    I am considering applying to be listed in Google News and would like to know if any other webmasters can share their experience from this -- specifically, if you got listed in google news, did you see a lot of new traffic and did it monetize?

    Thanks!

    It depends on the type of content you have. Press releases if you are quick to submit and make it unique and generate some good traffic to your site. You have the initial spike and then it will taper off.

    I can only relate from the other side. I read and get the G News and feeds and I read them everyday so I imagine there has to be many like me, if you got an article picked up I'm sure you would get much traffic. Good Luck

    Google News is an unbelievable source of traffic, no matter what your niche is.
