Struggling to think of a topic for your next Press Release you need Ascendancy I.M. to write for you? Worry no more! We have compiled a list of 100 Press Release Topics that you can send to us for us to compile and distribute out to numerous PR websites!
As long as you give us a topic (can be one of these, but certainly not limited to these topics), a few details as to what exactly the topic entails and how it pertains to your business, a quote from someone in your internal office – either owner or staff member, and if you have one (although not necessary, but still incredibly beneficial) a photo or two! With just this small amount of information, we will craft a professional, interesting, engaging and news-worthy Press Releases for your business that will get picked up by News websites in your local city, town, county, state, region, nation and sometimes – even internationally!
The benefits of Press Releases go far beyond just being seen and picked up by various news sites. Press Releases give us credibility, expertise in our field, recognition locally and abroad for our achievements, INCREDIBLE advertising, building of brand recognition and brand expansion as well as consumer trust, the ability to catch the eyes of potential customers, and much, much more! We here at Ascendancy I.M. use these Press Releases for all of these reasons, however, in terms of Search Engine Marketing – the opportunity and level of authority placed on these being written for each local office containing their local news and information and having that article shared by other sites helps each local client STRENGTHEN their website authority, BOOST traffic to our local websites and social media pages, and (best of all) RAISE OUR RANKINGS through Search Engine Results. These factors are all based off of the strong emphasis that search engines such as Google place on the authority and external links that these Press Releases build.
Hey, what do you have to lose here? Nothing. Let’s get your name out there – anywhere and everywhere – right?! One thing we know for sure, if you’re not doing it – you can bet that your competitors are and our goal as your Internet Marketing service provides is to Partner in Internet DOMINANCE!

If you can’t find SOMETHING to talk about in this list for your business, I’d be concerned if I were you. There are SO many happenings in your office, to your office, around your office, from your office, and including your office that are SO simple to report on – so much so that we often times might not even think of it as “news worthy” but here we are telling you IT IS! So let’s, do this!
