How to create the perfect press release headline
How to create the perfect press release headline
Updated this week

The headline of your press release should always appear at the very top and focus on a single business announcement, such as “Company X Launches New Product.”

When creating your headline, always include your brand name, and avoid using numbers, discounts, sales-related terms, questions, links, exclamations, or ending punctuation. Refrain from starting with words like who, what, where, when, why, or how, and aim for a length of 8-20 words.

Try to include an important keyword and name your target audience as well. Ideally, your headline should include your brand name, a relevant keyword, and your target audience. For example:

Nike Expands Offerings with New Range of Sneakers for Professional Runners

Use Title Case for improved readability and professionalism. You can easily convert your headline into Title Case using free tools like TitleCase.com.

Below are headline templates to help you create headlines that will be approved by even the most premium outlets.
