    I saw your post on webproworld and put 2 up there a few weeks ago too (keyword feature was pretty well done - easier to understand than prwebs) :)

    Does your press release site syndicate out to others? I didn't see any info on there?

    Hi,

    The Free Press Release Center is regularly crawled by all the top search engines (like Google and Yahoo!) and also our news feeds can be found at:
    NewsNow, FeedPark and RedTram.

    Checkout the About the Free Press Release Center page for links and more information.

    Thanks,

    Gary

    Hi,

    One more quick thing... FPRC has two purposes. 1) Site promotion via press releases and 2) Building backlinks.

    You can kind of think of FPRC as a directory of press releases and like a traditional directory there are links (even deep links) to your web site. It is wise to submit to web directories and it is also wise to submit free press releases.

    Just an aside!

    Thanks

    Gary

    yeah i figured monday was great, and paid ALOT and i still keep dropping through the day lol.. but is there really a difference between 1st and 6-8th ??

    Also question... It says no hyperlinks and that their system adds them.. how do you get them to hyperlink with what ever text u want if u can't use any html tags?

    If you want anchor text on PRWeb (I think the minimum contribution for it is $80 or $200 - I forget)...here's how you do it:

    This site sells some really cool http://www.domain.com/widgets.html [widgets].

    Where widgets is the anchor text and the url is what the anchor will link to. Their software is pretty stupid, so Id only do it 1 time/paragraph, or it'll chop off part of the next sentence :rolleyes:

    just tried it in the review it just shows the url being hyperlinked and not the [keyword]

    tried it both with a space inbetween url and [keyword] and without no change.. but how is it supposed to be?

    Did you preview it? I dont think it'll show on the review, only in the preview mode. You did it correctly based upon the above. Did you donate enough?

    I used PRWeb and it worked pretty well. I used the $30 deal, and would do so again. The distribution was wide enough (and G only listed one BL, anyway).

    I'd do it again tomorrow if I could think of something worthwhile to submit......

    Give up on #1-3 unless you wanna cough up close to $1000. Top 20 or so all seem to get tons of reads.

    wow you are fast!!

    So you'd say there is no difference between 4/5 and 8 or 9?

    Why are the top slots so valueable to they stay on pages longer, or show or do the top 3 show up more places? thanks again

    oh and why would someone pay 1k for a 1,2,3 compared to 4? etc thanks

    I'm sure there is a dropoff from 4 to 9, but what it is, I don't know. I'm too cheap to find out too. :)

    More views. Like in google, top 3 get 75% of the clicks. I'm sure the same applies here.
    Why do people pay $5/click for "TV" or "video" on adwords? I don't know - I can't see how its profitable myself. Especially considering some of the stuff that appears #1.
