      I just created my first press release at prlog.org using the free account, which lets you have one outgoing followed link.

      Question:  Should I link to my press releases from my web site?  I made the mistake of doing link exchanges in the past, and worried Google would detect it as a link exchange.  It would be nice to link to the press releases on my site while still getting the benefits of having an incoming link from a site with PR 6.

      Is prlog.org a good site for press releases?  Is there another one you recommend that is free or inexpensive?  Is there any benefits to using multiple press release sites, with different content on each site?

      Thanks!!!

        Cameron, I link to my press releases from other navigation than the home page mainly because I believe the content on the home page is to get the visitor interested to go deeper into the site. I don't think it's bad to link to them from the home page but I think you will see the value of the link isn't that much greater than linking to it from a subsequent page.

          Cameron, I always recommend businesses link to their press releases. Doing so provides value in different ways. First, if there are no links and no references to it, it basically has no value, Second, you get a little bit of third party validation from it. Third, you can get visitors from it and brand recognition. I know of releases that we published in 2005 that still get hundreds or thousands of visitors each month, because they have incoming links. Don't base all your decisions on what immediate link juice you might get from an action you take, because it may hurt you some time in the future. And yes, prlog is good. I have some I will send there this week.

            Thanks for the reply.  Has some very good info on press releases.    My only question is, is it a good idea for me to link to the press releases on my home page? Is it standard for businesses to link to the press releases, or do they just let clients find the press releases on Google.

            Thanks again.

              Hi Cameron, A press release will help your website gain awareness in your industry. It is a fantastic way to announce a grand opening of a new business, a large sale or promotion, a unique tool, feature, movie file, content or other resource.

              Submitting the press release help the social media for business online press release distribution and social networking are powerful marketing tools but combined they are an unstoppable force for instant online exposure.

              For more details see the below advantages of press release:

              Advantages: They are a fast, free, easy, way to get your message and your company name all over the internet. Some of them are fairly high page rank which passes along some good link juice. I've gotten my clients 6 of the top 10 Google listings on the front page of google, for the keywords we selected, using free press release sites. (There's never a guarantee of this, of course; Google does what Google wants.)

              Yes prlog.org is good site for press release.For more details for the press release websites see the link below:

                RSS feed links

                Is this an RSS feed link? How was this page generated? http://blog.moregoodfoundation.org/category/technology/feed What causes it to show up as a backlink in open site explorer? And how would you go about removing these links? Lots of questions there 🙂 Thank you.

                Linking to sites that link to porn or casinos, my site getting penalized?

                I have some link exchanges with some sites to get web traffic but when i ran the bad neighborhood link checker, i found that one site links to some casinos and another site has one link to a porn site.  Is this getting me penalized?  should i remove the links to these sites? Thanks, Ron

                Link Exchange

                Hi everyone, I just started working for a client in a new niche. After reviewing the backlink profiles of his competitors I can see that the top sites are using a ton of link exchanges. They are from really spammy sites too. The kind that will link to anyone that provides a link back. Anyone else seeing much of this?

If they they still do,  Which top 10 free and paid site would you recommend? What is the up-to-date link building method would you recommend? Thank you very much!

                I have a few domains that I'm going to use for link building, will the link juice from the sub domains transfer to the main domain?
