Digital PR
What is Digital PR?
Digital PR combines PR pitching with SEO goals: stories journalists want to cover, often backed by data or human interest, that earn citations and backlinks.
Example: A salary survey published as interactive charts gets picked up by trade press, each article linking to your methodology page.
Why Digital PR matters
Digital PR matters because earned links and mentions from credible publications build authority and referral traffic in ways paid links can’t replicate—especially for competitive SERPs.
How Digital PR works in digital marketing
Build repeatable data stories, personalize pitches, offer expert quotes, and measure links and referral traffic—not only domain metrics.
