Boosting a Crypto News Platform's Presence Through Strategic PR Marketing

Client Overview

Founded in 2022, our client is an up-and-coming news platform for all things blockchain and cryptocurrency. The site provides real-time alerts, market analysis, opinion pieces, and educational content on the fast-evolving themes of Web3, DeFi, NFTs, and crypto regulations. With a small 5-person editorial staff comprised of experienced writers and analysts, the company aimed to become a trusted voice in contrast to mainstream crypto media, offering impartial and in-depth reports.

However, despite these well-intended efforts, brand visibility, limited media connections, and low traction for announcements were proving to be hurdles. Editorial integrity and quality of content were high, but what was needed was a sound public relations strategy to carve out reference value and capture attention in an overly crowded crypto media landscape.

Service Provided: PR Marketing

Challenges

The client faced difficulties gaining substantial traction in what is perhaps one of the most competitive industries: blockchain journalism, despite publishing high-quality and research-backed content. The major problems were:

Limited visibility in search results and among crypto communities

Little presence in high-authority crypto media platforms

Minimal engagement from press releases and thought-leadership content

Difficulty with the brand positioning as an authority in the Web3 space.

The client approached Blockchain Marketing Ninja to craft a robust PR strategy that would strengthen its brand identity and position it as a reference site for blockchain news.

Objectives

Mostly through earned media mentions and premium placements, this will increase the visibility of the platform.

Further, ensure there are regular PR stories across Tier 1 crypto and mass media. For enhanced SEO through backlinks, work with established PR campaigns.

Create reliable media voices within the Web3 community from the platform's editorial team.

Drive referral traffic from credible sources in the crypto world.

Solution

1. Strategic Media Mapping

We located the most appropriate fintech media platforms and cryptocurrency-centered publishers for this client's niche, which included both organic and sponsored-published placements.

2. Story-Centric Content Creation

Instead of mainstream statements, we focus on developing fascinating stories as well as insights into what media outlets will find: expert takes, market trends, and behind-the-scenes editorial strategies.

3. Premium Media Placements

We used our extensive network to connect with key journalists, editors, and influencers in the crypto and blockchain areas.
Distributed releases to leading crypto and mainstream media outlets, ensuring comprehensive coverage.

4. Authority Building

In bolstering the brand's position as an industry thought leader, we actively featured the editorial team and contributors in guest posting, opinion polls, and interviews.

5. SEO-Driven PR

Everything put out was published in strict observance of SEO, with deliberate backlinks to key landing pages to enhance the site’s domain authority and ranking potential.

6. High-Impact Press Releases

We strategically prepared and disseminated two press releases- one for the recent updates of the platform and the other for announcing the new editorial initiative. Both press releases have been prepared in a journalistic style so as to attract interest from real media houses and, hence, engagement.

7. Crisis Communication Planning

Dean Krakel, manager of the Business Continuity Planning Bureau's Emergency Management Department, stated in an interview: " Phases One and Two provide the structure for emergency management, while in Phases Two and Three, disaster recovery strategies secure essential operations.”

Results & Impact

Within just 90 days, the impact was undeniable:

Achieved more than 30 featured articles on reputed cryptos and financial news websites.

Resulted in a mind-blowing 4x increase in the visibility of the channels, taking the number of subscribers and regular readership to huge heights.

A 60% increase in referral traffic due to PR placements.

Increased audience engagement by 80% through insightful articles and thought leadership content, building an audience community.
