HOUSTON, March 17, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Newswire.Net, a subsidiary of Extensions, Inc. (Pink Sheets:EXTI) announced today that Google has notified the company that its articles will be included in Google News.
"This is an exciting day for Newswire; it gives our independent journalists a louder 'voice' in broadcasting their writings," stated Erin Saxton, CEO of Newswire.Net
Newswire's model is to consolidate independent journalists and bloggers by giving them both the ability of being hired directly from clients online while allowing them access to broadcast the articles they write for various clients, on the Newswire Network.
Article writing and press release distribution represents one of the most powerful Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tools on the internet today. As more journalists join and distribute content on our Newswire platform, the network and the broadcasting voice of Newswire will become louder. This in turn will empower our writers by giving them the ability to directly negotiate a higher rate from prospective clients based upon the Newswire distribution and search engine optimization (SEO) value alone.
"In today's market, the independent writing community is being treated like a commodity. We intend to change this by empowering our writers and harnessing their collective voice into a powerful Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tool," stated Erin Saxton.
