Use Press Releases to Build Permanent Web Traffic

How to use Press Releases to *PERMANENTLY* Establish Your Presence Online and Get Free Visitors To Your Site!

If you have a new website, blog or an affiliate offer it is probably not found in the major search engines like Google, Bing, etc., therefore you are not getting the traffic you need.

But you can change this – almost immediately!

Getting your website site linked to in the search engines is one great way to start getting FREE traffic and visitors.

The fastest way I have found to give search engines what they want and get your site noticed is to submit a press release.

The main reason that press releases work so well is because you are providing the search engines with what they are really looking for – original content, information, stories, etc.

A press release is simply a short story that announces your website to the world on a popular press release network.

All you need to do is write something up like a small news story about your site and submit it to some of the big press release websites such as:

PRWeb

PRNewsWire

eReleases

A good mindset to be in while creating a press release is to think of it as a testimonial. Explain about the power of the product and use specific examples on how it has been a benefit to you. You can also throw in some details on how the business has benefited you and why you think it is a must for everyone.

Be sure to use specific examples, because social proof is the most important validation. Always leave your readers wanting more and the only way they can find out more info is to click on your capture page link.  After all, that’s the end goal from all advertisements, is to have them enter their information on your ResponseMagic capture form.

Another great way to find specific press release submission services is to do a web search for “free press releases”.

Once you have a press release created and ready to submit, find 3 to 5 submission services to submit it to. Submit the same press release to all of them. This will ensure that you’ll get your information seen in a natural search.

Don’t write an article that’s more than a page and a half long, or more than about 800 words. Keep your lines short and your paragraphs to no more than four sentences long. No one reads on the Internet, they just skim, so keeping your lines and paragraphs short will keep them reading and not skimming.

See the example of a press release below to get an idea of how to create one.

DO NOT pay for these services! By submitting your article to multiple services you get almost the same results for free. Don’t submit to more than 5 with the same article.

The best way to get the most out of press release marketing is to write a new one every few days and submit it to 3 or 5 submissions services. Keep in mind that more is not better. Only submit one to several submission services, and then move onto your next press release.

Over time your press releases will build up and the traffic will start to come. But you must be consistent and submit press releases on a regular basis.

Some of the resources above will ask you to pay or contribute a dollar amount to get better submission. It is not necessary. You can simply put in “$0″ or choose their free option.

You may need to sign up to get a free account with the services in order to submit your work.

TIP: For good results submit at least one new press release every month. For great results submit at least one new press release every week!
