Alongside Technical SEO and an onsite content strategy, we launched a Digital PR strategy with the aim of increasing brand awareness with particular emphasis on a B2C approach.
We adopted an “Always On” content approach and produced a series of consumer targeted press releases. There was a particular requirement to ensure we ‘stayed on-trend’ by monitoring and reacting to news stories on a regular basis. The focus of these press releases was upon simple DIY tips for consumers of all ability to try at home, such as upcycling furniture and item repair.
We identified and built relationships with relevant journalists which enabled us to achieve impressive coverage on high DA sites. The journalistic content centred primarily around DIY, and how individuals affected by the cost of living crisis, could potentially save money.
The solid relationships built with these journalists allowed us to build reliable and influential partnerships that, in turn, ensured our press release coverage was increased.
January 2023 was our most successful month, gaining 92 links across reputable sites with a high DA. Staying on topic and reacting timely to what the press were producing by way of relevant content, enabled us to amplify our PR approach and secure a wide range of coverage.
