Write a News-Style Headline

State the actual news clearly. "TechCorp Raises $10M Series A to Expand AI Platform" will be indexed. "Exciting Announcement from TechCorp" will not.

Include a Dateline

Start your body with "CITY, State — Month Day, Year —". This signals to Google News that it is a fresh, datable news item.

Be Factual & Newsworthy

Google News excludes content that reads like advertising. Stick to news facts, quotes, and verifiable information.

Add Company Attribution

Every press release should name the company or organisation making the announcement. Anonymous or unattributed releases are less likely to be featured.

Include an "About" Boilerplate

End with 2–3 sentences about your company including your website URL. This helps Google verify your organisation.

Submit Timely News

Google News prioritises recent content. Submit on the day of your announcement for the best chance of appearing in top news results.
