Digital PR, a facet of digital marketing, involves promoting businesses by securing the publication of content featuring them or created by them through collaborations with journalists, bloggers, and influencers.
If your business lacks widespread recognition, aims to expand its market share, or is a burgeoning entity with noteworthy stories to share, digital PR is essential. Functioning as digital press relations, it focuses on building online press relationships.
In contrast to traditional PR, which can be costly, ambiguous, and challenging to measure, digital PR offers affordability and accessibility to a broader audience.
While traditional PR agencies engage with major media organizations like The Sun and The Mirror, digital PR agencies, including ours, collaborate with a diverse array of internet-based websites, ranging from renowned outlets like The Guardian to niche platforms. With an extensive database of contacts, we can pinpoint the ideal website and angle for your business.
Digital PR extends beyond a select range of websites. Platforms relevant to your business’s industry are often more crucial than generic sites, as they not only boost Google rankings but also reach the target audience. For instance, a business unveiling heavy-duty drills may find more success on construction industry websites than on general news sites like The Independent or MSNBC.
Similarly, a startup launching a new investment app might gain more traction by featuring on smaller personal investment blogs, such as Monevator, with a moderately-sized but highly-engaged audience, rather than a large tech news website.
Digital PR can also encompass collaborations with influential figures on social media, commonly known as influencer marketing.
