Press Release Submissions ?

[bacati55]

I'm a professional copywriter and write a lot of press releases (I have a publicity/PR background).

Here are some general rules when writing and submitting press releases:

1. A press release is NOT an advertisement for your company.

2. A press release needs to be NEWS WORTHY and needs to read like a news story/article (Who, What, Where, When & How?)- why would the media want to read your story? What makes you different/stand out from your competition? What makes your company unique? What does your company/business/website offer to greater society/community?

3. If your press release sounds like a blatant ad for your products and services, free press release submission directories will REJECT your release.

4. Make sure to always include a direct contact includeing: phone number, email, website, and a direct contact name - not just the company.

5. Follow a standard press release template - you can find templates online. Keep press releases to ONE PAGE!!

I'd be happy to answer more specifics on press releases. Thanks!

The use of press releases is common in the field of public relations.

Typically, the aim is to attract favorable media attention to the PR professional's client and/or provide publicity for products or events marketed by those clients.

Moreover, a press release provides reporters with an information subsidy containing the basics needed to develop a news story.

I think that the advantage with press release is that it gives rapid spreading about the information. We can get efficient backlinks and drive traffic through this.
