Build pages for press releases alongside the testimonials... great for keywords & as basis of link campaign

Reaching All the Search Engines - High Rankings Advisor: "Press releases very often contain important industry buzzwords, highly
relevant, keyword-rich text and an ideal word count for optimized web
page content. Press releases are tightly focused on single themes and
can be easily plugged into themed sections -- ideal for SEO."....
"The big players will often find ways to make
news with public relations involving smaller partners and will
sometimes use those press releases on their own site for publicity.

With innovative PR professionals working in concert with small
businesses, they may even get the corporate client to use their much
greater resources to distribute those press releases through giant
corporate distribution channels (far beyond the miniscule reach of
small businesses). This will gain them press coverage and help
establish their brand while linking them to the image of larger
corporate clients in the minds of their customers."
