Press releases are one of the most cost-effective ways to get promotion for your online business. Many entrepreneurs
ignore this type of promotion because they don't know how to write a press release. It's important to promote your online business with press releases because of the media all over the internet. The following is a list of some common press release writing tips:

- keep your press release one page in length

- your header, contact information and release date should be at the top of your press release

- use short sentences and double space in between sentences
