Earlier this week a partner/friend of mine backed out of a project we had been working on. The bad news? I had to scrape something I spent 2 months working on. The good news? It left me with a good domain to use for launching something I've wanted to do for a long time, but couldn't because of a non-compete agreement I had with a previous employer... a PR firm of sorts. So to kick things off I'm offering a large discount to everyone here. If you go to Subnixus and view the Press Release Services page, you'll notice that I charge $99 for creation and distribution... However, right now I'm offering DP members this service for only $40. What you get for $40 Press Release Creation: We'll work together to determine what you are trying to get out of your release. I'll write it for you and let you go over it before distribution. A good release will be around 250-400 words. Press Release Distribution: I will do all of the distribution work for you. I guarantee that your release will appear in Google News. What a press release IS NOT A press release is not something that is going to guarantee you sales or traffic. They are not good for your sales pitch. What a press release IS A press release is a great way to get the word out to the media about something newsworthy. They tell a short story of who, what, when, where and why. You use the press release to hopefully get some media coverage. You CAN use them to try and make sales or gain visitors, but you really have to spin it to make it sound newsworthy. A press release will also guarantee you a good quality backlink. A little more information Unfortunately I don't really have a lot of examples of my work. I worked for a PR firm and did an average of 15 releases a month, but can't share any of them because of an agreement I signed. However, if you visit this page. and scroll down to the Case Study, it does have a link to a release that I wrote back in 2005. How to order PM me the following information (all needed for the release)... Your Name Your Site URL Your e-mail Your Phone # The City/State you wish to target (I will do a nationwide distribution, but still need a city and state for local information) Your Industry What day you want the release to go out A little about what you want to put in the release... what are you trying to accomplish? After I get all of this information I will send you a reply with an estimated time of completion (normally less than 24 hours). Payment Information I require payment before I start work on your release. I take paypal and will give you the e-mail address via the PM I send you.
Since I really need to get a few releases done that I can add to a portfolio, I'll drop the price. The next 5 people to reply to this message (in the forum, not PM) will get a press release AND distribution for just $20. If you've already PM'd me about my services, you also qualify for the $20 deal.
I'm interested in your service, will test it out and see what happens. Hopefully some media coverage will make it great for me. PMing you now. -Swpaw
Well done, I am impressed with the press release, well written. I can't wait for my distribution (starts Friday), well worth the money I spent.
Yep... actually it's available for everyone. No more $40 offer... I now have 3 levels on www.subnixus.net Order on the site or via PM About the $20 Level At the $20 level we will write your press release and distribute it for you. We guarantee your release will appear in Google News and the regular Google Search. About the $70 Level At the $70 level you'll get everything you see in the $20 level, but we step up the distribution for your release. You won't only see your release in Google News, you'll also see it in Ask.com News, MSN News and Topix.net. Visitors to your release will also have the option to download a PDF version of the release. About the $99 Level Okay, so you want your release to appear in all of the news sites listed above, but you also want it in Yahoo News. Well the $99 level has you covered. You'll also be able to include files in your release, an image (that normally appears in the Google News listing), and you'll also receive a bonus regional listing.
Yep. Just as an example, here is one of the releases that went out for my site a few days ago: http://www.prleap.com/pr/103827/
These are the new permanent prices. Just PM me when you are ready, or visit www.subnixus.net and order online.
My release just went out today, its on Google news, etc. In all, a very good job and well worth the money.
I am no longer doing $40 releases... prices have dropped. Please see this thread for more information.
