Pages: Press Coverage

Guides press coverage and media mentions aggregation—showcasing third-party coverage from authoritative sites to build trust. Optional page; when coverage is sparse, implement as a small "As Seen In" or "As Featured In" section on homepage or elsewhere. Distinct from media-kit-page-generator (assets for journalists). For conceptual overview and comparison table, see reference.md.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Initial Assessment

Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read for company story and key messages.

Identify:

• Coverage volume: Few mentions vs substantial

• Format: Full page vs section

• Sources: Publications, podcasts, awards, industry lists

Full Page vs Section

Format When to Use Placement

Full page Substantial coverage (10+ mentions); journalists visit for expert contacts; "inbound PR" /press, /news, /in-the-news

Section Sparse coverage (1–10); quick credibility; logo strip or quote carousel Homepage below hero; About page; footer

Rule: Homepage section = logos only, minimal, below main CTA. Full page = headlines, links, dates, contact.

Full Page Structure

Element Guideline

Coverage list Chronological or by publication; headline, outlet, date, link

Separation Press coverage (third-party) vs press releases (company-authored); coverage carries more credibility

Types News, podcasts, video features, awards, "Best X" lists

Contact Media inquiries; link to media kit

Dates Optional on evergreen content; omit to keep timeless

Section Structure ("As Seen In" / "As Featured In")

Element Guideline

Logos Publication logos; high-contrast, consistent size

Placement Below hero/CTA; above fold or just below

Quote Optional: one compelling snippet; extract from best coverage

Link Optional: "See all coverage" → full page if exists

Avoid: Clutter; too many logos; low-authority outlets that dilute trust.

Content Types to Aggregate

Type Example

News articles Forbes, Bloomberg, TechCrunch, industry trade

Podcasts Interview features, guest appearances

Video TV segments, YouTube features

Awards "Best X 2024," "Top 10 Startups"

Reviews Product reviews, roundups

Trust Principles

• Third-party > self-authored: Media mentions beat press releases for credibility

• Authority matters: Forbes, Bloomberg > unknown blogs

• Recency: Recent coverage signals active business; update regularly

Output Format

• Format (full page vs section) recommendation

• Structure (elements, order)

• Copy (headline, intro if full page)

• Placement (URL, page location)

• SEO: Index for "company name press" / "company name news"; or noindex if thin
