Press Releases

Hi Guys,
We are looking to issue a press release on PRWEB.com , But after Google's announcements : Links in press releases should use nofollow ...we became a bit unsure....Would anyone be able to tell us how to do press release on PRWEB.com - CORRECTLY...

thanks a lot

I too would like to know what people's opinions are with press release sites like prweb.  I have a competitor that has a high authority dofollow link via prweb, and it seems to have worked for them.

I guess the risk is whilst a prweb link may be good, you don't know which spammy sites will pick up that press release and republish it on their site.

But, yeh, would also love to hear what people have to say on this.

Recent discussion in SERountable here . The opinion is that all links in press releases should be no followed.

I don’t see much problem with PR Web other then the fact that you have to be careful about adding links in the Press Release. Actually you only should use PR Web when you want masses to update about your product or service but for SEO purposes it’s of ZERO value from now!

If you think adding a link in the PR is important for visitors then make it no follow otherwise just eliminate the link and let people know about the update you have!

Remember: Use it for users not for Search Engines!

Hi Moosa,

thank you for the good answer...
You said - Use it for users not for Search Engines!

Then what type of links would you use for search engines...
