The guide
Press release distribution, explained
What a press release distribution service does, what it costs and how to get the most from it.
What is press release distribution?
Press release distribution is the process of sending a company announcement to news websites, wire feeds, search engines and journalists so it is published and indexed as news. Instead of pitching outlets one by one, a press release distribution service like World Wire syndicates your release across an established media network in a single step — then reports exactly where it appeared.
Why use a press release distribution service?
A distributed release creates credible, third-party pages about your brand: coverage your customers can find on Google, investors can verify, and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can cite. It is the fastest way to announce a product launch, funding round, partnership or new hire — and to earn “As Seen On” logos for your website.
How much does press release distribution cost?
You can send one release a month to 3 news sites with our free press release distribution plan. Paid plans start at $14.99 per release for 400+ publishers, with editorial review and a live web report included, and premium outlets such as USA Today or AP News can be added to any release. Prepaying 3, 6 or 12 releases lowers the price per release by up to 10%. Compare every plan on the pricing page or read our press release distribution cost guide.
Press release distribution for every industry
We run specialist distribution for crypto and Web3 press releases, finance and fintech announcements, SaaS launches with directory submissions, healthcare, real estate, eCommerce, events and non-profits. See all industry packages.
Is free press release distribution worth it?
A free release is the easiest way to test the process: write or import your release, get it reviewed by an editor and see it live with a web report. When you need more reach, send your next release on Basic (400+ publishers), Standard (500+ publishers with TV & radio sites) or Advanced (AP News, USA Today, Barchart and StreetInsider included).
Review, AI tools and reporting included
Every plan includes editorial review against our editorial guidelines, publishing within hours of approval, and a live web report with every link. Your dashboard includes a free AI press release writer, headline generator and guidelines checker — or use our press release writing service.
Need guaranteed coverage?
For named, top-tier publications, our guaranteed media placement desk secures feature articles, and our reputation management team helps you own your branded search results.
Questions
Press release distribution FAQ
What is World Wire?
World Wire is a press release distribution service. You write or import your announcement, choose one or more distribution plans, and pay with credits. Our editors review it, then it is published across news sites, TV & radio portals, finance platforms and industry publications — and you get a live web report with every link.
Which plan should I choose?
Start with Free (3 news sites) to try the process. Basic ($14.99) reaches 400+ publishers. Standard ($39) reaches 500+ publishers including 100+ TV & radio sites and is our most popular plan. Advanced ($169) adds AP News, USA Today, Barchart and StreetInsider. Advanced V2 ($199) covers Yahoo, Business Insider, MarketWatch and more. You can also add single premium outlets such as USA Today ($59) or AP News ($75) to any release.
How fast will my release go live?
Most releases are reviewed and published within hours. Each plan shows its typical time — for example 12 hours for Basic and Standard, about 5 hours for USA Today and AP News, and about 1 hour for DoFollow. You can also schedule a release for a later date.
Will I receive a report?
Yes. Every release gets a live web report listing each outlet that published it, with links, Domain Rating and traffic, plus CSV download. Reseller accounts can switch on white-label (unbranded) reports.
Is publication guaranteed?
We distribute to your plan’s network once your release passes editorial review. Individual publishers retain editorial control over their own sites, which is why we show the actual placements in your report. For guaranteed feature articles on specific top-tier publications, see Guaranteed Media Placement.
How long do articles stay online?
Most placements remain online indefinitely, but each publisher controls its own archive and some rotate older content. Your report captures every live link at the time of distribution.
Will a press release help my SEO and AI visibility?
Press releases build brand mentions on trusted news domains, which help search engines and AI answer engines (like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews) understand and cite your brand. Most syndicated links are nofollow, so think of releases as credibility and discoverability, not a link-building shortcut.
Which payment methods do you accept?
All major credit and debit cards (via Stripe, including Apple Pay and Google Pay), PayPal, and cryptocurrency including BTC, ETH, USDT and USDC (via NOWPayments or Coinbase Commerce). Payments are processed on the providers’ secure hosted pages — we never see or store your card details.
How do credits and release packs work?
1 credit = $1. Each plan costs a fixed number of credits. Add any amount from $10, or prepay 3, 6 or 12 releases to save 3%, 6% or 10%. Credits stay in your wallet and never expire.
What is your refund policy?
If editors decline your release, the credits for that plan go straight back to your wallet, and partial outlet rejections are refunded automatically. You can cancel a release for a full credit refund while it is still pending review. Unused credits can be refunded to your original payment method within 30 days of purchase. See our Refund Policy for full details.
