How to Get Your Press Release Into Google News

There are a few ways you can get your PR to show up in Google news. By having your press release in Google news not only gives your site higher authority but also makes it look more professional, along with many other benefits. In this article ill discuss a few tips on how you can get your press release to show up in Google news and additional Benefits.

For those not familiar with press release promotion, it is a perfect way to headline a new product launch or any important news you have about your business or website. So if you have either of these obviously you want the word to get out for more traffic and sales. By having a well written and optimized release will not be efficient by itself. You also need to make sure you are submitting the release to authority PR websites.

By creating a well written release it is important that the PR is at least 750 words and you try to cover one single subject as covering multiple subjects' kind of defeats the whole purpose of a PR. Before you write your PR you have to decide which keyword or search term you want your release to get listed in Google for. Once you have decided the keyword it is best to use that keyword somewhere in the PR title, and as some PR websites allow hyperlinks also use that keyword as a hyperlink. Lastly you should try to have a keyword density of the word you choose to be around 2% and no more than 3%.

Moving on to which sites you should submit your PR to, there are quite a few authority sites and by submitting to these if your PR is a well written and optimized normally Google news will automatically cache your PR from that authority site and you will then see your press release in Google news. Another important thing to keep in mind is to submit your press release in the morning as it is more likely to be read in the morning. Newdesignworld.com is one press release that I have noticed gets listed in Google news quite often.

There are quite a few benefits of being listed in Google news, first your search engine rankings for the keyword that you have chosen if normally improved, even if it is temporary this will bring in a boost of traffic. Along with that depending on the amount of sites you submit your release to you get additional backlinks. Normally if you have an article listed in Google news depending on the keyword you are using you can expect a good boost in traffic for about a week, that's why a press release is a great way to promote your website or new product.
