Press releases: Where online PR and SEO meet

Distribution of search engine optimised press releases can drive first page results for clients, according to one expert.

Christine O'Kelly, owner of SEO Content Solutions says the formula - which combines approaches from online PR and search engine optimisation (SEO) - works "every time".

By issuing press releases rather than articles, O'Kelly says SEO firms can allow clients to "blatantly" tout their benefits while also generating important backlinks.

However, she added a note of caution: "For a press release to truly be successful, it's critical that it be focussed around providing useful information for human readers.

"Distributing press releases that don't offer a real value to your target audience is a waste money and effort."

Last month, Mike Bradbury of Objectware said that SEO and online PR companies could maximise their profits by combining search's metric-reporting ability with PR's networking skills.
