PR is no longer just about sending press releases. In 2025, successful communication revolves around digital visibility, backlinks and credible storytelling.

What is Digital PR?

Digital PR blends traditional public relations with SEO strategies. Its goal is to generate mentions on relevant online platforms that convey credibility and authority.
