Each release covers a different topical angle to avoid redundancy flags from newswire editors:\n\n| Week | Topic Category | Example |\n|---|---|---|\n| Week 1 | Service announcement | New service offering, service expansion |\n| Week 2 | Award or recognition | Community award, certification milestone |\n| Week 3 | Educational / thought leadership | Industry tip, guide, or data insight |\n| Week 4 | Local involvement | Sponsorship, event, community partnership |\n\nRotating topics ensures each release is substantively different while maintaining consistent brand presence.\n\n#### The 3-Link Architecture\n\nEvery press release must contain exactly 3 outbound links:\n\n**Link 1 — GMB CID URL**\n- Anchor: \"[Business Name] in [City]\" or \"[Business Name]\"\n- Placement: within the opening paragraph (above the fold of the release)\n- Purpose: citations signal to the business entity, drives map clicks\n\n**Link 2 — Service Page or Money Page**\n- Anchor: partial match keyword (e.g., \"Miami roof replacement specialists\")\n- Placement: within the body of the release, contextual paragraph\n- Purpose: page-level keyword link equity to the target service page\n\n**Link 3 — Previous Press Release URL**\n- Anchor: branded or generic (e.g., \"our previous announcement\" or \"earlier this year, [Brand Name]\")\n- Placement: final paragraph or quote section\n- Purpose: creates a daisy-chain of PR link equity; each month's releases link to the prior month\n\nThis 3-link structure is the minimum standard.
