PR and SEO Alignment

Entry #671 / 700 · Chapter 14 · 14.2 Working across teams, speaking business · Read in Chinese →
In one sentence

Designing communications activity so that it produces not only coverage but also durable links and mentions that search systems can see.

Analogy Mental model

A wedding that feeds the guests and also leaves the most influential person at each table saying something good about you to the person who matters.

In practice What you actually do

Before each release: place a natural link to a core page in the copy itself, make sure the media kit carries the correct URL and assets, monitor new links afterwards, and follow up politely on any mention that named the brand without linking to it.

Where people get burned Pitfalls

Publicity teams are measured on how many outlets ran the story, not on whether a link survived. Involving search before the copy is final is the only way the placement carries value.
