How to use social media and SEO so your press release gets the job done

(PR NewsChannel) / June 21, 2012 / ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.

PRSA SEO Workshop

PRSA Tampa Bay is hosting a workshop on how to write press releases for maximum social media exposure and search engine optimization (SEO). Located at the St. Pete Hilton Bayfront, the June 21 workshop will feature an interactive, how-to session led by Glenn Selig of PR NewsChannel. The workshop is part of the PRSA 2012 Sunshine District conference.

During this one-hour workshop attendees learned how to write press releases for search engine optimization (SEO) and various social media. Press releases are not for journalists any more, said Glenn Selig, founder of PR NewsChannel. Theyre a great way to reach consumers and your potential clients.

Workshop attendees also participated in an interactive session, teaching them how to identify key words, twitterfy their press releases, and connect with consumers through social media.

I feel confident knowing that I am armed with the SEO tools to hit the ground running, said Sally Johnson,workshop attendee.

Incorporating SEO into press releases increases visibility, attracts customers, potential partners and improves website click numbers. These kinds of SEO pre-conference workshops offer invaluable training for maximizing press release effectiveness. Writing press releases with SEO in mind is becoming a core skill set for public relations professionals industry-wide. The PRSA SEO workshop is one of many held during the #Sunshine2012 Conference in Tampa/St. Petersburg.

Search Exchange 2012: SEO, social media, and more

Summary: Search Exchange is an Internet marketing conference you dont want to miss! Mark your calendars, because its coming up soon.

If youre an Internet marketer, then youre going to want to mark your calendar for July 23-25. For the third year in a row, Search Exchange will be taking place right here in Charlotte, NC. This year, there will be speakers from Microsoft and Google, as well as a whole slew of industry heavyweights, such as Wil Reynolds, Neal Rodriguez, Jim Boykin, Steve Plunkett, and many more.

Check out the following excerpt from Wil Reynoldss presentation last year regarding link-building:

Besides the fact that the conference is held in my home town, one of the reasons I prefer it over others is because of the intimate setting its held in. The primary benefit of that is the openness of dialogue that transpires and the juicy bits of info you get from it. For instance, last year, Rand Fishkin shared a really great tip about getting videos to rank in Google but he asked the room to promise not to tweet about it (and we didnt). In that regard, Search Exchange is somewhat akin to a well-kept secret, but I dont think thats going to last much longer.

If youd like to attend, then head on over to the Search Exchange Web site where you can register. Ticket prices are as follows:

3-day event ticket: $500 1-day event ticket: $250

As for the agenda, here are the topics that will be covered each day (click to see who will be speaking on each day):

Day 1: SEO Day 2: Social Media Day 3: Analytics and PPC

And last of note, yours truly will be presenting this year (day 1, in the 10:00-10:45AM time slot)! The kind folks running Search Exchange were gracious enough to allow me to discuss a topic that should blow the minds of those attending. If youve kept up with any of my past coverage, in relation to the types of information Im capable of digging up with search engines, then you have at least some idea of what Ill be discussing. If not, however, then prepare to be shown a completely different side of Google, Bing, and the world of search in general.

Proper SEO and the Robots.txt File

When it comes to SEO, most people understand that a website must have content, "search engine friendly" site architecture/HTML, and meta data (title tags andmeta descriptions).

Another meta element, if implemented incorrectly, that can also trip up websites is robots.txt.I was recently reminded of this while reviewing the website of a large company that had spent considerable money on building a mobile version of their website, on a sub-directory. Thats fine, but having a disallow statement in their robots.txt file meant that the website wasnt accessible to search engines (Disallow: /mobile/)

Lets review how to properly implement robots.txt to avoid search ranking problems and damaging your business, as well as how to correctly disallow search engine crawling.

Simply put, if you go to domain.com/robots.txt, you should see a list of directories of the website that the site owner is asking the search engines to "skip" (or "disallow"). However, if you arent careful when editing a robots.txt file, you could be putting information in your robots.txt file that could really hurt your business.

There's tons of information about the robots.txt file available at the Web Robots Pages, including the proper usage of the disallow feature, and blocking "bad bots" from indexing your website.

The general rule of thumb is to make sure a robots.txt file exists at the root of your domain (e.g., domain.com/robots.txt). To exclude all robots from indexing part of your website, your robots.txt file would look something like this:

User-agent: * Disallow: /cgi-bin/ Disallow: /tmp/ Disallow: /junk/

The above syntax would tell all robots not to index the /cgi-bin/, the /tmp/, and the /junk/ directories on your website.

In the past, I reviewed a website that had a good amount of content and several high quality backlinks. However, the website had virtually no presence in the search engine results pages (SERPs).

What happened? Penalty? Well, no. The site's owner had included a disallow to "/". They were telling the search engine robots not to crawl any part of the website.
