I hired a writer to write a press release and distributed them for me. It does work well to make your website appear in Google News for a period of time.
you can apply for inclusion here google.com/support/news_pub/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=40787 i tried once with no luck. on DP there was some guys who write on google news approved sites. you could use their service as well.
Ensure you meet their guidelines while applying for an inclusion, especially the points about multiple authors and a dedicated page for them. - http://www.google.com/support/news_pub/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=191208&rd=1
can we created multiple authors account just to meet the terms and conditions? i have a blog but it's only written by me, however i am trying to get it into google news.
try these!! Google has published guidelines in regards to what sites they will accept which are: 1. Have news content reporting on recent events – please note that we don’t include informational and how-to articles, classified ads, job postings, fictitious content, event announcements, advice columns or adult content; 2. Have content that is original to the site; 3. Have articles that are written and maintained by a clear organization, one that has multiple writers and editors with accessible contact information; 4. Don’t solely promote their own activities or products; 5. Don’t violate Google’s quality guidelines available at http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=35769#3
There is no space of Luck. If you are big Media industry established for long years, then Google will approve you soon.
To get approved by Google news, I believe the correct formula is a decent looking site with fairly regular and original articles that aren't spam and plain advertising, should be informative to the user. The final requirement is your site must have multiple users submitting content. All of these authors should be visible on an author profile page.
