How To

This is the best way to send a press release

Now that we've covered how to write a press release let's discuss the best ways to distribute it. There are many distribution options, including traditional mail and email.

Follow these guidelines if email is your preferred method of communication

  • Your subject line should stand out. Your headline may not grab attention.
  • Be concise. Don't ramble on and on about your press release. Keep it short and sweet.
  • Your email should be written in plain English You wouldn't expect someone reading your email to understand technical jargon.
  • Include relevant images. Images go a long way toward getting people interested in what you're saying.

When writing your press release, keep these tips in mind:

  • Avoid unnecessary words, such as "we", “our," "I," "me" and "me."
  • Before you write your media release, think about the audience. What do they care about most? How can you connect with them?
  • Be sure to include URLs with your emails
  • Get permission before you send your press release. Before sending out your press release, ask the recipient if he would like to receive future news releases.
  • Don't spam. Send out only one copy of your Press Release.

Once you've written your press release, it's time to start distributing it. Next is to find the right channels that will get your message across. Here are five popular options:

Traditional Methods

Most likely, you already have a list that includes publications to which your press releases should be submitted. These could be magazines, trade journals or blogs, as well as local newspapers.

Many publications have submission fees and offer incentives for writers pitching stories. Some publications offer free subscriptions for each story published. Others give away a percentage of each article's revenue.

Although traditional methods are still possible, experts recommend that you submit your press release online.

Online Channels

Online channels can be a great way for you to reach potential readers. Websites like Google News, Yahoo!, Bing News and AOL also provide opportunities for press releases to appear on their sites.

Google News is a news site that has been around since 1996. It provides news feeds from all major media outlets. It is simple to find your company name amongst hundreds of other businesses.

Yahoo! Yahoo! News provides similar services, but is focused on news about specific topics. If you search your company name you'll see links that lead to articles related your business.

BING NEWS lets users search for keywords across its network of websites. This can be very useful when you are trying to find information on a specific topic.

AOL News provides similar services to Yahoo! AOL News offers similar services to Yahoo! AOL, while not as well-known and widely used as Google News and Amazon, offers a reliable service at a very affordable price.

Some publications let you post your press releases. Most magazines charge a monthly membership fee. Many websites offer press releases for free.

These include PRWeb, Press Release Monitor, PR Newswire, Business Wire, and others.

PR Web, founded in 1997, claims it is the largest site dedicated exclusively to press releases. It currently has more than 1 million members. It allows users to access thousands of press releases from businesses around the world.

PR Web offers an RSS feed, which automatically updates your website whenever someone posts a press release.

PR Newswire, another great resource for finding news releases, is also available. Their press releases database claims to be the most comprehensive.

You can also subscribe to their RSS feed to stay up-to-date on the latest developments in the press release area.

If you're looking to reach wider audiences than just online journalists, then print media might be the right choice. Many small businesses are unaware of the power that print media can have on their business.

Print ads are a great way to promote new products if you have a business that sells clothing, books, or electronics. Advertise in newspapers and magazines.

If you're looking for something a little different, check out your local newspaper's "free" section. There are many classifieds advertising positions available.

Also, you can contact local television stations. They might accept press releases as part their regular programming.

Press releases are still available

It seems like everyone is talking about mobile apps these days. But did you know that press releases are still very much alive? They're more important than ever.

In this day and age, people expect immediate results. To get noticed, your message must reach the right person. That means using every channel possible to do so.

Facebook ads don't always have to be expensive. Instead, look outside the box to find creative ways to connect with customers.

The bottom line is this: The best way to grow your business is through word of mouth. Customers will spread the word about your business to their family and friends. You can make sure your customers hear about it before they do.
