      Hi can anyone recommend any news sites that you can gain links from submitting your news. I did find a really good one where you can write a whole news story or share a news story and it generated a lot of traffic but shockingly i have lost the address of the site.

      Any recommendations would be great

        We sometimes use PRWeb for any company news or press releases and they're generally pretty good. They then submit to Yahoo News, Google News, etc.

        Although it's a paid service (although not that expensive) We achieved the most visits and clicks through them than using any others.

        There's a lot of other sites and PR sites about that do it for free, such as freepressreleases.com (I think), so you might want to look them up.

          Hi there - well if you have any garden/home/eco/design related websites gardenbeet.com will write you an article and post it on its website - there is a small admin fee of £9.99 - but the website has to do good, look good or offer something good

            The site that i was looking at was a very good free one, but then i went on holiday and lost the name of the site. I have to agree prweb is very good

              Here's some free ones we've used before;

              www.prlog.org

              www.onlineprnews.com

              www.ukpressreleases.co.uk

              www.free-press-release.com

              bignews.biz

              pr-inside.com

              pressbox.co.uk

              Was it any of them?

                Hi shelly, no it was not but thanks. The site allowed you to either write a full story with a link to your site or just part of the story and allow people to read the full story on your site. The dashboard for the site was on the right and that is all i can remember about it.

                I am searching the net at the moment because i found it the night before i went on holiday and thought it was great and was going to post it on here about the site with a review but when i got back from spain i lost the paper with the details on.

                    Don't you have browser history? 🙂

                    Or alternatively, have you checked your google search history?

                        PRNewswire is by far the best although it can be quite pricey 😞
