Contrary to popular belief, press releases are not dead by any means. In fact, they are very much alive. While there has been much back and forth banter regarding the effectiveness of a given press release in today's media and news rich online world, they still remain one of the very best and most cost effective means of delivering your message to the online world.

"Issuing regular news releases has helped us garner increased attention for our blogs, guides and white papers, helping us gain more traffic and a steady stream in relative, inbound back links," explained Michael Lazar, Director of Online Marketing at TrueShip in a recent interview with MarketWired, the leader in online press release distribution services.

"Our traffic has steadily increased year-over-year, with 2015 breaking all traffic records so far. Social sharing and engagements have dramatically improved on all content pieces that are mentioned in outbound press releases," Lazar said.
