Fun Fact: PRNews.io Has a Simple (Dare we say, Intuitive) Six-step Process to Run GEO, PR and Link Building at Scale
PRNews makes it very easy to get published online quickly, and in a manner that brings your best foot forward. With a simple, six-step process, you can get up and running in no time.
Here’s how it works:
- Create an account to view available media outlets — The workflow starts with account creation, which gives users access to the platform’s catalog of media outlets. This creates a controlled starting point where users can browse real publishing opportunities instead of relying on mass distribution.
- Filter outlets based on campaign criteria — Users can narrow the catalog according to the type of content they want to publish, the media outlets they want to target, pricing, performance metrics, publishing conditions, and audience relevance. This helps keep campaigns focused on publications that actually fit the brand or campaign goal.
- Review publishing conditions before buying — Before committing to a placement, users can check the details of each outlet. This includes costs, outlet performance, content requirements, publishing rules, and any other conditions that may affect the placement.
- Add extras and complete the purchase — Once the right outlet is selected, users can add any available extras and finalize the purchase. This keeps the buying process straightforward while still allowing room for campaign customization.
- Submit content to the selected outlets — After purchase, users submit their content for publication. The platform then helps move the placement through the publishing process, reducing the manual coordination usually required in PR and link-building campaigns.
- And, you’re done! The process is designed for speed, with an average turnaround time of one to two days for placements. If a placement gets delayed or stuck, support is available to help resolve the issue.
