What Is a Social Media News Release?

The social media news release, also known as SMR, is a next-generation news release that integrates traditional and emerging forms of communications. SMRs incorporate social media features such as hyperlinks, social bookmarking, multimedia, comment and trackbacks.

Social media news releases are a powerful way to generate enormous buzz and create engaging dialogue among journalists, bloggers and other readers across the participatory web about your company and products.
