Using Online PR Distribution Services to Your AdvantageSusan L. ReidYou have something fabulous to announce to the world!So, what online press release distribution service do you use?![]() Before you do either, first consider what you want your press release to do for you. Do you want it to be primarily a public relations tool to get your news out? Or would you rather that it be a search-marketing tool that can provide search-engine visibility and target prospects? If you’re thinking like a savvy businesswoman, the answer is: both. You will gain excellent visibility if you: • Optimize your press release through the strategic use of keyword-rich headlines and body copy. • Include extensive links back to your website or specific landing page. • Distribute your release through the right online newswire services. When you optimize your press release, it will also be indexed quickly in the major search engines: Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Also, each time your release is picked up by another website, it also creates a link back to your site. Once you’ve decided what you want your press release to do for you, the next step is to determine which online newswire service (or combination of more than one) you want to use. Would a free service be best, or would a paid service be better? Free PR Distribution ServicesSome of these newswire agencies are free. Others offer free basic services and then charge fees for expanded services. Fees range from $20 to over $200 and are generally used by small to medium-sized online businesses. • www.i-newswire.com • www.pressbox.co.uk • www.pr.com • www.prleap.com • www.prlog.com • www.prweb.com • www.theopenpress.com • www.24-7pressrelease.com PR Web is on the leading edge of online news releases and is geared towards optimized press releases.
