Get Your New Small Business Website Off To A Good Start With A Press Release
March 13th, 2009 by Lucy Katts

You need an attention grabbing press release to generate interest in your new small business website provided by web design west midlands. An effective press release should encourage and convince your potential customers to visit your website and take action.

You can make your press release stand out by following just focussing on three aspects:

1. The headline must grab their attention and generate more interest The headline of your press release must be punchy and suggest the benefits of your service or products. Approximately only twenty per cent of people will read the rest of your press release after reading the headline, so make yours attention grabbing. It is also very important to use your main keyword in the headline, preferably near the beginning. This will increase your chances of getting your press release appropriately indexed by the search engines, particularly Google.

2. Look for an interesting angle

When launching a new small business website, stop and take a long look at your business activities and try to identify an interesting angle for your press release:

   - What is it about your company that is possibly different, perhaps even unique or exciting for your customers?

   - What makes your service or product different from your competitors?

   - Are there any topical news items or relevant trade events that you can link your press release to?

   - Make your press release read like a story capturing the imagination of your readers rather than a dry, factual account of what your business does and sells.

3. The structure must be logical

The structure is also important because press releases should be concise and to the point. Each word should serve a purpose, so cut out any waffle and edit ruthlessly. Following on after your headline you should create a subheading providing a bit more information but leaving your readers wanting more.

The first paragraph should contain all the vital information for the press release, and the rest of the text should simply expand those facts. Finally you may include a boilerplate with a short biography of your company and your contact details with the all important link to your website.

An impactive and interesting Press Release is just one of the many services offered by web design midlands.
