Does anyone have any good advice about creating press releases? This is something I've not tried yet, but I am thinking about it.

I feel like a total newb by asking this (

), but who do I submit them to? Is it free? Are there PR companies that are good to work with?

Actually, you can do it on your own...write it straightforwardly. It should be worthy for someone to read on your press release and the information that you write is intended for the audience.

Yeah you can do it by yourself just make sure that everything you put on your press release is all true. Here's a sample press release format http://www.mediacollege.com/journali...se/format.html

Thanks everyone - good information. I'm not much of a writer, but I'm think I'm going to give it a shot and see what happens.

press releases are a great way to make people know if you have a new site, a new product or service, or there has been changes made for your site. press releases are one of the cheap ways to advertise, well, what you can add to that is also consider sending some pieces to magazines or publishing houses, there are some magazines who posts interesting and quality PR article.s

Press release can be tough to do but you can always have your first time. You can get the hang out of it in the long run.

certainly press release is a good way to promote links but these are highly profession sites and the contents submitted should be very professional and original. If you try to give fake information, you may get banned or you content will not approve

So follow instructions and work patiently.

Press release is work on those who have product and service to promote.You need to write something about it.

**chrishirst** · 09-13-2009, 07:38 PM

Actually press releases are for if you have something useful or interesting to tell people about.

Once you start using them to tell everybody about what you had for lunch yesterday they lose any effectivness they had as they become just another piece of useless information to waste time reading.

Agreed. People seem to get Press Release and Blogs mixed up (or so I've noticed).

You don't need to hire someone. Writing press releases is easy. You just need to make it catchy. A PR is supposed to call attention.

**andrew_smith** · 09-30-2009, 06:47 AM

Use think link to see how to write a press release, http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Press-Release and find out the sources of press release submission from google to submit it.

**junosama** · 10-04-2009, 02:28 AM

I usually submit to like 10-20 free press release sites to get a few backlinks to help jump start a site. If you have the money submitting to one paid site can help too.

**janiels** · 10-05-2009, 05:46 AM

if you are not much of a writer then it may be hard to acquire traffic from these sites, try to hire someone to write for you so what you will need to do is submit them to PR directories..

**SecureSearch** · 10-07-2009, 10:48 PM

Write them up and submit them! I use them on a regular basis, many getting listed on Google...well worth the links!

**hasmat** · 10-12-2009, 06:30 AM

Press release submission after every post is effective. but must have to be well written.
