DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT USE

Do NOT spend a single penny on this company. They sent out my press release. I made it very clear it was only for the US. My news is IRRELEVANT in a click bait website based in Malaysia.

I recognized ONE site they sent it to. Everything else was shady, click bait or vampire sites dragging from other sources. Useless trash.

Paid for Tier 2 Pro $65.

Paid for Tier 2 Pro $65.

The service is absolute garbage.
They claim to send to
Google Inclusion NOTHING     
Yahoo Search Inclusion NOTHING                             
Bing Search Inclusion NOTHING                             
Google News Inclusion NOTHING                              
Apple News Inclusion NOTHING  
Social Media Blast NOTHING   

Guaranteed Placements-They claimed 300+
They possibly sent to 142 placements-mostly to their affiliates. Questionable- and only then equal to Tier 1 service at $21.   

Guaranteed Press Release Reach-9K-16K reach NOTHING   
...and so on.

They tried to verify that they had sent to the above (Google etc), But all they actually did was show that issuewire.com comes up in a search with no actual PR published on any of the sites listed-only a link on issuewire.

They even had the nerve to include the PR I'd done with other distributers that came up in a search as if it one of was theirs.

The promotion report is also absolute garbage with over 20+ claiming to be sent to YouTube and most of the rest sent to obscure and uncheckable sites.
With 1542 supposedly sent to one site alone (to obviously fudge up the numbers) and still nothing found there when I checked. So again, that's 1500+ sent and not 1 PR/article or mention could be found.

So don't waste your money fellow Indie Artists.
It's a scam. Legal action next.

CP.

Only Distribute When Paying

Did the free trial press release just to see what websites picked up my press release and how well the site was at distributing. After a couple days of it being released, I go to the stats and see there has been ZERO websites that picked up my release. It seems that they want you to "promote" the release by spending money on what was supposed to be a free release. Moral of the story, I wont use them again and they should reconsider their "FREE" trial system.

Fair price

Fair price, good customer support, and good effort. Good distribution as well.
But the number of sites indexed on Google after the distribution is low. That must improve.

Issuewire Is Top Tier

IssueWire is the leading press release distribution site. The site is user friendly and houses all of my agency's media needs on one platform.

Don't pay for a bunch of nothing

There list of sites are a bunch of no name sites mostly in Asia. The stats they show are meaningless drivel and not up to the standard with other sites. This site is of absolutely no use.

Absolute Trash

Trash. My band is about to release an album called Big In Bangladesh. We tried to use this garbage service to do a press release. This was their response: "From Editor :

Hello,
Currently, we are not accepting any content from Bangladeshi artists.
Thank You."

The FIRST LINE of our press release states we are from Seattle, Washington.

This service is worthless, do not give them money.

Garbage customer service

Garbage customer service. They did not give me the coverage I was promised and when following up with the customer support, the person does not understand the problem at all and is not giving me the coverage or a refund.
