What is an Online Newsroom?It has been thirteen years since the first corporate online newsroom solution was released, but still, even today, I get the question "what is an online newsroom and what can it do for me?". In response, I decided to create a short video demonstration that outlines the key benefits and features of online newsrooms as well as a look at a handful of best-in-class sites. |

25 Incredible Online NewsroomsWhen doing research for an upcoming PRSA webinar, I decided to put together a list of 25 incredible online newsrooms. Absolutely no scientific method in choosing these specific online newsrooms was used. Informally, I searched online newsroom vendor web sites (including my company, TEKGROUP International) and also looked for previous recommendations from industry leaders such as Deirdre Breakenridge and Lisa Buyer. |

TEKGROUP - Market Your Message.
TEKGROUP was featured today in an article penned by Lisa Buyer for Search Engine Watch. The topic was content marketing, something that we've been big proponents of for a long time. Like others, we are starting to see more and more organizations leverage their online newsroom for content marketing.
TEKGROUP would like to congratulate BZKLR, a detoxifying nutritional supplement powder drink, on the launch of their new web site, online store, and social media marketing initiative. BZKLR is a nutritional supplement that promotes the removal of toxins from the body. The BZKLR online newsroom will highlight events, news, videos and photo galleries from promotions and fans. Bars and restaurants interested in making BZKLR available can join an affiliate program and complete orders online.
It's that time again! The annual Online Newsroom Survey is being conducted by TEKGROUP International. If you are a journalist or know of any, please send them the link to the survey http://svy.mk/take-our-survey and they will be registered to possibly win an iPAD or iTUNES gift certificates. Each year we ask journalists how they use online newsrooms and what we can do better to make them more useful and engaging. The results will be published in January 2012.
