Is there a chance my article won’t be published on some sites?

While we strive to ensure your article is published on all the listed sites, in rare cases, certain news outlets may decline publication due to content guidelines or industry specificity. However, this happens less than 1% of the time.

Rest assured, we have a proven track record of successfully publishing articles across our network, and our team works diligently to maximize your exposure and ensure your content reaches as many outlets as possible.

Will I get more website visitors?

While getting published through our service won’t result in an immediate flood of visitors, it sets the stage for a steady, long-term increase in highly motivated traffic to your site.Here’s how it works:

  1. Long-Term Visibility: The articles published on high-authority sites stay    online, creating opportunities for potential customers to discover your brand over time. Visitors may come through as the article gets shared or surfaces in search results.

2. Highly Motivated Visitors: The visitors who come through your article are typically pre-sold on your brand and message. The voice of your PR helps establish trust and credibility, making them more likely to engage with your site and take action.

3. Building Awareness Over Time: Our service is a long-term strategy that works to enhance your online presence, build authority, and gradually attract visitors who are genuinely interested in your products or services.

This approach is not about instant results but about laying a solid foundation for sustainable growth and quality traffic.

How long does the publishing process take?

Once your article is approved, we publish it within 5 days. Approval means the content has been reviewed by our editor, finalized with no further changes required, and is ready for publishing.

The timeline for approval largely depends on how quickly you provide the necessary information. Some clients submit their intake form immediately, while others may take a few days, weeks, or even months. The faster you submit your details, the quicker we can write, finalize, and approve your article for publishing.

To keep things moving smoothly, we recommend completing the intake form as soon as possible!

How long will the news story be live?

Most news sites will keep articles live for at least 24 months, but a few outlets like Fox and NCN only guarantee three months to keep their sites fresh.

Some major news sites exclusive to the Premium and Ultimate Packages are more likely to keep their publications live well beyond the 24-month average.

For the best SEO results, we recommend ordering at least once a month.

What information do you need to write my article?

To craft a compelling news story for your brand, we need the following:

1. Your Website or Social Media Links: This helps us understand your brand and its offerings.
2. Contact Details: So readers and publishers can easily connect with you.
3. Your Article Topic: Share what you'd like the article to focus on, such as product launches, milestones, or announcements.
4. Your Goals: Let us know the purpose of the article—whether it’s to drive traffic, boost SEO, or enhance brand visibility.
5. Keywords: Provide any specific terms you'd like us to include for SEO optimization.
6. Images or Videos: You can supply visuals or even a YouTube video to embed in the article for added impact.
7. Quotes or Statements: Share any quotes from your team or brand leaders to personalize the content.

Providing these details ensures we can write an engaging, informative article tailored to your goals. The more information you provide, the more effective and polished the final piece will be!

What should my article be about?

News sites prefer articles that focus on a business announcement about your brand. Here are some topic ideas to inspire your article:

◦ Product or Service Updates: Launching a new product or announcing updates to an existing one.
◦ Website Launches or Updates: Share news about your website’s debut or significant improvements.
◦ Accomplishments and Milestones: Highlight awards, anniversaries, or major achievements.
◦ Brand Announcements: Announce rebranding, new initiatives, or strategic changes.
◦ Events: Promote upcoming events, such as webinars, trade shows, or community involvement.
◦ Location or Branch Updates: Announce a new office, store, or relocation.
◦ Financial Updates: Share investment news, funding rounds, or growth reports.
◦ HR or Staff Changes: Announce leadership hires, team expansions, or promotions.

Important Note:
Avoid including promotional text, prices, third-party brands, or public figures in your article. News sites focus on objective and informative announcements rather than direct advertising.

Can I edit an article after it's published?

No, once an article is live, we cannot edit it. So it's essential that you carefully review the article we send you and that you only provide us with articles that are ready to publish.

Do you use AI to write articles?

No, all our articles are written exclusively by our dedicated team of professional writers. We do not use artificial intelligence platforms, such as ChatGPT, for content creation. Our business policy strictly prohibits AI-generated writing, ensuring every article is crafted with expertise, creativity, and a personal touch.

To maintain high standards of quality and readability, we use Grammarly as a proofreading tool. Grammarly helps refine grammar and enhance clarity, but it does not generate content. Please note that, in rare cases, Grammarly's enhancements might trigger AI detection systems, but rest assured, the content is entirely human-written.

Can I review the article before it’s published?

Absolutely! Once our expert writers have completed your article, you’ll have the opportunity to review and approve to ensure it’s exactly what you need.

◦ Short News Story Package: Includes up to 2 rounds of revisions.
◦ Regular News Story Package: Includes up to 3 rounds of revisions.
◦ Long News Story Package: Offers unlimited revisions to ensure your article is perfect.

Our team is committed to working with you to refine and perfect the article until it meets your exact needs. We’re here to ensure your content is polished and ready for publication!

How many revisions can my article have?

Your article can go through unlimited revisions before publishing, as long as they comply with the guidelines of the publishing platform. We don’t impose any limits because we want your article to be perfect.

Will my article be published differently on each news site?

No, the same article will be published across multiple high-authority news sites. This strategy is great for SEO, as news sites often feature similar content, and search engines recognize this without penalizing for duplicate content.

Having your article and backlinks featured on a variety of reputable sites can help improve your search engine ranking and increase your online presence.

Will the publications be labeled as sponsored content?

Some news sites, like The Globe and Mail and Benzinga, do not include any "sponsored content" or "advertisement" labels, making them ideal for sharing and for use during social media verification.

However, sites like Fox may include a notice indicating that the publication was written by a third party. Additionally, some news sites may apply a subtle "sponsored content" or "advertisement" label if required by local regulations.
