Frequently asked questions
What makes a good press release?
A clear, factual announcement with a relevant audience. Explain what changed, why it matters, and where readers can find evidence or ask questions. Our blog includes practical guides to writing, pitching, and preparing a release.
Where do I sign in or create an account?

Which product is right for my announcement?
Start with news distribution to publish a release, Resonate to plan the workflow, or Influencers and Mediahub to focus your outreach. Contact our team to discuss specific requirements and service options.
Does distribution guarantee a journalist will cover my story?
No. Publishing a release and earning independent editorial coverage are different outcomes. Journalists make their own decisions about which stories to report. Relevant news, useful evidence, and thoughtful outreach can make your story easier to evaluate.
How should I choose my distribution audience?
Start with the people affected by the announcement. Choose geography, industry, and publication types that fit the story. More destinations are not automatically more relevant destinations.
Can I include images and video?
Prepare relevant, approved assets with captions and permissions. Confirm the current file formats, limits, and multimedia options with your distribution provider before submission.
