Writing
Guidelines.

To maintain the integrity of our syndication network and ensure 100% acceptance across Tier-1 news nodes, all submissions must adhere to the following structural and network standards.

Headline & Lead Paragraph

Your headline is the most critical element. It must be strictly newsworthy, factual, and free of sales jargon. The lead paragraph must instantly answer the 5 Ws: Who, What, When, Where, and Why.

  • Title length: 60 to 100 characters max.
  • No exclamation marks (!) or ALL CAPS phrases.
  • Dateline required (e.g., NEW YORK, NY - Jan 1, 2026).

Journalistic Tone

A press release is a news announcement, not an advertisement. It must be written in a third-person, objective, and professional tone. Avoid direct appeals to the reader.

  • No direct address: Avoid "You", "We", "Our", "I".
  • Remove hype words like "Groundbreaking", "Revolutionary".
  • Use quotes for subjective opinions or executive claims.

Linking Policy

Hyperlinks are powerful for SEO, but strict limits apply to prevent spam penalties on our Tier 1 news networks. All links are passed as do-follow / no-follow depending on the publishing outlet's strict internal policies.

  • Maximum of 3 organic links per article.
  • No shortened links (bit.ly, tinyurl) allowed.
  • Anchor texts must be natural, not keyword-stuffed.

Length & Structure

Search engines and news desks prioritize well-structured, substantive content. Articles must have enough depth to be considered legitimate news.

  • Strictly between 400 and 1,000 words.
  • Must include an "About the Company" boilerplate.
  • Must include a Media Contact (Name, Email, Website).

Media & Formatting

Visual assets increase engagement by over 40%. All press releases must contain a featured image. Text formatting should be clean and readable.

  • At least 1 high-res image (min. 800x600px).
  • Accepted formats: JPG, PNG, WEBP. No GIFs.
  • Avoid excessive bolding or messy HTML tables.

Prohibited Content

We maintain strict editorial filters. Submissions containing any of the following will be automatically rejected by our compliance engine without refund.

  • Adult content, dating platforms, or explicit material.
  • Unregulated crypto schemes, gambling, or betting.
  • Pending litigation, legal claims, or defamation.

Act as an elite Public Relations Executive and Journalistic Editor who works for top-tier news networks like Associated Press and Reuters. Your task is to write a highly professional, ready-to-publish press release based on the following specific information:

=== CONTEXT ===
- Subject/News To Announce: [INSERT YOUR SPECIFIC NEWS, LAUNCH, OR EVENT HERE]
- Company Name: [INSERT FULL COMPANY NAME]
- Location: [INSERT CITY, COUNTRY]
- Spokesperson Name & Title: [INSERT NAME AND TITLE FOR QUOTES]
- Media Contact Info: [INSERT EMAIL, PHONE, AND WEBSITE]
=============

=== STRICT EDITORIAL STANDARDS (TIER-1 NEWS ACCEPTANCE) ===
1. TONE & PERSPECTIVE: 
   - Ensure a strictly objective, third-person perspective. NEVER use first-person ("I", "We", "Our", "Us") or second-person ("You", "Your") pronouns anywhere outside of direct quotes.
   - Maintain a neutral journalistic voice. Do not sound like a sales advertisement.
   - Eliminate all promotional jargon, hype words, and unsubstantiated claims (e.g., "groundbreaking", "revolutionary", "best-in-class", "disrupting").
   - Remove any calls-to-action (e.g., "Buy now", "Sign up today", "Click here") from the core news body. Let the news speak for itself.

2. STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS:
   - HEADLINE: Create a compelling, factual headline under 100 characters. Make it newsworthy. Do not capitalize every single letter or use exclamation marks (!).
   - DATELINE: Must start the first body paragraph strictly formatted as: CITY, COUNTRY – Month Day, Year – 
   - LEAD PARAGRAPH: Directly and concisely answer the core journalistic elements (Who, What, When, Where, Why) within the very first 2-3 sentences.
   - BODY PARAGRAPHS: Develop the core message across 3 concise paragraphs. Provide background context, factual achievements, statistical data (if any), and market relevance. Keep sentences crisp and scannable.
   - EXECUTIVE QUOTATION: Provide exactly one (1) credible, well-crafted quote from the designated Spokesperson. The quote should convey human insight or future vision, not sales jargon.
   - CALL-OUT LINK PLACEHOLDERS: Organically insert the exact phrase "[INSERT BACKLINK 1 HERE]" and "[INSERT BACKLINK 2 HERE]" within the body text where it makes contextual sense.
   - BOILERPLATE: Create an "About [Company Name]" section at the end. Make it a 3-4 sentence factual summary of what the company does and its overarching mission.
   - MEDIA CONTACT: Under the boilerplate, clearly display a "Media Contact" block detailing the company name, contact person, email, and website.

3. OPTIMIZATION & LENGTH:
   - Target word count: Strictly between 500 and 800 words to ensure algorithmic indexing and density.
   - Ensure the paragraphs are beautifully spaced for easy online reading. Use bolding sparingly for section headers only (e.g., **About [Company Name]**).

Please output the final Press Release immediately without conversational preamble.
