FAQsHow much is the annual subscription? At £250 + VAT for the year, we believe that Newswire is the cheapest press release distribution service on the web. Are press releases only published in the online version of Business Weekly? The short answer is no, although this is the only place that they are guaranteed inclusion. Newswire has no bearing on our usual editorial processes, so releases may well still be written up by reporters for inclusion in the print edition and on the main website. What is the circulation of the emailed newsletter? As it stands around 20,000. Are all press releases (up to the maximum of three per week) guaranteed inclusion? Yes Does the Newswire package include the ability to upload events to the events section of the Business Weekly website? Yes. Although this is already free of charge. You just need to register , log in and then 'add event' under latest events on the homepage (this option doesn't appear until you have logged in). Will I have access to visitor tracking? Yes, we have tried to make the Newswire service as transparent as possible. You can view how many views and click-throughs you have had from the business directory listing and how many times your press releases have been read from the site itself. |
