  • A press release is something that a company puts out to attract major news attention. When Apple announces a new iPhone, that's a press release, when a company announces they are doing an IPO, that's a press release. When a company announces a merger, that's a press release.

    Basically, it is something newsworthy, and NOT an article. You can't write it in first person, and it must have news about product or services, or some happening. It can't be seen as a sales pitch either. I personally find them harder to write because of the restrictions in HOW you can write. Having said that, if you do a search on Google for The Big Press Release Samples Book (free), you'll have more examples for any kind of niche, product, service, etc. then you'll know what to do with. I went so far as to have it printed and bound as it really helps me out. Hope that helps!

    Press releases should be reserved for 'newsworthy' events. If you, your company or your brand are doing something that you think the public would be interested in or that could some how benefit them, let them know via a press release. Press releases are not blog posts or generic articles and should never be used as such.

    If you do intend to write a press release and distribute it via one of the online services, wait until you've done that to post it on your website. Better yet, just link to the PR itself, once it's online via the services.

    Use a reputable service so the links stick - I've heard varying info about how Google now counts these links (WF members will sound off I'm sure). I use MacReportMedia.com - they have the best service for the cost.
