The Digital PR Playbook: What you’ll learn
What is digital PR?
As digital PR is a relatively new marketing channel, The Digital PR Playbook explains its history and objectives, its differences between traditional link building and PR and why it’s such an important part of any solid SEO and brand strategy.
Types of backlinks
Backlinks are the foundation and primary objective of digital PR. However, not all links are created equally. We take a deep dive into the different types of backlinks, exploring their strengths and weaknesses, as well as the importance of focusing on quantity over quality.
Campaign Planning
The success or failure of a digital PR campaign can hinge on the planning process and strategy. Each element of a campaign needs to be carefully considered, from ideation through to research and data, content creation, compiling media lists and curating the perfect outreach email.
Digital PR Tactics
There isn’t just one digital PR technique; there are a range of tactics in our toolkit that we can use to not only build links, but also to earn links to commercial pages and impact wider marketing and brand objectives. To achieve these objectives, we use a blend of hero campaigns, newsjacking, feature pitching, product placements and leveraging internal experts.
Outreach
The outreach strategy should receive as much attention (if not more) as campaign production, including writing the perfect outreach email, curating your media list, as well as the challenges of conducting international outreach and how to ask for those all-important links.
Google Search Algorithms
Any online brand is subject to visibility shifts based on new search algorithms. Digital PR not only increases organic visibility, but also helps protect brands.
Measurement and Performance
Digital PR isn’t just about building links. The book explores traditional link building KPIs and wider brand metrics to provide a more holistic overview of the value of digital PR on SEO, brand and marketing.
Digital PR and SEO Terms
The SEO industry is jargon-heavy, so we’ve provided definitions of all the most popular Digital PR and link building terms.
It will offer you useful advice and insight, alongside real-life examples that you can utilise to execute your own PR strategy.
Whether you’re new to the digital PR scene or you consider yourself already a pro, this playbook is beneficial for all levels. It will equip you with the tactics you’ll need to know to earn those quality links, increase rankings, and drive brand growth.
