PR optimization services from SEO Advantage® build credibility, accelerate search engine visibility and corner the market in your industry.
When you want to find something, you look online, right? Well, so do journalists who cover your industry. Optimized press releases raise visibility in the search engines, right where media personnel search for breaking news. Unlike traditional media releases, optimized press release services help your news appear at the top of search engine results pages and on news outlets like Google News and Yahoo News.

But now the opportunities available with emerging media and optimized press releases have increased the value of this tactic for you. Not only journalists and editors see your news now – it also reaches your potential customers and partners directly.

Are press releases worth it?
There was a time when press releases were only for the press, sent to a handful of targeted journalists in hopes of being mentioned in a story they were researching. Now, the Internet puts a company’s media communications at the fingertips of anyone looking for information.
For companies like yours, this means you now have the opportunity to reach both customers and members of the media with your online press communications. Consider that:
- Optimized press releases can show up high in search engines when ANYONE (not just media) searches on Google, Yahoo!, Bing, etc.
- Journalists turn to the Internet to find breaking news and research stories, then follow up on the news announcements and releases and communications that display in top results.
- Optimized press releases can help your website also show up higher when you optimize your press releases with appropriate keywords and linking tactics.
- You can generate mentions and links from others in the industry – bloggers, editors and authorities who will naturally present you as an emerging active industry force.
- Customers and potential partners often check out your company news pages on your corporate site to learn more about your business.
- The impact of a well-written, optimized press release can be felt long after it’s published. SEO benefits like inbound links build over time and remain in place for as long as you maintain your site, and your release continues to get attention for your business.
Regular press releases make your business look busy and successful, and an active press communications strategy online will help build your credibility and opportunities for exposure.
