FAQ: The Importance Of PRs & Organic Traffic

The three most-used crypto advertising methods are press releases, organic articles, and sponsored articles. These content types may help increase brand awareness through either no-follow or do-follow links.

Understanding Press Releases (PR)

Press releases are an excellent way to get your name out there and build credibility for your company or product. In addition, they're a perfect way for businesses to attract new customers and individuals to get their name out there in the business world. Press releases are often published in newspapers or online publications, and they're an inexpensive way to reach a large audience.

A press release is often short-format content with an average of 500 words or less. It is to the point and factual, providing readers with the necessary information without sounding promotional.

How Do Organic Articles Work?

Organic articles are content pieces that appear on a website without being paid for by another entity. Organic articles can help build credibility, too. Knowledgeable people write about the subject matter they're discussing, giving their readers trustworthy information. The downside of organic articles is that they may reach a smaller audience than a paid advertisement (though this is only sometimes true).

Organic articles are full-size articles that are uniquely written for publication. It is a longer-format content type that analyzes companies or aspects in depth without hard-selling readers on products or services.

What About Sponsored Articles?

Sponsored articles are published by someone who has paid for them. Therefore, they have more influence than other types of content on a website. Sponsored articles can help build credibility because they come from trustworthy sources. However, readers may also be skeptical of sponsored content because it's been paid for by someone else.

A sponsored article has several similarities with native articles regarding length and uniqueness. However, they are often promotional and somewhat biased. Therefore, this article type is helpful for content building for promotional (tagged as sponsored) or non-promotional (no sponsored tags but promoting a project/company).

No-follow Links vs. Do-follow Links

One of the most common questions we get from our clients is: "What's the difference between no-follow and do-follow links on a website?"

Do-Follow Links Explained

A do-follow link doesn't tell search engines not to follow or trust it. Google's ranking algorithm counts a do-follow link as a "vote" for your website. Building more do-follow links improves domain authority and your brand's trust.

No-follow Links Explained

A no-follow link is like any other link, except it doesn't pass along any value from one web page to another when someone clicks on it. Instead, no-follow links have the designated "nofollow" tag in their code (rel="nofollow"). In other words, if someone clicks on a no-follow link on your website and visits another site, that site won't get any SEO credit for being linked by you.
