Press Releases – Social Media – and News Sources

Where do news organizations, editors and writers find the information for their news stories these days? The Internet. There is a lot less leg-work in journalism these days. The Internet provides them with resources that were not possible just a few years ago.

Another impact the Internet has had on offline newspapers and magazines is that it has cut into their profits and they do not have the financial resources they once had.

That means they have to use the Internet to find more sources, opinions and information to add to their news stories.

A lot of people don’t know whether to use blogging, article marketing or press releases to get their information out there so publishers and news organizations and others will help spread the word.

Press Release or Article? Which is right for me? A lot of our clients ask this question. It depends on what you want to achieve. If you are trying to build link popularity, then Article Marketing is the right choice for you.

If you have an event coming up, a new product or project announcement, a new website opening soon, or other newsworthy item to announce, then press releases are the best way to get exposure. A Press release must be news for it to be an effective way to drive traffic to your website.

This video shows how news writers, editors and publishers get their information.

Are Press Releases Like Articles?

Is press release writing like article writing? No. They’re really not the same thing.

The differences between article marketing and press release distribution are striking. Savvy marketers use both. Here is a comparative look at article marketing versus press release distribution:


Article Marketing

  • Article marketing is a long-term strategy
  • You submit articles to article directories so that webmasters and e-zine/newsletter publishers can find them and publish them
  • Article marketing is done through articles written in your own voice
  • Not a sales pitch
  • Articles work better by emplacing your self-promotional information in a bio
  • You do not promote yourself in the body of the article, except in special situations
  • Article marketing is best done as an ongoing strategy


Press Releases

  • Press release writing is more like news writing, not personal like article marketing
  • There is no bio section in a press release
  • The specific purpose of a press release is to promote yourself or your business
  • A press release is a one-time promotional event
  • The press release audience are members of the media within your niche
  • Press release distribution can include audio, video, and multimedia presentations
  • While press releases remain in search engine indexes long term, they are better suited for short-term promotions

I hope this highlights the difference between press release writing and article marketing and shows you how they differ and how you can benefit from each.

Press Releases 101

Of course good copywriting is essential to a press release. Most press releases I see submitted aren’t newsworthy at all however. people are using press release distribution to send out articles. They have article marketing and press releases all mixed up.

I read press releases that sound like sales letters all the time. Pure self-promotion is not a press release at all. it’s a sales letter sent out through a press release distribution center.

People who see these know the difference. news agencies who could be printing or redistributing your press release to a wider audience can see the difference at a glance.

If you do not know how to write news, you do not know how to write a press release. Unfortunately, many of the people on the web who offer to write press releases for money don’t really know how to write press releases. They know you don’t know the difference between a press release and an article or sales letter either, so they get away with charging money for the service.

Go to any press release website. read the press releases. You’ll see more than 50% are self-promotion or just articles. If it doesn’t read like something you would read in a newspaper, it isn’t a press release.

You can do a press release in the first person or from the company perspective, but you have to be announcing something that is newsworthy. Someting new happening. Something that people will want to know about. A merger, an aquisition, a partnership, a new website launched, (Can only be done once!), a new blog launched, are all things that can be newsworthy and must be presented as a news item, not as a “Come Visit MY Website Please!” article.

Press releases do even better if written as a reporter would write about your announcement. The Reporter, (press release writer), can even interview you and others at your company for quotes to use in the press release.

People are hungry for news. A press release should only be distributed if there is news to announce. Yes you want to optimize your press release for the search engines but seo is not the number one purpose for distributing a press release. Announcing something newsworthy is the first reason. You only optimize it because it is being distributed on the web and that is the secondary purpose for the press release, not the first.

If you want good results for the money you spend on a press release, do them sparingly and only when you have something newsworthy to announce. You’ll get more bang for your buck, more traffic, more people reading about you, and you’ll make back your investment every time.
