We are NOT the new kids on the block. We are the oldest and most respected company that sends press releases directly to journalists. We should not be confused with the inexperienced start ups who have copied our web site and try to pass themselves off as experts. Press release distribution takes experience and know how, not just a fancy web site. When we distribute your press release, we will be using the same techniques and technology that we use to get customers on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and New York Times. We have listed some of the features that make us unique and the best choice for press release distribution: 1. WE GET RESULTS No other press release service has had as many customers on CNN, Fox News, New York Times and other large media outlets. Whether your goal is to have great placement in Google News, a trade publication or an international news program, we have been there before. 2. WE REACH PRINT, BROADCAST AND ONLINE MEDIA All press releases go to reporters and editors at newspapers, magazines and trade publications as well as program directors and news desks at TV, cable TV and radio programs. All press releases also go online and into all search engines. We provide very thorough and comprehensive distribution. 3. HIGHLY TARGETED DISTRIBUTION We have more than 801,284 media contacts worldwide. All journalists in our database are separated into 507 different categories. We are able to reach only the journalists that want to receive the news on your topic. Whether your press release is about business or bio-tech, we will reach the most receptive journalists. 4. ALL PRESS RELEASES ARE SENT FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS All press releases are sent directly to a custom list of journalists who cover the topic of your press release by email. We also post all press releases online so they get into Google News and other search engines. Press releases also go out by RSS feed and the AP Satellite feed. 5. PROOF OF OUR HIGH SUCCESS RATE We are the only press release service that actually puts links to our customer's newspaper articles and TV appearances below their testimonial. We have 10X as many testimonials as any other press release service. Why don't other press release services offer proof that their testimonials are accurate? 6. EXPERIENCE AND REPUTATION We have pioneered the direct-to-journalist press release industry. There are a lot of cheap imitations, but we are the originals. 7. HUGE RETURN ON INVESTMENT Even if none of the newspapers or TV stations respond to a press release, the traffic and SEO benefits are always more than enough to justify the expense. When taking the cash value of newspaper space and TV airtime into consideration, we provide our customers with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of publicity each year. 8. ALL WORK DONE IN-HOUSE A lot of other companies simply re-sell another company's service. It never makes sense to buy from a middle man when you can go directly to the source. 9. WE REACH JOURNALISTS DIRECTLY BY NAME Most press release services simply post press releases online, and that is it. We send press releases directly to individual live reporters, editors, program directors, etc. 10. THE LATEST IN SEO TECHNOLOGY AT MMDNEWSWIRE.COM We have spent a very large amount of time and money developing our news site where press releases are posted and made available to journalists and other news sites. From meta tags, SEF URL's, social bookmarking, RSS feeds, i-Frames, we do not miss a trick. 11. HIGHLY TARGETED GEOGRAPHIC AREAS We can send press releases to journalists worldwide or to the local media in one small town. You choose where the press release goes when you order online. 12. INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION TO 193 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES Whether your press release needs to go to a small town in Illinois, a small town in Russia or worldwide, we have media contacts there. 13. LINKING TO VIDEO PRESENTATIONS AND MEDIA KITS We not only allow but encourage our customers to link to video presentations and media kits in order to give journalists more information. 14. ALL PRESS RELEASES SENT ONE-AT-A-TIME, NOT GROUPED TOGETHER Press releases are sent one at a time and never grouped together. We do everything that we can to maximize results. 15. MORE THAN 801,284 MEDIA CONTACTS WORLDWIDE We have more than 801,284 media contacts worldwide. All journalists are broken down into the topics that they cover. This allows us to reach the journalists that are interested in seeing your press release. 16. PROOF OF DISTRIBUTION Once we send your press release out, we send you a list of who received the press release and also links where you can see the press release online. 17. HIGH SEARCH ENGINE RANKINGS We often have our press releases rank higher in the search engines than our customers' own web site. Normally press releases show up in a Google web search within one hour of the release going out. As links to the press release are built, the Google rankings improve. 18. PRESS RELEASES STAY ONLINE FOREVER Once we post your press release online, we never remove it. Other services keep press releases online for only a month. 19. WRITING SERVICE It is very common for us to send two press releases to a very similar media list and get a big response from one and no response at all from the other. In fact, we usually know which one is going to work and which one will not. The response depends on how well-written the press release is and what strategy or angle is used. We send out thousands of press releases each year and get a very good feel for what works and what doesn't work. We use this experience to craft press releases that work. 20. TESTIMONIALS AND SUCCESS STORIES We love to brag about the success of our customers. We have 10X as many customer testimonials as anyone else, and all of them are unsolicited.
