Welcome Rudman,

There is no more free press releases on PRWeb the minimum is $40.

It also should be noted that not every press release will give you a trackback. I found that the more competetive industry is the hurder is to get a trackback. It looks like some trackbacks are held for moderation while others give you a link right away.

That’s a neat tip regarding the trackbacks (thanks to both Vlad and Andy) .. I also have found some benefit to PR web releases (both free and paid) .. although many of the links from re-posted/published versions of a release fade away within a mere few months, have found there’s usually a decent number that get crawled regularly and keep that good old link-age fire burning .. it’s definatly not the endall/beall for link dev, but a good complement, especially when used as intended, to announce something new ..

Jatin,

Some article directories are quiet good. I have use EzineArticles with some success. Unfortunately you need abou 100 articles in order to see a noticable boost in traffic.

I have been usin PRWeb for sometime now. Few months back they still had an option to sumbmit press releases for free, but I did mostly $40 submitions, this optio is still there. If budget permits and you have a hot product/website to promote I would definetely go with $200 submitions. Well worthed in my opinion.

Hi , thanks for the tip. I am finding writing a whole big article and getting a 0 pr link from article submission directories are not yielding enough results. I never tried prweb but will do it now. Thanks again.

Funny you mentioned Darren’s blog. I have several artcles linking to his post that did not gave me a trackback. I e-mailed Darren and got a reply from his about it. Turns out it was filtered by “colletive intelligence” filtering software.
