Press Release Secrets: Use Search Engine Optimization (SEO) For The Best Press Release Results Press Release Secrets: Use Search Engine Optimization (SEO) For The Best Press Release Results Forth thing for best practices is using search engine optimization, SEO. If your press release is intended for online publication, research what the readers of that particular publication be looking for. Have a good read through the articles, what’s or what’s on there and so on. Make sure that you include at least 1 powerful keyword or keyword phrase in the headline, and in the body copy. You must always do that. That will work wonders for SEO. Google and so on will pick that up, because they’ll be searching for your keywords. Make sure you do that. Make sure it’s in your headline and in the body text as well. The fifth of the seven best practice is include 2 quotes. This goes back probably 150 years.

We’ve also managed to say that with this story about this killer eel in the pool isn’t true or it’s this minor thing. We’ve also got a sales thing. 11 varieties of goldfish in our swimming pool. All right? Silly example, but sometimes silly examples work to show you … Just to get your brains thinking about this. Sixth of the seventh best practice is embedding a video or uploading a photo. Don’t actually embed the video, let me just stress that. By all means, a link to it, but don’t embed it in emails. That thing just drives us mad.
