprint is positive. Also who you associate yourself online with is it important also because strangers over the internet can find out a lot of things about you through your digital footprint.
