      Rules to follow:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Consistent, Targeted Messaging<\/h4>\n

      The most important rule for writing a press release is to make sure that it’s centered on\u00a0a single, newsworthy topic<\/strong>\u00a0that’s important to your target audiences.<\/p>\n

      Write a Clear, Concise Headline<\/h4>\n

      Search engines rely heavily on page titles to determine ranking, and your press release’s headline is its page title. For proper indexing by news sites, your headline should be\u00a0between 2 and 22 words<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

      Use Subheadlines<\/h4>\n

      While subheads are not included in page title tags, they are a good place to\u00a0incorporate additional keywords<\/strong>\u00a0that are not in your headline.<\/p>\n

      Add Meaningful Links<\/h4>\n

      Use links in your release to direct your audiences to relevant additional content: Backgrounders and FAQs for reporters and analysts, product purchase pages and reviews for customers, campaign-specific landing pages, and so on.<\/p>\n

      Use Text Formatting for Emphasis<\/h4>\n

      Bold, italic, underlined and bulleted text help\u00a0emphasize key points<\/strong>\u00a0in your release, break up your content into easily digestible sections and provide visual cues for skimmers to quickly pick up the gist of your news.<\/p>\n

      Include Your Company Logo<\/h4>\n

      Build recognition<\/strong>\u00a0by including your logo at the top of your release. It’s free with any Business Wire circuit. Your logo is likely to be the first image people find when searching for your brand or organization name.<\/p>\n

      Include Complete Contact Information<\/h4>\n

      Make sure to provide up-to-date phone numbers and e-mail addresses; reporters tell us that omitting these is one of their main pet peeves.\u00a0Always include a way for media to follow up<\/strong>\u00a0with any questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
