    47. Press Release SEO 1) Research keywords 2) Use keywords in headline, subheadline and first 250 words 3) Use a link shortener to link keywords to an SEOed landing page on your website 4) Use an original title tag and meta page description 5) Send pitches to relevant journalists and bloggers 6) Clear a free or paid newswire, if possible 7) Social bookmark pick-ups and news coverage 8) Monitor and analyze traffic and inbound referrals 47
    48. Press Release SEO: Step One Search the keyword you think may be applicable and examine the meta keywords of the top 5 results. 48
    49. Press Release SEO: Step Two If some of the keywords in the meta keywords field seem relevant, repeat step one with those newer keywords. And try running the top listed sites through Google’s External Keyword tool. If new keywords surface that seem relevant, repeat step one. 49
    50. Press Release SEO: Step Three Go to Google Trends or Insights and see which of the keywords you’re experimenting with has the most search volume. Test like terms against each other to which ones are most popular. 50
    51. Press Release SEO: Step Four Check the inbound links of the top ranked sites when you search your intended keywords using Yahoo! Site Explorer. Look to see if they are drawing rank from inbounds to their sites from high profile domains, or from .edu or .gov domains. 51
    52. Press Release SEO: Step Five Also in Yahoo Site Explorer, evaluate whether or not you think you can collect more inbounds for your press release. Ask yourself, “Is my press release more relevant than the websites currently coming up first when I search my intended keywords?” 52
    53. Press Release SEO: Step Six Narrow down your list to three keywords, picking one high volume term, one medium volume term and one low volume. If you’re choosing effective keywords, the lower the search volume, the greater the likelihood of conversions against those searches will be. 53
    54. Press Release SEO: Step Seven Use your keywords in the copy of your press release. Use them, if possible, in the headline, sub-headline and at least the first 250 words of the release, but strive for readability over repetition. If it reads like you’re keyword stuffing, you’ve overdone it. 54
    55. Press Release SEO: Step Eight Link at least one instance of each of your three keywords to the web page your trying to search engine optimize. This will a separate page from the actual press release itself, and should also be optimized for the same keywords. It cannot be duplicate content. It must be different, even if only slightly so. Hyperlink the keywords and a trackable link shortening service like www.bit.ly so you can see how many times they keywords get clicked, and whether or not people were referred to your target web page from your press release, which could wind getting picked and posted to other websites. 55
    56. Press Release SEO: Step Nine Write an original title tag and meta page description striving to tease readers to click on it if it shows up on search engine page results. Give them to your webmaster for use when posting the release online. You need to SEO the webpage you’re optimizing as well. 56

It surfaces out-of-the-box ideas -- the ideas that may seem absurd at first hearing but that create breakthroughs.“ -Larry Bossidy, CEO, Honeywell 154
