A digital footprint is a mark, a trace or a trail you leave on the internet. We all have digital footprints, be it from uploading pictures/videos, emails or the biggest one of all, our social networking sites. We have all been on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or even Tumblr, one point in our lives. But just by watching a video, searching up friends or uploading your new profile picture, you are leaving your digital footprint. Everything we do online contributes to our digital footprint.
Our digital footprints connect us to millions of people around the globe. Via Skype, Oovoo, Kik, Viber. Everything we post online will be displayed to thousands of people and even if you delete something doesn't mean it's completely gone. It may seem gone to you but it will always be there. So remember, think before you post.
A way to find your trace of your digital footprint, look yourself up on Google. Type in your full name and hit search. See what shows up and examine your digital footprint.
