Based upon the limited data that is currently available through newly setup Google Webmaster Tools, we found PDF’s contribute greatly to the impressions shown within Google and its search partners.
If shared on various B2B social sharing sites such as SlideShare and LinkedIn, the content will be syndicated as well as easily gain link-backs from high velocity websites.
Furthermore, a very cost-effective Pay Per Click campaign can be launched targeting niche terms such as “technology pr” , “transportation pr” and variations thereof. This campaign can cost less than $10/day

aPRsite.com. Sync SlideShare with LinkedIn to automatically publish.

Weekly (new content) Maintenance:

- .5 hours – embed PDF’s onto aPRsite.com website
In order to get the most value from the PDF’s that are being created for each MultiView campaign, we suggest posting each to a few Social Sharing sites.
Currently, users are being sent to the PDF page itself, which can not be embedded with Tracking code. These pages could be resulting in a fair amount of the Direct Traffic currently being seen, however, there is no way to tell.
Creating accounts within pre-existing “hot” properties will allow the following benefits:
Increase page relevance by creating high-quality backlinks, consistently adding content, and increasing phrases on site
Allow aPRsite to quickly and easily launch new PDF’s weekly on the site
Enable B2B users to find aPRsite on the B2B sites, increasing brand impressions
