Free press release sites are flooding the internet - no wonder press release submission is a great online marketing tool to increase the web visibility of your sites, events, services and products. To reach your goal by releasing press releases without any additional costs but spending your valuable time a free press release site needs to fulfill some seo, linkbuilding, marketing and social media standards.

So what should you expect from a free press release account? How could you prove that your free press release submission provider is a time and cost saving online marketing tool? Here are 7 must-have features to check:
 
1. Free account: Are there more possibilities than just to log in and submit releases, e.g. to create a user or business profile or to handle multiple releases? To control the success of your submitted news it would be nice to have some user behavior statistics displayed.

2. Free directory: Is your profile (if offered) taking part in a searchable business or web directory for free?

3. Free submission: Is there a possibility choose a category and to add keywords? Do you have the chance to preview and edit your release before submission for free? Will it be released for free (usually within 24 hours) or is there a hidden charge (as known from many web directories) to get it out as soon as possible?

4. Free distribution: Does your free press release service offer a free xml news and sitemap feature to make your business news available for search engines and news sites like google or yahoo? Will your release be conditioned to get distributed thru 3rd parties via mail-to-friend, print, pdf-download and social bookmarking options?

5. Free link building: To expand your online visibility for free it should be  possible to add clickable links into your press release and business profile within your free account.

6. Free image upload: To present you products and services well and to grab readers attention it might be usefull to add some images to your press release text and a logo for your company's profile.

7. Free archiving: Your release should be filed in a searchable index to make it accessible for interested readers and designated customers.

Don't accept compromise: Certainly the right partner for your free online marketing is somewhere out there. Just take look at widepr's periodical advancing review of free press release sites.
