How To Get Press Coverage On Major Media Outlets & Industry-Leading Blogs… Every Month

Even if… you’re in a “boring” niche.

Even if… you don’t have connections with journalists.

Even if… you have zero experience with public relations.

Hi, I’m Brian Dean, founder and CEO of Backlinko.

Today, I get covered in the national media all the time, including Inc, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, U.S. News & World Report, Success Magazine, Vox, Forbes, The Next Web, HuffPost, TechCrunch, and dozens more.

This press coverage generates targeted traffic, authority backlinks, high-converting leads, and paying customers. Every single month like clockwork.

Which drives the growth of my growing, multi-million dollar business.

I quickly realized that PR can directly lead to increased brand awareness, authority backlinks, and hundreds of social shares for my business. Which ended up driving a consistent stream of targeted visitors to my site from social media, SEO and blogs. Month after month.

Here’s What Happened Next…

Needless to say, I was PUMPED that I finally found something that actually worked.

But I had this nagging thought in the back of my mind: “Was this the type of approach that could work consistently? Or was it just a fluke?”.

As they say, “Once you’re lucky. Twice you’re good”.

And I needed to find out if this strategy was something that I could scale. Or just a lucky break.

So over the next 18 months, I tried out this same strategy several more times.

And just like the first time, I found myself getting more press coverage than I ever thought was possible.

Which helped increase my site’s traffic by 64.72% over that timespan.

It felt like I discovered some sort of PR cheat code.

Before, I struggled to get journalists to even reply to my emails. And out of nowhere my business was getting press every single month. Practically on autopilot.

To be clear: Not every campaign is a blockbuster hit. Some do better than others. But even our worst-performing campaigns bring in significant amounts of traffic and press coverage. And most important of all, a GREAT ROI.

All in all, PR has been one of the key drivers of my online business. In fact, PR has directly helped Backlinko grow from a complete unknown into one of the most popular marketing blogs on the planet.

That said, PR isn’t just for getting more traffic (although it’s great for that too). In fact, this experience made me realize that PR has a bunch of little-known benefits that I didn’t expect.

The question is: how did I do it? And how can you do the same thing?

Once I started to get regularly mentioned in major publications, people would ask me: “Brian, I just saw your feature on TechCrunch? How did you do it?”

I had to laugh. Like I showed you before, my first few attempts at PR were complete disasters. I really only finally started to figure things out relatively recently.

Then, out of nowhere, people saw me getting featured on major media outlets, influencers sharing my site on social media, and Forbes using my business as an example of a “one-person seven-figure business” unicorn.

But they didn’t see the proven approach that I used behind the scenes to pull it off.

I’m not sharing this with you to brag…

In fact, it’s the complete opposite. Like I mentioned to you before, I really struggled with PR at first. So I’m definitely not “a natural” at public relations. Far from it.

Instead, I’m someone that’s spent much of the last 5 years testing out different PR strategies, approaches and tactics.

Over that time I’ve learned what works. What doesn’t. And exactly what levers to pull to get journalists to cover your business.

And I can teach you how to do it too. Because once you have the right system in place, ANYONE can get consistent press coverage for their business. Even if you have zero experience with PR.

And now it’s time for me to cover the 3 key secrets that I learned about getting press every month. These lessons are the foundation of the advanced PR machine that I use today.

Cracking the code on successful PR

Over the last 5 years, I’ve run dozens of successful PR campaigns.

Each one of those campaigns taught me a lot. On each one I’d test something new — a new format, a new outreach tactic, a new internal process.

And after dozens of launches under my belt, the breakthroughs start to add up.

Today, I’ve boiled our PR campaigns down to a super simple, reliable, tested, scalable system. One that anyone can use to get press coverage for their business.

This is how getting press coverage SHOULD work

When I was starting out, I would have killed for a course that showed me how to reliably get press coverage for my business.

One that gave me:

#1: A Proven System

A street-tested approach for getting press mentions and features on top-tier news sites and industry blogs. A system that got results no matter what kind of business I was in. And one that held my hand through every single step of the process.

#2: Actionable Techniques and Strategies

Proven strategies that I could use to get “quick wins” within days.Strategies that were detailed and easy to follow.

That way, all I needed to do to get press coverage was execute the steps laid out in front of me.

#3: Expert Guidance

Answers to all my questions before I had to ask them. How do I create something that will get news sites to write about my business? How do I find journalists that will cover me? What do I include (and not include) in my pitch? How do I outsource this system… and scale it up?

Case studies, real-life examples, and checklists for everything. I never need to start from scratch again. I’ll always have helpful templates, scripts, examples, and detailed worksheets I can refer to.

#4: A System That Scales

Material that scales with me as I grow. For example, specific strategies that I can use to get my first mention in the press — along with advanced techniques to get 10, 20, or even 100 major media mentions and features each month.

The good news is, I’ve included every step of this system in a new course that will show you how to build your own PR machine.
