How does your pricing actually work?

Every plan is a one-time payment for one press release. You pay per distribution, there is no subscription, and the price shown includes images, word count and the publication report.

How long does distribution take?

Turnaround by package: Starter 24 hours, Business 36 hours, Premium 48 hours. On Premium, USA TODAY goes live 1 to 2 hours after draft approval. Your publication report follows once every placement is live.

Will my release appear in Google News?

Business tier and above include outlets that are Google News indexed. Indexing itself is controlled by Google, so we guarantee the placement rather than the index position.

Does press release distribution help SEO?

It builds brand mentions, citations and searchable coverage around your product and executive names. Treat it as authority and discoverability rather than a link-building tactic.

What is the ideal press release length?

Between 400 and 800 words. Long enough for a quote, context and a boilerplate, short enough that an editor will run it without cutting your key message.

How is this different from a traditional newswire?

Traditional newswires sell annual access and describe their reach in vague totals. We sell single distributions, name the outlets upfront, and hand you verifiable live links afterward.

Which day of the week is best to send a release?

Tuesday through Thursday are commonly preferred for business press releases, because Mondays compete with weekend backlogs and Friday releases can lose momentum. The best timing still depends on your announcement, your audience and the news cycle.

Should I choose PR distribution or paid advertising?

Ads stop showing the day your budget does. Published coverage can stay discoverable after the campaign ends, although how long each placement stays online and whether it is indexed are controlled by each publisher and search engine. Many teams run both.

Can you write the press release for me?

Yes. Writing is included in the Premium tier and available as an add-on on every other plan. You approve the draft before anything is distributed.

How much does a press release on Business Insider cost?

A Business Insider placement costs $199, one-time, per release. It is also included in the Premium package.

How much does a Yahoo Finance press release cost?

A Yahoo Finance placement costs $249, one-time, per release. It is included in the Business and Premium packages.

What is included in each package?

Starter ($149): OpenPR, Google News, StreetInsider, USA Today + 250 News Network. Business ($349): OpenPR, Manilla Times, USA Today + 250 News Network, StreetInsider, Yahoo Finance, Google News, Benzinga. Premium ($649): The Ai Journal, StreetInsider, OpenPR, AP News, USA Today + 250 News Network, MorningStar, Yahoo Finance, Business Insider, Google News, Benzinga, Manilla Times.

Is this editorial coverage or a press release?

Placements are press release distribution on the named outlets, not journalist-written editorial coverage. Every release is published as a press release, labelled as one by the outlet.

How long do the links stay live?

A USA TODAY placement stays live for about 150 to 180 days, then it is removed or deindexed. It is not permanent. For other outlets, the duration depends on the outlet, and your publication report lists the live URL of every placement.

Do you offer agency or bulk pricing?

Yes. Agencies get volume terms, white-label reports and one account for several clients. See the agency page for how it works, or send an enquiry.

Press release pricing

How TS Newswire press release distribution pricing works

One-time pricing, no subscription

Every TS Newswire package is a single payment for a single press release distribution. There is no annual newswire contract, no monthly retainer and no auto-renewal. You choose the package that matches the reach you need, pay once and receive a publication report when your placements are live.

The price on the card is the price you pay. Images, word count and the publication report are included in the package, so the number you compare against another press release distribution service is the real one.

Named outlets before you pay

Traditional newswires describe their reach in vague totals. We list the outlets in each package up front, so you can open any package and see exactly which news sites your release is submitted to. That makes it easier to match a package to your audience, whether you want finance outlets such as Yahoo Finance and Business Insider, general news such as USA Today, or a wider syndication network.

Choosing between packages and industry bundles

Smaller packages suit a first announcement, a local launch or a release where brand mentions matter more than scale. Larger packages add more premium outlets and wider syndication, which is useful for funding news, product launches and anything you want cited by journalists and AI search tools.

If you publish releases regularly, industry bundles reduce the cost per release. Agencies buying for several clients can also use our white-label agency account.

Full refund guarantee

If your release is not published across the outlets included in your package, you get a full refund. Every release also goes through a compliance review before distribution, so restricted topics are flagged before you pay rather than after.
