PRWeb is a versatile platform that has been widely used by businesses and organizations to effectively distribute press releases and generate wider reach and visibility. Users have found it particularly beneficial for issuing press releases about company news, new product offerings, and equipment or capabilities acquisitions throughout the year. With PRWeb, users can effortlessly send out press releases on a mass scale to media outlets across the country, targeting specific geographic regions or industry-relevant products or capabilities.

One of the key advantages of PRWeb is its convenience and cost-effectiveness. It provides a streamlined solution for posting news announcements without the need for additional features like graphics or specialty news wires. This makes it an ideal choice for organizations without a dedicated PR team looking to efficiently distribute press releases and reach a wider audience. Users appreciate the ease of use that PRWeb offers, allowing them to upload visuals to make their press releases more compelling.

Moreover, PRWeb has proven valuable for augmenting marketing efforts and increasing the chances of news releases being picked up by news organizations. By utilizing PRWeb, companies like Strouse have successfully amplified their content and expanded their network of qualified contacts through prospecting and pitching media contacts using tools like Cision. This software not only helps track media hits but also enables users to find specific contacts for journalists and producers while easily disseminating news releases for clients.

Furthermore, PRWeb has been instrumental in promoting higher education institutions. Small colleges have utilized this platform to connect with media outlets across the country, delivering national newsworthy stories to a broader range of publications. This wider reach ensures that these institutions gain visibility on search engines and achieve greater exposure for their important news.

In summary, PRWeb serves as an indispensable tool for organizations seeking to distribute press releases efficiently, announce relevant news, increase their visibility on search engines, and enhance their media outreach efforts. Its user-friendly interface, cost-effective nature, and ability to target specific regions or industry-specific topics have made it a go-to choice for businesses, institutions, and individuals alike.

We used Cision PRWeb to distribute national press releases and connect with media across the country. We are a small college in a mid-size market and the network of media contacts that Cision PRWeb provides allows us to cast a wide net and deliver our national newsworthy stories to publications that we would not normally have access to. The cost per release is reasonable and the network is unmatched.

I don't use PRWeb for my business, but instead as needed for my clients. It is good for when a client wants to post press releases on the wire for various news announcements. It is a nice meeting of convenience and a smart price point for no-frills news announcements - when you don't need to add pics, graphics, or need to reach specialty news wires.

Cision is used by the Digital PR arm of our organization. Cision is used to prospect and pitch media contacts in an effort to get our content and our client's content shared. Cision is critical to our media amplification efforts and has allowed our organization to scale the number of qualified contacts we pitch for each campaign we create and promote.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
PRWeb is used by our Marketing Department to push out press releases and important news. We use it to reach outside of our organization, and we do not have a PR team here. We don't have time to call local stations and try to pursue media, so this is the best way for us to get our information out. It is quick and efficient, but not as meaningful as being featured on local news.

I help clients with press releases and I sometimes advise them to use PRWeb to issue the releases. Issuing a press release using a service like PRWeb helps it get wider reach, and it will also show up on search engines. Using a wire service is one more way to leverage a press release.

I use PRWeb to publicly distribute our news releases. It's mainly used by the marketing department but is used for all major company news and announcements. PRWeb helps us get the word out about any news we have and up the chances of it getting picked up by a news organization.

PRWeb is good, but not for everyone.

We use PRWeb to send press releases about company news, new product offerings from our suppliers, and of new equipment and capabilities that we purchase throughout the year. I am the only person in my company who is responsible for marketing duties therefore I am the sole user of PRWeb at Strouse. PRWeb allows us to create press releases and issue them on a mass scale to media outlets all over the country. Often times products or capabilities that are new to our industry are only targeted to certain geographic regions and we have the ability to focus on these regions with PRWeb.
