Where to post press releases for free?

I'm about to sign a nice affiliate agreement and no only on my website I would like to publish a press release as well. Is there any FREE websites to publish these types of releases? PR sites?

There are lot of sites where you can post your press release for free;

A quick search on Google will bring you lot of results; also, there are software for automatic submission press releases; the only problem is that the results will not be spectacular; it really depends on the news you announce and how interesting it is for the audience.

My experience tells me that not even paid press release distribution will guarantee you the success; they guarantee you exposure, but, it is up to your press release to bring you visitors an customers.

I have and never have "purchased" space for press releases. There are many ways to post your press release at no cost. Article and Website Submissions are the fastest and have a cost of $0.00. You just need to have the software to load these. You will be at the mercy of the webmaster how and when they post your article however, it will show. Just need to be sure to fill your article with keywords and phrases that best describe your company, service or product. If you need or want more info on these "Auto Submission" tools, DM me for more info. I will be glad to help you.

There are many free press release organisations. Many of them are worth it, particularly if you have back links in the press release or in the contact us information. Marketwire in the US is a paid press release service that is also good.

I've used both, and if something that isn't really "newsworthy" except for you, go with the free ones. Our site was promoting an Obama research piece and we went the paid route and ended up getting picked up by CBS and ABC for it, so it was worth the price

Hello again -

Ive been PM'd about the "auto submission" tools. I wanted to send another response so that others may see it. I would suggest going to this SITE. This is a very useful tool that allows you to create and post Article submission, press releases and website submissions to various sites (hundreds of sites in minutes). Why this is useful is that it helps Search Engine ranking based upon inbound links to your site. Based upon your keywords and site relevance, you will get higher ranking in search engines. Google will think that many other sites are linking to your because of relevance, resulting in Higher Google rank. Give it try, I trust you will see the results you are looking for without spending the high dollar for traditional Web Advertising.

The lists above are very useful. However you may want to try out those press release sites with fees. They may have charges but you can be assured of their services.
