Your dashboard has a new feature, News Groups, allowing you to group related news releases by client or project. Now only related news (headlines), set by you, will appear at the bottom of an individual news release.

Related News – Related News is an important search engine optimization tactic that helps improve your search visibility. This is why we encourage you to group related news. Releases not grouped will not benefit from this cross promotion tactic. As default, all news releases in your account are not grouped. We encourage you to spend a few minutes grouping your related news together.

Group News – On your dashboard you should see a new menu window for every news release in your account. “Group News,” indicates that news release is NOT GROUPED. To add it to a group, click on “Group News” menu and select a group. To add a group, click on “create news group” from the menu and type the name of the group and submit. Finally, select the group name and your done.

Ungroup – To remove a news release from a group, click on its group name and select the “ungroup” option. Once again “manage news groups” should be displayed, indicating this news release is not part of a group.

In the near future, we will make it possible to edit a group name and delete unwanted group names.
