    You can write interesting news and recent updating news in a press release. It is also called a news release. Press releases can bring you first-page visibility for your keywords very quickly.
    In article submission you can write article about different topics and submit it in niche article directories. Through that you can get back links for your site.

    A Press release can feature you in Google News search results - will bring a good amount of visitors - If done right

    article contains detailed information about the topic you are discussing about whereas press release IS NOT a place for you to "promote" ,it's more towards "telling" people that you are exist. it could be your new set-up company , product to be launched soon (but not specially selling though) . hope you got the point

    If you choose a topic and write some content that will be called as "Article" .
    If you are announcing some thing, doing some thing new and wish to inform same to others, That will be called as Press Release.

    Press Release: A press release can be about a happening that influences your business, or it can be concerning a modification in your corporation that will concern your client base.

    Article:- The purpose of the article is to disseminate information, share expert knowledge and tips to an industry, market or process. The only part where we promote ourselves is at the end of the article.

    you can also take a look at this, a very well defined article about article submission and press release difference.

    By Article submission, we put our opinion about any topic/product/service, whereas press release reflects information about product and service.

    Like Sherly said, it's two totally different things. If you want to target some real and popular press release sites that also feed Google News for example, hiring someone to write a professional press release that does not read like an article or some promotional text is really advisable. This way your chances that the press release will be syndicated on interesting sites are greatly enhanced, too.

    There are many resources to check into to find out the difference between a press release and an article which the name alone explains them. A press release which is design to informed people about new activity of your business and has to be written properly, and an article is to educate the masses or your knowledge on the subject matter. A press release can be more complex to write at times.

    Article marketing is a kind of publicity in which businesses inscribe short articles related to their individual industry.
    A press release is usually used to generate short-term buzz for a meticulous event or promote a certain feature of a business for a precise purpose. Articles are purely information piece that you use to promote your business from side to side distribution to various article marketing directories.
