    Kind of looking for a similiar thing I think.

    Are there any sites out there that offer free press release services like PRWEB used to offer. Something that can stack up with the $19.95 offer on webwire.?

    Hi,
    Here is a list of some Free PR sites that you can use. I cannot claim credit for them as they were passed to me by a friend. I hope they help you.

    Good luck
    Ian

    Is there any website that offers PR submission to Free PR sites at reasonable price?

    I used to use PRWeb, but $80 is expensive and I can't put anchor text link with this package level. I notice that some free sites allow anchor text link. But it is time consuming to submit it one by one. So, I want to outsource it.

    My clients report getting the most traffic from bignews.biz, pressreleasepoint.com and pressexposure.com for the free sites.

      Hi Dana, can you give me an idea how long it will take to sumbit a press release to all these free PR sites listed on your list? Will it take an hour? Is there any method to fasten the submission process?

      Thanks!

        About two hours - which is why I generally use Big Mike's pressbot software to do it. Or you can pay a VA to do it. The most tedious part is creating all of those accounts. Once you do that, you can either use press release submission software, or pay a VA that you can hire from somewhere like elance.com.

          I've been considering getting a software set up to do it for me as the amount of press releases I am writing has increased dramatically recently. I take it you rate 'Big Mike's Pressbot'? (I'm new here but have been reading a lot of new threads and old, I take it by Big Mike you mean the poster here?)

          Does anyone else have any software they would recommend?

    Yes, Big Mike and I collaborated on the software - I think it still costs $7.77.

    If you are writing a lot of press releases you DEFINITELY want to use either software or a data entry person to submit for you. It can take three hours to submit them to all those free press release distribution sites. That's basically half a day wasted when you could be doing something a lot more lucrative and less tedious.

      Hi Dana,

      Can you point me to the link to get this software for $7.77, I did get your report before about press releases and I believe it was there also at the end of the report but I had a computer meltdown and lost the information about your press release details.

      Thanks,

      John

        Dana, I want to know the link to get that software too. This afternoon, I found a website, they say they can submit a PR to 75 free sites for $35. If it does take 2-3 hours, then $35 is not bad, right?... But I always want to find the easy and cheaper way.

        Thanks,
        Grace
