According to Qamar Zaman, CEO of Submit 123 PR the task is best achieved through the use of an online press release distribution platform that has been approved as a Google News provider.

1. How Do You Submit a Press Release to Google?
Submit 123 PR answers an age-old question that many businesses want to know.
Google News is a leading media platform that operates under the expressed mission of organizing
news from across the globe and providing access to it for users “while providing the best possible
experience for those seeking useful and timely news information,” as stated on the company’s
website. The news aggregator monitors a reported 4,500 news sources worldwide, picking up
timely news from these resources.
Because of Google’s prominence it is a goal of many businesses to see their press releases
disseminated through the tech king’s news aggregator. In fact, one of the most common questions
that many business marketers have today is how can they get press releases submitted to Google
and included on the list of news items shared to a vast audience.
According to Qamar Zaman, CEO of Submit 123 PR the task is best achieved through the use of an
online press release distribution platform that has been approved as a Google News provider. Says
Zaman, “Google has strict guidelines for the type of news content it will distribute; therefore, with

Zaman further notes the importance of ensuring that one’s press releases meets Google’s
exceptional quality standards even when submitting them through Google approved press release
distributors stating “services like Submit 123 PR gained acceptance because they adhere strictly to
Google’s quality standards, so if a press release is of poor quality it will not be deemed acceptable
for submission.”
Alternatives to getting a press release noticed and disseminated in Google News include a business
attempting to get its website approved for Google News inclusion. However, because most business
sites are not news sources this option is not a viable one for many. Nevertheless, it doesn’t hurt to
stay abreast of the guidelines for inclusion for a better understanding of how to prep one’s press
release for online distribution through a chosen service.
Google News Guidelines
Google outlines five general guidelines on its website for sites that are included in the Google
News platform. These are:
 News Content - Included sites are expected to offer timely reporting on matters that the Google
News audience would find relevant and appealing.
 Authority - Sites should demonstrate that they are authoritative and offer expertise.
 Journalistic Standards - Says Google “Original reporting and honest attribution are longstanding
journalistic values. If your site publishes aggregated content, you will need to separate it from your
original work, or restrict our access to those aggregated articles via your robots.txt file.”
 Readability - Articles should be clearly written and inspected for grammar and spelling mistakes in
addition to having limited ad and auto video distractions.
 Accountability - News sites that contain biographies of authors and clear, accurate contact
information is preferred.
