Today’s world is super-fast paced and every time you want to get some press in the news you have to know someone, have great news or pay for it. So a list of free online press release locations is always a plus to have in your back pocket. Let’s admit it, having your name out there is a good thing. I have spent about 3 years now, really looking for some good places to post PRs online and save the company some money. Heck, free online press releases are a great way to go. It start off when I worked for this not to great company (they were crap, overworked the employees and underpaid them…underpaid everyone except the Executive team…they had enough money to drive around in Ferrari’s while the rest of us picked between food for the week and gas for the car for the week…as you can guess they had a very high turnover rate and I didn’t stay there very long!). My boss, in order to save money asked me to start looking to see if there was anywhere online that we could post our Press Releases for free. So I started looking and I have found quite a few…some over the years have started charging, gone to dead links and a bunch of other things and others are just temperamental…but here is the list, I figure I should share it J
Now I know this isn’t all of them, however, these are the ones that I have always found to be pretty reliable. Most of them do not allow you to use HTML (etc.) but it is always a great way to get your name out there.
Out of all of them, my personal favorite is the Pitch Engine. You can use code, add images, video, links, and other news. It automatically posts to twitter and is really a great forum. Simple and easy to use.
If you know of any others that are not listed here…please let me know. Or if you find one of these is not a helpful site, or begins to charge, or can add any in-sight, please feel free to add a comment.
