Latelly I would like to take some promotion  experiments with press releases.

As this is something new for me, I would like to find a free service to send the first ones (and then go for prweb, or whatever)

Do you know of any free service that distributes press releases?

Just found some companies that send free press releases:

http://www.free-press-release.com/ Visit through proxy (which I dpn't like much)

http://www.prleap.com/ Visit through proxy

http://i-newswire.com/ Visit through proxy

With a first look, prleap sounds to be the best, as in their free plan, they send your press release to 18.000 sources. I guess that's a good start Smiley

Of course is not good like prweb who send to about 100.000 sources, but I guess you get what you pay for Smiley

most of them have the same structure:

titel / short description
1. introduction/about
2. the news message
3. conclusion / reference


but if you write on a story for more then a hour you should as Michelle to check it Cheesy

Hi Guys,

Been mainly lurking the last couple of weeks - missed this thread somehow. Had a project that took me out of "my office" and left me only about 20-30 min in early am and a couple of hours in the evening to work on my stuff.

I am hoping the project will be over today or tomorrow. Nik, I would love to work with you on promoting the new site. Can you wait for me for a couple of days, then I can give you more time and attention?

I can't right now; but I'll also report back here where some of the copywriter forums say to post releases. (I haven't been to those foums in quite a while.) I will see if there's any new places they are talking about.

I thank you both for the votes of confidence on my abilities.
