I’m not so sure about press releases. Do you have any proof that they work?

Personally im scared of paying for marketing services. I’ll stick with hours of web crawling and promoting. But great article.

I agree that one of the best metrics to use is media exposure and increases in sales. It’s not about the number of links.

Great article.
I think the challenges folks face when deciding whether or not to pay for PR include:

1. You associate “free” PR with the web.
2. How do you truly measure a Return On Investment to know you received good value if you’ve spent money?
3. If it was successful; is that repeatable? If it wasn’t successful can you afford to try again?
4. “Aunt Mary” said it was a waste of money and as we all know so many “Aunt Marys” we tend to believe her rather than the professionals.

Cheers
