Release Wire - #7 of Top Press Release Services

Release Wire

Daniel Jones created ReleaseWire in 2005 after he became overly annoyed with excessive spam press releases, which muddied over the few potentially relevant releases. His idea was to create a place where journalists and companies could communicate based on what was important to them. This, he reasoned, would decrease the likelihood of any sort of junk press releases taking attention from those that actually deserved it. The site has seen success in that effort, and it is now a trusted resource for targeted news releases. ReleaseWire includes several services that go beyond a simple press release platform. They have a publisher for press releases, several newsrooms hosted by live people, analytical services, distribution of multimedia, and even customer relations management for media. The site is used by over 70,000 organizations and companies throughout the world. They are well known for their comprehensive research skills and their ability to maintain positive relationships through media.
