Hey guys. I did a release with PRWeb and a few other services yesterday May 10th. Here is the link: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2006/5/prweb382709.htm And the results so far. Reads - 44,800 Estimated Pickups - 433 Prints - 10 Forwards - 0 PDF Downloads - 22 The release made it into both google and yahoo news. I paid $90 dollars. This is the second time I've used PRWeb and in my opinion, it can be good for backlinks and SEO, but unless you pay enough to get into the very top spot for everyone to see, you should not count on your release being written about in the media unless it is truly unique and newsworthy. Good tool if used wisely, but no "magic" traffic and media solution. What are some results you guys have had, anyone get published by the media other than google or yahoo news and other such expected places?
Your results look like interest was taken in your press release. You have a nice site and concept. Good luck with the promotion and the journey along the way.
We submitted a couple of press releases for a major client of ours over the course of the last month.. $200 Submission: Reads 75,652 Estimated Pickup 639 Prints 24 Forwards 0 PDF Downloads 82 $80 Submission: Reads 46,057 Estimated Pickup 370 Prints 11 Forwards 0 PDF Downloads 36 Although these weren't really 'general interest' press releases, and the $200 one was probably more interesting to our target audience.
Nice release, but I have no idea what service you provide from reading it... "Be Connected. Your Company and Everyone in it."
