Press Releases
-
Has anyone used PRWeb for press releases? Especially their basic plan. The link for the site itself is very valuable but I am more concerned about their distribution network. Any success with this site or any other? Thanks

Thanks for reply. I did not have a chance to got to MozCon. What topics were most popular?
I haven't used Press Releases in my SEO that is why I am kind of questioning that method.

I used RPWeb years ago with a prior company, and it seemed to be of benefit. That being said, I did not use the service extensively nor for any significant duration of time, so I cannot make a strong endorsement.
The only other thing that I can share is that this topic did come up in a few conversations I was involved in at MozCon, and the general sentiment seemed to be that PRWeb is at the very least of reasonable value. The subject just wasn't discussed exhaustively.
I'm sorry I can't offer more specifics, but hopefully someone more knowledgeable can add to this thread. I'm looking to incorporate press releases into my SEO startegy ASAP and would appreciate any insight.

Press Releases - Local NY Law Firm
I have a client with a simple bankruptcy website. If I were to write a press for him using prweb or prnewswire, what are the types of topics I can write about that will allow the content to be picked up by newsoutlets and potential go viral? Also, should I have multiple anchor texts linking back to my client's website in the press release or just one? Are there other ways to get credit for the press release outside of creating anchor texts int he write-up itself?

Duplicate Free Press Release Submission
I know that free press release sites don't always do the best job at getting ones relates out there, but I had a thought. What if I were to submit the same release to say, ten free press release sites? Would that it at least give me ten backlinks from those sites alone? They'd be good backlinks since I'll be able to have the desired anchor text. Is that just another version of article spinning, or is it a good strategy for getting the release out there as much as possible? I'd value any of your opinions.

Formatting of Links in Direct Press Releases
I have been looking around but not found any great suggestions. If we send out a direct press release to a journalist, eg to their email address, what is the best format to send it in (eg word, pdf, rtf, html)? Also, if it was to be sent out as a pdf or word doc, is there a good way to put links in there to increase the chance of them putting a keyword link in the article if it was to be published on their site? Would a hyperlink in there be confusing or is that ok?

Video on press releases
Can I use the same video (hosted on my website, static URL) for 2 completely unique press releases/articles)? Would this make it less unique although the subject on those to press releases would fall into the same category (travel) but will have different content?
