The ‘Newsworthy’ Test For Online Press Releases
An online press release is traditionally intended for the press. That means news. Although the possibilities for an online press release go well beyond the traditional news makers, news is still central to online press releases. For your press release to be considered news, it needs to contain something newsworthy. Newsworthy events happen to a business more often than you might think, but it often takes a fair bit of thinking before the average business event can be turned into something newsworthy. The help of a professional can be extremely useful when you're looking for a newsworthy angle for your online press release, and you can talk to us at Click Consult. The writing of a press release also needs to take on the news style. This means answering the five W's - the what, where, who, when and why, in the early stages of the press release, and avoiding any sort of language that seems like advertising. There are a few tests you can put your online press release under to ensure that you're taking the right approach. The first is to read a series of news articles from the publications to which you will be submitting the press release. If the writing style of your internet marketing press release is similar, you're probably on the right track. The second is to hand the press release over to a colleague who is unconnected with your business and can give an honest opinion whether they think it works. Their honest opinion is valuable, as it's likely to resemble the opinion of the average internet user.

Online press releases are easy to handle
One good thing about an online press release is that it is very easy to handle in the sense that you have enough leg room to play around with it so that it says exactly what you want it to say. This easy to handle method includes an ability to blend colours, if appropriate to your press release. It is also important to note that you can go beyond colours and add animation to an online press release, something which cannot be achieved when working with a traditional print advert, where there is very little - if any - control. Distribution is easier with online press releases Distribution of online press releases is light years ahead of the traditional print newspaper press release, as it has to go through a printing process while with the electronic press release is done at the click of a button. It is also important to note that online press releases can be directed to a vast number of intended recipients. This is not the case when dealing with other types of press releases which have to follow the normal newspaper procedures and may take some time before it reaches its destination. Reaching an audience faster gives you an edge over your competitors. It is what we at Click Consult always emphasise. You should make sure that a press release gives you an edge over the competitors. It is also important to note that having online press releases also allows your organisation to have some links which will also increase traffic as many people would follow the links.
