Whether it’s local newpapers, ap wires, press release tickers, or even splogs, your press release (with the text about your site AND a link back in most cases) could be listed as in in multiple places. In addition, a local (or even national) newspaper might pick up the story and contact you for an exclusive interview about your site. You can’t beat FREE promotion!
