PR and SEO: A New Symbiotic Relationship

The Adaptation and Evolution of PR and SEO

The integration of SEO into PR strategies is vital for a robust online presence. There are many compelling reasons why businesses and personal brands need to use SEO to enhance their public relations and online reputation campaigns.

 

Amplify Website Visibility through Link Building

PR and SEO go hand in hand when it comes to link building. High-quality backlinks from authoritative websites significantly enhance your website’s credibility and visibility. They signal to Google that an authoritative site trusts yours, earning you SEO benefits. It’s that straightforward. By combining compelling PR stories and content with a targeted keyword and link-building strategy, you can achieve remarkable results.

 

Boost Your SERPs Ranking

Securing a spot on the first page of search engine results pages (SERPs) is highly sought after, and strong SEO is the key to getting there. By optimizing your content and leveraging PR efforts, you can improve your website’s ranking for relevant keywords, driving more organic traffic and increasing brand awareness. Use flagship keywords to add value to your campaigns by making them more search-friendly.

 

Establish Website Authority

SEO isn’t just about keywords, it’s about showcasing authority in your niche. PR campaigns can generate media coverage and endorsements from industry experts to enhance your website’s authority on search engines. Strengthen your campaigns by aligning off-site content with relevant on-site material.

 

Elevate the Value of Your Campaigns

In today’s digital age, PR and SEO are intrinsically connected and mutually beneficial. By becoming SEO-savvy, you add substantial value to your clients, business, and customers. Incorporating SEO best practices into your PR campaigns is a sound strategy in today’s online landscape. Imagine the added value to your client if you could amplify the results of a successful campaign with SEO expertise.

 

Increase Keyword Ranking to Attract Customers 

Whether you’re selling products or services, site traffic is of paramount importance. By combining PR efforts with SEO, you can strategically optimize your content to rank for keywords that not only align with your goals, but are also likely to attract more customers and clients. This leads to more leads and ultimately new opportunities. Choosing the right keywords is the trick, and this requires a blend of SEO and PR insights.

 

Provide Deeper Insights to Clients

While PR campaigns traditionally focus on metrics like reach and media mentions, SEO opens up a whole new world of valuable insights. Incorporating SEO allows you to track metrics such as organic traffic, keyword rankings, and conversion rates. These metrics offer a more comprehensive view of your campaign’s success and help fine-tune your strategies.

 

Future-Proof Your Skills

SEO tools offer invaluable data insights. By analyzing keyword performance, click-through rates, and user behavior, PR professionals can gain a deeper understanding of their audience’s preferences and behaviors. This data informs future PR strategies and content creation.

 

Harnessing the power of SEO can supercharge campaigns, improve online visibility, and achieve better results. In an era where digital presence is paramount, embracing SEO as an integral part of a PR strategy is a savvy move that empowers your brand and ensures its continued success.

Personal Digital PR Manager or Producer? Do You Need One?

Laurie Pehar Borsh Personal Digital PR Manager

 

Do you need a personal digital PR manager or producer? Yes, today’s professionals/entrepreneurs are much more informed about Digital PR, and online reputation management much more than ever before. Thanks to the many amazing coaching, classes and tools available today.

 

These coaches/classes are fantastic and offer lots of great information and ideas. But I have come to realize that many people come away with information overload. “Where to begin, what to say, when to do all this?” Most business professionals are either too busy, overwhelmed, even too nervous to start, or stick with a personal promotional effort (on and off-line), which is where I come in.

 

Simple, and effective digital PR production and management services

 

I recently reconnected with an old friend. She is an established realtor in an affluent area of Los Angeles. She asked me about my PR business and what I was doing these days. I told her that my main focus was to provide super simple, and effective digital PR production and management services for executives and professionals. Especially on the writing and promotion of personal brands online. 

 

She chimes in: “Oh my God, you mean you actually take on the social media stuff for your clients? They don’t have to do it all by themselves? I just took at Social Media Class – and it was packed with interesting and great information… but, it MADE MY HEAD SPIN!” 

 

Hiring a personal digital PR producer is cost-effective

 

1. Here is an Executive/Professional who understands “the need” for online promotion/reputation management — to keep everything up-to-date and current. and 2. Here is an Executive/Professional who (a) does not want to even deal with this whole online networking, PR initiative stuff, because she is overwhelmed and unfamiliar with it;  (b) because she has way too much on her plate already and (c) because she hates to self promote.  She couldn’t fathom talking about herself online, but she loved the idea of allowing me to act as her “Digital Publicist.” Help her connect with potential clients/business via traditional publicity and online promotion tactics. 

 

Robust online persona (PR) production and management are a must-have for everyone IN ANY STAGE OF THE GAME.

 

Personal digital PR manager in your corner to tell your story!

 

This is the way I see it: People hire stylists, landscapers, builders and housekeepers all the time.  My business is no different. Hiring a digital PR manager to produce/manage your online (and off-line) personal PR initiative is not so much a luxury, as it is a necessity. You have to be in it to win at it, as they say.   Build an (online) audience, and continue to build that audience to stay visible.  Whether you’re constantly looking for new business, customer retention, or job placement, if you build it and keep it built, they’ll come.
