PRWeb.com,
The recognized leader in online news and press release distribution
service for small and medium-sized businesses and corporate communications.
PRWeb pioneered Free Press Release Distribution and continues to set the
standard for online news distribution. Also has a pay plan for higher
visibility (PRWeb Direct), but it is a cost per release.
I have been able
to utilize the FREE distribution with good results.
PRWeb Direct™ is the service bureau for the PR Web™
newswire. This new service maximizes online distribution by enlisting PR Web
staff experience and expertise in submitting, scheduling and optimizing
distribution. PR Web Direct offers additional services that are unavailable
through our standard PR Web distribution. These added services include same
day distribution, a simplified insertion process handled by PR Web
professionals, enhanced priority placement on PR
Web and the high visibility eMediawire
as well as other valuable offerings.

2) prepare and submit personal business profile to selected
websites (this is more time consuming than technical) - $125.00
for each one
There are sites that have existing high visibility and receives a
lot of visitors per month. It therefore
pushed a persons name and business name to the top of search
engines. I recommend at least THREE
sites to have this information posted.
3) add business to specific online directories (this is more
time consuming than technical) - $25.00
per directory
4) send out a less-detailed news release on each business that
obtains financing - $75.00
per release
via personal email lists, posting to a blog and
sending to local newspapers (if business is a startup or expanding)
plus this includes the following....
*local gov't officials, state officials, Chambers, and business
associations
*newspapers
*online discussion groups/blogs pertaining to business
5) We can also setup and/or maintain a blog for your
company or organization to use just for the purpose of promoting
the business, highlighting success stories and sharing information about
different projects of your company. News releases can then be drafted and
sent to it via email without having to visit the site to manually type it in
all over again.
Good thing about blogging is that your content is picked up via (RSS and
XML) news feeds and is highly indexed via web spidering technology. Others
can also add your RSS/XML feeds to their website or RSS Reader to get all
your posting in one place. (one-time setup fee)
