Not all press release distribution sites allow anchor text link. but many do. Take advantage of the one that do allow it and use your main keywords a your anchor text link pointing back to your targeted pages.

Submit your press release to quality press release sites
This is one of the most crucial parts of your work. There are hunderds of press release sites out there, but not all of them have the power to give you good results. It’s better to submit your press release to a few good press release sites, than submitting it to thunderer of low quality press release sites.

Such a sites are more likely to give you the kind of exposure you are trying to get by publishing a press release.


Writing a good press release and submitting it may not take you more than a few hours, but the impacts that it will have will last for a long long time. That’s basically it, this is how you submit an online press release.
