Here are some tips to get started in right direction:
Add accepted keyword phrases in your article:
While writing your article; make sure to incorporate popular keywords in your headline, subheads, and abstract of your article. Placing these keywords may help prospects and the press to identify your article when they run a search in the major news feeds.
Include your website links also:
Whether it is in author's byline or in the body of the article, if you are leaving to write an article, make sure to include your site link within the article as this is a good way to get inbound links from other sites, without having to return the favor.
Submit to PRWeb and newswires:
To get your press release indexed, and ranked, you want to consider submitting to an article distribution service like PR Web.

Identify the good websites for your article:
After optimizing your article; recognize which sites to submit your article to publish. There are thousands of publishers looking for quality content to publish. It is good to find high traffic websites that have the audience you are looking to aim. To find these sites, perform a search in Google by placing related terms like "article submission" or "article directory" in search box. For instance, if you are writing a self-help article, type the word "self-help articles" and target the sites that are on the first few pages.
Article announcement list:
They are newsletters, groups, or ezines, which permit you to "announce" your new articles to editors and publishers instantly. Most of these lists are sent out daily to their subscribers. So you can have your article circulating to main editors and publishers within hours of completion.
Become a contributing writer:
If you are an accomplished or aspiring writer with a little to contribute, you can consider becoming a contributing writer for an online community. Characteristically, you need not get paid for your work, but the amount of exposure is invaluable. You will also get credit for your article including a free link to your email address and your site!
