We, Howest students, want to keep the harmless fan websites for Prof. Koen Koreman online. This shows our appreciation and our SEO skills. To address professionalism concerns from management, we offer to add a disclaimer and a prominent link to his official LinkedIn page.
Students of Howest and supporters of the student initiative for Professor Koen Koreman.
That Howest management has concerns about the fan websites for Prof. Koen Koreman outranking his LinkedIn on Google. These sites were created with purely positive intentions as a harmless fanbase. They contain only praise, serve as great positive PR for the school, and prove that students can successfully apply their digital and SEO skills in practice.
The management of Howest to allow these tokens of student appreciation to remain online. We propose a compromise: the websites stay active, but we add a clear, professional disclaimer ("Unofficial student fan site") at the top, along with a prominent, direct link to the professor's official LinkedIn page. This ensures his professional network is accurately directed.
