    FYI
    Press release is a written or recorded communication directed at members of the news media for the purpose of announcing something claimed as having news value.

    Article marketing is a type of advertising in which businesses write short articles related to their respective industry.

    And you're advisable to only use trustable third party press release to announce your site or product.

    There is a big difference between an article and a press release and how we write them depends a lot on your goals, both for your business and for the article or press release.

    A press release is generally used to create short-term buzz for a particular event or promote a certain aspect of a business for a specific purpose. Articles are simply information pieces that you use to market your business through distribution to various article marketing directories.

    A press release is an article that sounds newsworthy about your website / business. And there is a possibility that you will get noticed by the journalists and become very popular if your story is very interesting.

    People will usually do article marketing just for the high quality backlinks from the article directories.
