Some European countries are more familiar with digital PR than others, and this can influence the strategy used to gain coverage. The team at Distinctly have expertise in outreaching to various markets and finding the most suitable approach. 

Where digital PR isn’t as prominent, there is a great emphasis on the value added for journalists. In these circumstances, digital PR goes beyond link building as we look to harness engagement, brand awareness, and meaningful conversations within your sector.

Are you looking to build stronger authority of your international websites? Open Tabbed Content

Relevancy is the key when building authority and boosting online visibility. High quality coverage not only means publications with high domain ratings but also relevancy. 

Our integrity is key in how we select our target sites, choose what campaign ideas are relevant for a client and how we create media lists. Ensuring market-specific variety is at the heart of how we build our strategies.

These links and earned coverage will see a healthy link profile leading to great organic visibility and rankings.

Does your business have multiple priority markets? Open Tabbed Content

For businesses that cross borders, a combined digital PR strategy targeting all priority markets is the solution. Implementing universal strategies into specific campaigns and link building activity designed for each individual market will ensure maximum results and global exposure. 

We work alongside your international teams to align goals, target correctly and building visibility where needed.

Are you looking to build visibility in a new market? Open Tabbed Content

Digital PR is essential when expanding into a new, international market. Digital PR can assist with building brand awareness and anticipation while relevant top-tier coverage will build authority in the new market. This approach improves your online visibility and rankings, placing you where you need to be for your target demographic. 

We can help with the launch of a new product or service abroad by framing relevant stories, campaigns, and ideas around your business to build anticipation and excitement in your target market.

Don’t have the budget to do large scale campaigns? Open Tabbed Content

Digital PR is scalable to suit your business needs and objectives, as well as budget. The team at Distinctly will conduct various audits to understand what strategy would be the best fit to achieve your goals, taking into account different forms of link building.

If large campaigns do not fit within your budget, the Distinctly team have experience in achieving online visibility through the promotion of existing content and reactive PR.

Our international Digital PR Service

Our international digital PR services focus on increasing brand awareness and online visibility across international markets through thorough competitor analysis and developed campaigns. We prioritise addressing obstacles to enhance your online presence and deliver tangible improvements and ROI.

Competitor research

Competitor research is crucial for international digital PR as it helps identify market trends, target audience preferences, and strategies used by competitors to stay ahead in the global market. This information is essential for creating effective PR campaigns and staying competitive.

Reactive digital PR

Reactive digital PR allows brands to respond quickly to news updates, engage with audiences in real time, and remain at the forefront of industry discussions.  

Digital PR Campaigns

Digital PR campaigns are essential for international reach as they help businesses connect with global audiences, build brand awareness, and drive engagement. They enable companies to adapt their messaging to different cultures and languages, ultimately increasing their visibility and credibility on a global scale.

Outreachable content audit

An outreachable content audit is crucial for international digital PR as it allows our team to identify relevant content you already have on-site which could be used to engage with target audiences and utilised for further reactive opportunities. This approach ensures that reactive press releases and expert comments are turned around quickly and effectively. 

Thought leadership

Thought leadership is crucial in international digital PR as it establishes credibility, builds trust, and positions a brand as experts in their field.

Having agreed upon a strategy, you can sit back and let us do the work: we create material, handle media relations and deliver headlines and links.

Frequently asked questions about international digital PR

What are the benefits of an international PR agency?

Digital PR is a service that builds links and coverage to your site from online publications building authority and increasing organic rankings. However, while digital PR and SEO go hand in hand, not all the benefits of digital PR are SEO related. Links help to build brand awareness, reach your target audience, establish trust and authority, even becoming a go-to for journalists, providing content to share on social media and achieve greater social media engagement.

What are the benefits of exposure in multiple markets?

Quality is essential when building links and recent Google updates have highlighted this more than ever. Topical relevancy is a strong indicator that sees growth in online visibility positioning your business higher in rankings and more efficiently for localised searches. Gaining coverage in different markets can also help build brand awareness and exposure or even launch a new product offering in a new location. 

How do you overcome language and cultural differences?

The strategy for international link building has to be inclusive of all techniques with a focus on the bigger picture. This goes beyond link building, as digital PR professionals can harness authentic engagement, fortify brand awareness and drive meaningful conversions. This approach means outreach and concepts can be tailored to suit the country and even region being outreached to to maximise results.

How do you adapt strategies based on markets?

Our team of experts have an in-depth knowledge of how journalists receive and react to digital PR professionals and the best way to communicate and pitch stories. Bespoke media lists and press releases for each client and campaign ensures that the correct strategy is in place for the audience targeted.

 

Is media coverage and links guaranteed?

As much as we would love to guarantee links and coverage, it isn’t possible as all coverage is earned rather than paid. We do, however, commit to treating every client’s budget as our own and constantly strategising and pivoting to achieve the best results possible.
