An online press release can be a great way to reach out to a large online community. This article will tell you everything you need to know to make a well-written, well-optimized press release for PR distribution through the press release network. A well-written press release would get the attention of journalists and be easy to send to the right people.
The most important part of press release optimization is choosing the right key words. When choosing a keyword phrase that fits the product or service you are selling, be very careful. Wordtracker.com is the best tool to use to look for keywords.
Position of the keyword or phrase: Put the keyword or phrase in the headline and title of your press release. Try to say it almost two or three times in the release.
The beginning should be strong: Make sure that your title and first lines say what you want to say. The rest of your press release should have the information in more depth.
Use the product name over and over: Use the name of your service or product over and over to make it stand out. For example, if you wrote "Search Engine Optimization" instead of "SEO," your product name would be a lot more well-known.
Write it for journalists and media agencies. Journalists and media agencies would pick up your press release and put it in their publications. They might change it a little bit.
Think about what your audience is interested in. You should think about who you are writing your press release for and what they are interested in. Think about whether you would want to read the press release you have written if you were a member of the audience.
Make sure your press release is useful: Readers are already smart enough to figure out "what's true and what's not" about your company or organisation.
Make sure your story is based on real events: Don't use false examples or add ons. If the content has a lot of extras, make it seem natural and real. The active voice, not the passive voice, should be used in your press release. Active verbs bring your press release to life.
Use only the words you need. Don't use extra adjectives, fancy language, or phrases like "the most powerful" that aren't necessary. Tell your story in fewer words, because too many words can take away from what you're trying to say.
Avoid using jargon. However, if you want to optimise your news release for search engines, you can use a small amount of jargon if you need to. The best way to get your press release out there is to speak clearly and use regular language.
Don't use too many exclamation points (!): Using them too much can hurt your press release. But only use one exclamation point if you have to.
Get permission from the company. Companies are very protective of their name and reputation. So, get written permission from the company before you put in any information or quotes about it.
Information about the company: The press release should have a short description of the company that talks about your company, its products, services, and a little bit of its history.
Choose the right PR distribution network: It's also important to choose the right PR distribution network. There are a lot of free networks for sending out press releases, so it's important to choose whether to go with paid services or free ones.
Offer RSS feeds: Help journalists by giving them RSS feeds, which will bring them to your website. Through this, people who are interested will find out that you have a relevant press release on the subject they are looking for.
Publish press releases often: Try to publish press releases often so that Yahoo News and Google News will know you as a news source.
