Getting traffic is easy.
Getting the right traffic—the kind that converts—is the real challenge.
Most online brands focus on ads and SEO to bring people in.
But PR works differently. It creates visibility in the places your ideal customers already trust.
Here’s how e-commerce brands can use public relations to drive more targeted, high-converting traffic.
Instead of casting a wide net, PR helps you land in the right places.
When your brand is featured in a gift guide, lifestyle article, or industry roundup, you’re showing up directly in your customer’s world.
That’s traffic with intent.
Well-optimized press releases and media mentions often rank in search results.
When your brand shows up across multiple reputable sites, Google notices—and so do your customers.
You benefit from borrowed authority and search-friendly content that drives clicks.
Media coverage is more shareable than traditional ads.
Articles, interviews, and shoutouts can be reposted by the publication, your customers, or influencers.
This expands reach to new but aligned audiences—without additional ad spend.
PR helps build trust early in the customer journey.
When potential buyers research your brand, seeing third-party features creates a sense of credibility that paid ads can’t match.
This trust makes downstream funnel activity (like email signups or product views) more effective.
Traffic from trusted media is different.
It’s warmer, more curious, and more primed to engage.
That makes it ideal for retargeting campaigns—because you’re starting with leads who already trust your brand.
