Posted January 4th, 2007 by Merrick Lozano · 1 Comment

Search engines need your help determining the original source of a press release. Why? They often see the same press release on multiple sites and are tasked with determining which source to show in their search results.

You can help by linking to your press release on PR Leap from your company’s site.

  1. Login to PR Leap.
  2. Click News.
  3. Click on the headline of the press release you want to link to.
  4. Copy the headline, and News URL of the press release.
  5. Link to the press release on PR Leap from your website shortly after it has been released on prleap.com.
