Ans:Basic Content Requirements for All Press Releases:
Submitting your press release to FreePressReleaseCenter.com, simply make sure your news release meets these basic content requirements:
- Your press release must be written objectively and in plain English. The information you provide must be honest and accurate and must not distort the truth.
- Your press release must be written as a news announcement, and not as an advertisement. Remember, a news release is meant to inform the public (consumers, bloggers, and journalists) of a newsworthy event.
- You may use quotes to convey your purpose, mission, and message. Use quotes to help personalize the public relations message (example: "We are very excited to have Ms. Susan Smith join our company and look forward to her contributions to our education, research and economic development missions," said Mr. Joe Smith of Somecompany, Inc.)
- Your press release must not be an article, open letter, reader opinion piece, or blog post.
- Your press release must be newsworthy. Maintaining credibility with your customers and the media is very important.
- Your press release must have proper English, spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization and sentence structure. This just makes life easier for everyone.
- Your press release must not contain information on: hacking/cracking content, auto-surf program or promotion, bomb creation, support for terrorism / radicalism / religious fanaticism, illicit drugs or drug paraphernalia, steroid use or advocacy, weapon / firearms / ammunition.
- Your press release must not contain or promote adult content or service, hate or violence-oriented, suggest racial intolerance, advocate against any individual, have insulting-obscene-degrading tone, or contain profanity.
- Your press release must NOT contain any information that is a violation of any law, be considered defamatory, libelous, or infringes on the legal rights of others.
- Your press release must NOT promote a lawsuit or settlement and/or calculated to be sensational and damaging.
- Your press release must not contain any content, products, services or other information that, in FreePressReleaseCenter.com's reasonable determination, may be illegal to sell under any applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation, that may infringe or violate anyone's rights, or that, FreePressReleaseCenter.com believes, in its sole discretion, is inflammatory, offensive, or otherwise inconsistent with the spirit of FreePressReleaseCenter.com.

- What is a press release?
Ans:A press release is a document issued to media and consumers to announce yourself and your product. A well-written release can dramatically increase your sales, expose your company to the masses, and greatly enhance the image of your business or products. A professionally written press release can make the difference between a successful press release and an utter failure. Your release must have a general interest to the target audience and a strong news angle. In addition, your release needs to be written in journalistic rather than marketing style. It should be objectively written and needs to inform people, not just sell them something. The focus of your story should not be on the subject of the product itself but on the creator of the product. A human-interest story or a hint of controversy helps create interest.
Preface the opening sentence of the release with the place and date of the release. At the end include a fairly standard paragraph about Lulu and your contact information.
Aim for absolute clarity and avoid all "spare fat," including too many adjectives or adverbs. Consider using bullet points where appropriate. Both the headline and the first paragraph should summarize and sell the story. Accentuate what is new, unusual, different and extreme. The headline should be 20 words or less and should answer the questions, "So what?" and "Why now?" The introduction should stand on its own, tell the whole story and tell why you have written the story.
