Article marketing vs Press Release. I actually don't know the difference. Can someone tell me the difference and sites as examples.
Press Releases are more about announcing something, such as a new product launch or offering a new service, than about providing information about a topic. Think of a Press Release as a newspaper article, you are sharing news and not content. Below is a short video by EzineArticles on writing press releases. It should help you get an idea of what a Press Release is about. [video=youtube_share;Yqh0ADRfmvY]http://youtu.be/Yqh0ADRfmvY[/video]
Press releases are the kind of articles that end up in newspapers. They're usually discussing a new product, a change in headquarters, an expansion of workforce, etc. They generally get picked up by business publications and similar news organizations. Article marketing is completely different. Articles are written on just about any topic that's related to the topic of the author's site. They are then submitted to article directories and reprinted by other blogs or websites as filler content. The author benefits because of the links back to their website or affiliate product links they include.
Great video share there. As you mentioned, PR releases aren't just about dodgy article marketing - it's about sharing company news that is valuable to the internet community.
There is a little bit difference b/w article and press release submission. In articles we need two or three stuff like title, body text & about author but in press release submissions we need other necessary detail rather than content like company name, city, address, street no. etc.

the biggest plus to press releases is that they are normally syndicated across the web to many sites, so by submitting one press release you could get many backlinks as opposed to a simple article directory.
Hi Friends, Press releases can appear both in the news section as well as the organic listings of engines and I have found that with back linking they can stay longer in organic listings. Prlog used to be very good in organic, but did get hit by panda, however with backlinking and less competitive words it still can work. The top article directories also were hit hard as well. Some people do browse the news section daily in google and yahoo so if you have a catchy headline it can be a very good source of traffic. With either press releases or articles, a number of sites can add your writing to their site and this can be a good source of both back links and traffic. Thanks and Regards
Are there any free Press Release sites that still have a high PR after the latest google updates? I've been on the fence about doing a ton of work if its not going to pay off.
Press Releases are meant to promote your website with some news related to your website or business whereas article marketing is done to inform the user about the subject, both are means of off-page SEO.
What is holding the most weight with Google now? Is it articles or press release that I should be working on?
Article Submissions is General content and Press Release is News content. Press release is fully promotional and news for your product or service.
You should do both, and post on the highest quality press release sites out there. PR web is costing a lot of money, so you may consider wanting to submit to the best free press release sites out there.

The basic difference is that a Press Release appears in the news section, whereas an article shares general information revolving around certain keywords and are not a part of the news section.
article marketing gives you provision to give your url link pointing towards your site, whereas in press release you can give your url on bottom but no link.
