Keeping up with digital PR

Digital PR over the years has changed and as Google’s algorithm changes and updates happen it evolves very quickly. Recent years have seen the biggest shift in link building activity and it can be overwhelming. 

Our team here at Distinctly stays on the pulse of digital PR with each change and update and can provide detailed case studies around how different tactics work for different markets and how to find the right strategy for you.

Our digital PR training

Our Digital PR training aims to equipt you with advanced strategies in link building tactics and media list-building to take your campaigns to the next level. 

Link building tactics

Learning about an array of link building tactics will enable you to help to improve your website’s credibility, visibility, and search engine rankings. There are several different ways to build links, and our team will talk you through the relevant avenues you can go down to yield the best results for your business. 

How digital PR works with an SEO strategy

Digital PR and SEO often work hand-in-hand, so gaining knowledge of how these services intertwine to deliver the results you want your business to see is a crucial part of our training. 

Backlink profile analysis and reporting

Backlink profile analysis and reporting will help you identify strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improving your website’s SEO and overall online visibility.

Media list building

Learning to identify key journalists and influencers to target for coverage is a hugely important part of any Digital PR campaign. It ensures effective communication and outreach strategies and, most importantly of all, will enable you to identify more opportunities to achieve coverage.

Press release writing 

Press release writing will teach you how to communicate news and updates to the media and public in an effective way to increase the likelihood of generating high-quality coverage.

Link building Open Tabbed Content

Outside of the larger data-led campaigns, we can offer insight and advice around building links through various avenues, whether that is link reclamation, outreaching existing content or using journalist tools such as HARO and Response Source.

Competitor research Open Tabbed Content

With digital PR, sometimes the hardest part can be knowing where to start. We can instruct you how to complete an in-depth analysis of how your competitors are performing, how to close the gap and which strategy is best suited to achieve your business goals.

Digital PR campaigns Open Tabbed Content

There is a lot to dissect with digital PR campaigns from ideation and production through to writing press materials, finding the right journalists and outreaching. Ideation can often be the biggest hurdle but there are techniques, resources and tools available to help this process become smoother and more aligned with the link building targets you have set. 

Understanding how to communicate with journalists is a large part of this, even down to how you structure and write press releases. Are you using the right language? Are you targeting the right people? Are you sending press releases at the right time? These are all things to be considered when beginning outreach.

Our digital PR training

Ideation

Ideation is the fun part of digital PR campaigns but it can feel daunting at times and without structure, brainstorms can veer off on a tangent or you can lose focus. Our training will highlight different ways you can ideate, how to structure a good idea and ultimately, what makes a good idea.

Press releases and pitches

A large part of digital PR is learning how to communicate with journalists and understanding how to convert into links. This includes the language you use, the style and structure of press releases and even how to send images and in what format. We have comprehensive guides that can instruct on how to get the best results when outreaching at a small or large scale.

Outreach

Once you have your campaign produced and your press materials ready, the next step is to outreach and convert into the links you need. Promotion of digital PR campaigns is the most process-driven part of the activity but there are ways where you could improve your output. While it can seem to be a low-return activity in a lot of ways, it is important to improve your offering to increase conversions and nurture those new conversations and relationships with clients. Advice on tools that make outreach simpler, when to send press releases and how to structure follow-ups is something we can offer.
