EIN Presswire is not part of Cision/PR Newswire. We are similar to them in that we publish and distribute press releases, but we have our own proprietary and unique distribution platform which we consider superior in various important ways.

The EIN Presswire service is operated by Newsmatics Inc. (previously IPD Group, Inc.), an independent privately-held company registered in the United States. Newsmatics was founded in 1995.

You’ll get picked up by TV and Radio stations throughout the US, and distributed through our country and industry newswires. Fed into news databases such as Bloomberg Terminals, MuckRack, etc. And, we are also a Google News publisher - a gateway to reach billions of people.


EIN Presswire targets your press releases to specific states in the U.S. using the location you specify when creating a press release. We have lists of local media based on each state. We also operate NewsWires for every U.S. state to help deepen your reach in the market.

EIN Presswire provides targeted distribution based on Country selection. When targeting the United States, you will also receive additional state-specific distribution based on the State listed in your byline.

To target a specific U.S. State with a press release, you will need to select the United States as your country target. Then list the desired "Target" state within the location section of our press release submission form.


Yes, EIN Presswire distributes worldwide. Our UK media distribution list is here. We also operate a UK Newswire and work with local publishers. To see other countries we distribute to, visit our world media directory and our world news wires.


We do feed into Bloomberg terminals but this will not be enough to meet SEC publicly traded company financial disclosure requirements. To get your news into Yahoo Finance you need to use PR Newswire, GlobeNewswire, or Businesswire. Yahoo Finance is an expensive pay-to-play distribution point and has solid value for publicly traded companies needing to meet financial disclosure requirements. But for SMBs/SMEs the associated cost vs impact and engagement is minimal creating a poor ROI.


We guarantee that your releases will be published on the distribution network that we control and go out through gateway services such as Google News, AP News, and on major network TV and Radio websites such as NBC, CBS, Fox, etc for republishing.

Through our world media directory, we reach journalists and editorial desks throughout the world.

Through EIN Presswire you can increase your:

  • Search engine rank
  • Brand visibility
  • Online presence
  • Business’s positive image in the market
  • Positioning as an expert in your industry niche

Most journalists use the same tools that you have available to monitor topics. These include TweetDeck for X, Facebook feeds, Google News Alerts, etc. We get you into these sources.


AP News does not accept non-English language press releases.


Most US TV Stations such as NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, and CW TV sites are IP-locked to US IP addresses. This means that if you are located outside of the US you might not be able to see your release unless using a VPN.


EIN Presswire distributes press releases in all languages. Simply target your desired audience when you create your press release.


The section on acceptable content is located here.


Yes, but it depends on whether the release is associated with a law firm or not as well as the specific topic. For legal cases, we require a law firm email to be listed on the client's EIN Presswire account or some other compelling explanation as to why it can’t be provided. (If the release is rejected we will issue a refund.)

We require full transparency. You should use a company email address and full contact details. Preferably, you should have your law firm's contact details on the release. We might call them.


Sorry, we don’t, but we do have thousands of good examples from our clients on our website. In addition, we've launched a free AI-powered press release generator. The generator allows professionals like you to save time and money by automatically generating a draft press release in as little as 10 seconds. All you need to provide is a few descriptive keywords. The drafts are generated in the best possible English. Clients can then proofread and modify the text to their liking before posting the press release.

To create a release using the AI-powered press release generator, go to: https://www.einpresswire.com/ai/press-release-generator


EIN Presswire is a great source of quality backlinks and SEO rank improvement. We are a Google News and AP News source. You’ll have permanent placement on Country, State, Region, and industry-focused newswires and TV and radio stations in the United States.

You’ll gain additional benefits just by issuing a release through EIN Presswire. You can increase your:

  • Search engine rank
  • Brand visibility
  • Online presence
  • Business’s positive image in the market
  • Positioning as an expert in your industry niche

They love our service! We’re simple and easy to use and offer great value at affordable pricing. See some of our client testimonials here.


To optimize your online presence, you should participate in more news cycles. Many of our clients issue a release once a month. This offers them an opportunity to communicate more often with the world and to build high-quality backlinks to their websites. Our Pro+ Bundle provides you with 5 press release distribution credits for one low price. Think of press releases as extended social media posts. You have a title, headline, and small update on any topic, and then attach your company or client boilerplate and contact details. Press releases do not need to be issued only for monumental announcements. They can be used for your ongoing marketing communications.


Yes. Go to the My Press Releases page and look for the RSS icon.


We have provided you with links to share. You can find them on the My Press Releases page. Next to each release, you will find social media links.


3. Pricing


Please visit our Pricing and Comparison page. Pricing ranges from $40 - $100 per release.


You’ll need to set up a free account, which only takes about 90 seconds. You can then pay by credit card or PayPal and the press release credits are immediately applied to your account and you can start issuing releases. If you already have an account and are logged in, please go to the My Press Release page and click the link to buy press releases.

If you don’t have an account, please visit our Pricing and Comparison page and click the Get Started button.


No. EIN Presswire is a pay-as-you-go service and we don’t require you to sign an annual contract or maintain a subscription. Use any press release credits within 12 months of the date of purchase. You can use them all immediately if you wish or over time. Simply buy more credits when you’re ready.


Here at EIN Presswire, we like to say we put you 90% of where you need to go at 10% of the cost. You are not subsidizing other parts of our business. We have many clients worldwide both large and small just like you.

Some key points:

  • We are a market disruptor with staff in Washington DC, Europe, and Asia and a 30-year operating history.
  • We are privately held, without large shareholders, and therefore not dependent on quarterly earnings reports to boost profits.
  • Our competition has to pay for distribution that we do not have to.
  • We are not oriented around public market financial disclosure so we don’t pay for Yahoo Finance, for example. These fees are very expensive and are passed onto clients of PR Newswire and Business Wire either directly or indirectly.
  • We don’t focus on analytics that can in many cases be gamed too easily and expensive to prepare. We focus on distribution reporting.

Our distribution is comprehensive. AP News, Nexstar, Google News, Media Lists, Newswires, Presswires, and more.

Please consider adding EIN Presswire to your standard media and marketing outreach.


Please visit our Pricing and Comparison page. This really boils down to how much news you will have to share over the course of a year. Think of press releases as extended social media posts. You have a title, headline, small update on any topic, and then attach your company or client boilerplate and contact details. Press releases do not need to be pushed out only for monumental announcements.


Press release credits are valid for one year (365 days) from the date of purchase but can be easily rolled over into a new purchase of the same level or higher for another year. You can check the time remaining for your credits on the My Press Releases page.


We offer simple, transparent pricing options with no surprises. Images are included with all of our releases. Charging for images, backlinks, 100 extra words, etc. are all means our competitors use to extract more money from you. Please see our Pricing and Comparison page.


Invoices for your orders can be found on the My Invoices page.


Refunds are available if the package was purchased within the last 60 days and less than 25% of the credits were used. Refunds will be prorated depending on the remaining credits. Please contact us through the contact form if you wish to discuss a refund.


4. Account


Please visit our Pricing and Comparison page and select the option that’s best for you. It only takes about 90 seconds to set up an account. And, it’s free. You can check out our useful tutorial videos which walk you through the process.


Not a problem. Please go to the Request New Password page and follow the instructions to create a new one.


Okay, we are here to help. Please first try to find an email we sent you. If you do not have one, please email us through our Contact Form and provide any information that will help us identify your account such as a title of a press release you have previously issued through us.


Yes, they can, but only one email address can be associated with an account. You need to share.


Newsroom feature is a dedicated page on EIN Presswire where all of your press releases will be displayed along with other information about your company or organization. Newsrooms will have a unique URL branded with your logo that you can refer people to from your marketing materials. It’s also great for your SEO.


You can activate your Newsroom from the My Newsroom page. Look for the “activate” link.


 Yes. All accounts receive a Newsroom.


5. The submission process. How it works.


It takes just 3 simple steps to prepare your release: create, preview, and choose a distribution. Click on the link “Submit Release” and then follow the instructions. A form will guide you through the process. It’s as easy as 1-2-3. You can always prepare a draft and save it to work on later or share it with colleagues before submitting it to for review and distribution. Please watch our short tutorial video.


You may save a press release as a draft and return to it at any time to edit it. If you've already submitted it for review but it has not yet been reviewed or distributed (this applies to scheduled press releases), you can revert it to a draft. You'll find a "Revert to Draft" link next to it on the My Press Releases page. If you find an error and need an edit after it’s been published and distributed we are always happy to make them. Please contact us.


Yes, we can help you. If the release has already been distributed, we can edit it and the edits will appear on all the versions we control through our network and distribution partners. Just send us an email through the contact form indicating the release and the changes needed. We are happy to help you.

If the release has not yet been distributed and is pending review or scheduled, all you need to do is go to the My Press Releases page and revert it to a draft. You may then make your edits and resubmit the release for review.


Yes. Each press release must be reviewed prior to distribution. Press releases must meet certain criteria to ensure that any information we disseminate is accurate, trustworthy, validated, newsworthy, and appropriate for audiences of all ages. Learn more about the editorial policy. We may reach out for more information or clarification so please keep an eye on your inbox. We do not copy-edit your release but we are always happy to make edits for you if you need something corrected.


Certainly. Please contact us through the contact form and we can get you upgraded.


To protect the integrity of our platform and our distribution network, we verify every new customer’s account before publishing any press release. This may take up to two business days. In addition, we may review a current customer’s account. We do our best to understand if the customer submitting the release is directly associated with, or has permission to speak on behalf of, the company featured in the press release. We may also review any company mentioned in a press release. To verify your account, our content moderators may ask that you provide us with additional information so please keep an eye on your inbox.


6. PR formatting


You may use 700 words with a Basic release, 1,000 words with a Pro+ release, and 2,500 with a Corporate release.


No. You must add text and images directly into the form provided in our editorial system.


You can use any location. We recommend choosing the one that best matches the content of your press release or the desired audience.


There are three areas where you can update contact information: your account, your Newsroom, and the press release contact section. This means you can keep a library of contacts for your releases. Edit your account information here. Edit your newsroom account information here. Please click here to visit your press release contact library.


Yes, you can use multiple contacts, although the form currently allows you to enter only one. The solution is to add the additional contacts directly to the body of the press release.


The title is a maximum of 120 characters, recommended max 80 characters. Do not use all capital letters, but capitalize every word except for prepositions and articles of three characters or less. Do not use exclamation marks (“!”) unless it is part of the name of the company or service.


The exact length of the X title depends on X’s requirements. The press release URL will be added automatically. This is an optional field. If you don’t fill it, a standard title will be used. If you want to add hashtags and/or other X meta tags, please make a custom title.

The characters available in an X title are limited by the X character count of 280 and the included link of your press release. On average clients will have access to ~200 characters.


Yes, we provide 3 easy-to-use anchor text link fields (maximum 75 characters). To create an anchor link, which turns text into an HTML link, type a keyword or phrase exactly as it appears in the press release into the keyword field. Then, copy the URL you want that text to link to in the URL field.

If the link isn’t working it’s either 1) the text doesn’t match or 2) the URL isn't correct. We suggest that you delete both fields and then copy and paste text from the body of the release and copy and paste the URL. You may also add additional links directly within the body of your release. The best practice would be to use only 3 links for effective SEO.


You can use a maximum of 3 anchor text links in your press release. It’s based on the best practices we follow for search engine optimization. However, you can add more URLs directly in the body of your press release. We recommend no more than 10 total links per press release.


We are a Google News Provider. Based on Google’s guidelines, EIN Presswire only allows for no-follow links in press releases, but you’ll show up almost immediately in Google Search and Google News. In 2019, Google changed their valuing system on no-follow links from Google News Publishers to not punish the publishers for following the tagging rules and thus the backlinks do have a lot of value. Our clients are very satisfied with our SEO benefits. You can read more about Google’s stance on no-follow links from publishers here on the Google Support Forums: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2019/09/evolving-nofollow-new-ways-to-identify


Iframe only works with sites that have security certificates (HTTPS) and that do not specifically block framing. Please check with your webmaster or ISP.


If the text in your link does not exactly match the text in the body of the release, this feature will not work. Please make sure you copy text directly from the body of your release. A valid URL is also required. Follow the instructions provided on the submission form. The hyperlink will only show on the first occurrence of the matching text.


Unfortunately not. EIN Presswire keeps formatting options to a minimum to ensure smooth distribution to our partners who may re-publish your press releases. Keeping it simple reduces the chance that your releases will be poorly formatted on 3rd party sites.


You can embed a quote on your press release. The maximum number of characters for the text of the quote is 200. The field for the author of the quote allows for 75 characters. Enter the text of the quote without quotation marks.


You can add images to your press release by choosing an image from your image library. They are easy to upload. By submitting any images for use with your press release you agree that you are the owner of or you have permission from the owner to use all images or videos.


  • Supported file types: JPG, PNG, or GIF.
  • Recommended image size: 1200×628 px.
  • Maximum image size: 4096×4096 px.
  • Maximum image file size: 5 MB.

The image caption limit is 270 characters.


Yes, please contact us through the Contact Form and indicate the release title, the name of the image that needs to be changed/deleted, and the name of the new image if needed for replacement. Please make sure the new image is uploaded to your image library.


Yes, you can. You may embed 1 video on each release linked to from YouTube and Vimeo by pasting its link in the field provided on the submission form.


Yes. Please make sure that you are only using links to websites that have a security certificate. They must be HTTPS. Furthermore, some sites contain “do-not-frame” (X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN) instructions in the coding. At the time you set up a release, you will find a quick test and further instructions in the section provided. If you continue to have difficulties please check with your webmaster or contact us.


 Yes, you can.


The exclamation marks should be used sparingly in headlines. They should be used only when there is strong irony in a story or an unexpected twist. For these reasons, our editorial staff may remove them from press releases before they are distributed.


7. PR timing/scheduling


For all new customers, there is a one-time account verification check that begins when you submit your first release. The verification check may take up to two business days.

After the check is complete and for all other customers who have already been checked, it generally takes about two hours to review your release prior to distribution. Press releases are reviewed during business hours.

Content moderators focus on the account information you’ve provided AND the content. Details matter. They look for sufficient information to identify you as the authorized person to submit the release and whether or not the content is suitable for distribution according to our editorial guidelines. We may reach out for more information or clarification so please keep an eye on your inbox.


Yes, you can. All press releases issued through EIN Presswire allow scheduling.


EIN Presswire’s current policy is to keep press releases hosted indefinitely on the publishing platforms we control.


Yes, you may use the same release. However, we suggest you adjust the wording in the headline and the first paragraph so that it is not flagged as a duplicity in search engines.


Yes, you can, but you must modify the title of the press release and the initial paragraph of the press release before re-submitting it for review to avoid having the release tagged as duplicate content by news aggregators and search engines. Many companies often use a boilerplate in the body of their releases describing their company and services and simply write a title and initial 1-3 paragraphs with a current message.

Example of title changes:

  1. Canadian Global Café Chain Introduces Winter Wonders to Malaysia
  2. Canadian Global Café Chain Brings Winter Wonders to Thailand
  3. Zimbabwe Can Now Experience Winter Wonders Thanks to Canadian Global Café Chain

8. Reporting


You will receive notifications throughout the submission and review process. The My Press Releases page will also show you the status of all your releases. It’s also where you will find your distribution reports.


Yes, they’re available on the My Press Releases page and we email them to you approximately two hours after your press release is distributed. We no longer provide metrics on clicks, page traffic, or engagement numbers. It is simply too easy to game these metrics with scripts or bots and we cannot guarantee the data we receive from third-party publishers is accurate. We only show what we can guarantee: where we have delivered the releases to, the targeted syndication points, and how the releases are showing in search and social media.


Distribution reports are available within 2 hours after publishing/distribution. They can be found on the My Press Releases page.


Yes, please click here.


Social media links are available only after your press release has been distributed. They will be available on the My Press Releases page.


Please go to the My Press Releases page. There is a permalink for each of your distributed press releases.


9. Deleting press releases


Yes, but the process depends on the status of the press release.

Deleting a release that is Under Review or Scheduled: You may simply click the delete link associated with your draft. It’s removed and no credit is used.

Deleting a release that has been distributed: You may simply click the delete link associated with your release. This will remove the release from EIN Presswire and the distribution network that we control. You should then use our contact page to email our Editorial Department requesting the release be RETRACTED. We will then reach out to our downstream partners and do our best to have them take the release down as well.


10. EIN Newswires


Similar to Google News, but with our own proprietary news targets, we aggregate news headlines from thousands of news sites creating one of the world's leading news indexes. We then organize the news by Country, US State, and Industry to make monitoring news across many publishers easy. And it’s free.
