A LOT of the press release services you see out there are not REAL press release services. That is, they only post your release online or to feeds or to “consumer subscribers”. I went with OfficialWire because they actually send your release to members of the press who are interested in receiving news from your industry and are looking for news ideas. Also, the cost of Official wire is not prohibitively expensive for my small business to justify. I’ve used them a couple of times now and like the results, so I plan to keep using them.
First off, the price shown above (34.99) is in UK pounds…it’s actually about $60 per month. I’ve used this service about a year…the upload is a bit confusing, and the owner is rude if one asks questions. Initially, I put up with it due to price, but I’m now reconsidering, as I’ve not seen good pickup from the distribution. The “tracking system” they tout has been in Beta for over a year, and the search engine options they offer usually turn up 0 results. Not professional.
I’ve been using OfficialWire for about a year now, and the tracking service it touts does not seem to work. I don’t see a lot of pickup of the releases either.
Thanks for the Reviews folks..I won’t use them either!
I tried yesterday to issue a release through officialwire. A disappointing experience I am sorry to say. After paying my 20 british pounds and receiving a login and password, there is no way to actually upload one’s release. Everytime you click on the ‘submit release’ link it asks for another 20 pounds.
Sent them a message to this effect have not heard back.
