Hello, You need to contact eReleases: http://www.ereleases.com/submit.html According to through their list and their partner's, PRNewswire, list your press release will be submitted to Yahoo!, MSN.com, AOL.com, News Alert, Lycos, Alta Vista, Excite and many news sources. Below is the link to eReleases's distribution list page. Please note that eReleases page does not mention Reuters, but I did some further research and found that PRNewswire does in fact submit their releases to Reuters. http://www.ereleases.com/lists/index.html You may also find it interesting that you can submit your press release to Reuters for free. However, it seems like the eReleases option would be the better choice. View Reuters FAQ for more information: http://reuters.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/reuters.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=rCUAf4jg&p_lva=&p_faqid=25&p_created=977357913&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTE0OCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li= Thanks for the question and if you require more information regarding my answer, don't hesitate to ask for clarification.

If you are on a tight budget, then you may be interested in a way of getting your press release carried for free. M2 Communications offers an email address for free submissions. If they deem your submission newsworthy, they may choose to publish it for you in their PressWire service at no charge. From there, it may be published by Yahoo News, Reuters, or any other news agency that sees fit to do so. I have had two press releases published for free in this way, so it is possible you could have similar luck with this method (but no guarantees, of course) The free submission e-mail address, which only accepts mail with plain text and no attachments, is m2pw@m2.com They also offer a guaranteed paid placement service, but still no guarantees of getting picked up by Reuters or Yahoo News. For information on the PressWire service: http://www.m2.com/m2/m2web.nsf/1de639cfbe6f447a852568c400783fae/748b8972033e4361802568ef004bb2a6?OpenDocument Finally, some useful tips on writing your press release: http://www.quikbiz.com/store/serv_m2_rtg.asp |
