Editorial guidelines

At King Newswire, our commitment to delivering a comprehensive array of news remains unwavering, encompassing diverse sectors ranging from commercial announcements to healthcare updates and beyond. Our core objective is to collaborate closely with each client, ensuring their digital press releases garner the utmost attention and impact. However, it is essential to establish clear editorial guidelines to maintain the integrity and credibility of the information we disseminate.

Title & summary

Ensure your headlines are succinct, using 8 to 17 words, as shorter, more precise headlines typically yield better results. Specifically for the Bloomberg + Yahoo package, maintain your press release headline under 110 characters.

Utilize active verbs and phrases to create appealing headlines.
Ensure that the headlines accurately represent the content of the press release.
Avoid using special characters/symbols like &, %, TM, @, $, # or any symbols like that.
Craft headlines that are interesting, relevant, and up-to-date in their announcements.
Clearly describe the substance of the press release in the summary.
Keep the summary concise and straightforward, with a maximum of 40 words, using only a few short phrases.

Acceptable formation of a press release

The press release must have a clear newsworthy, corporate announcement from the company.
The release also shouldn’t contain investment opinion/advice.
Press releases should maintain an optimal length, ranging between 300 to 1500 words.
Maintain objectivity and authority throughout the press release. Avoid the use of first-person and second-person conversational language (e.g., I, we, you, etc.).
Craft press releases in the style of announcements, refraining from promotional or sales-driven content.
Exclude JavaScript or other scripting languages like OL, LI, or tables from the press release. Ensure that formatting is executed professionally.
Avoid using Latin characters with diacritical marks (e.g., ā, ē, ī, ō, ū) in your press release, as they may cause issues after publication.
Only incorporate quotes from authentic sources, accurately reflecting statements made by individuals.
While videos and images can have a significant impact, that’s why we offer certain packages with unlimited video and images. However, some packages come with only one image.
Use links strategically to guide readers to further information. Adhere to the industry norm of one link per 200 words. When adding hyperlinks, please include the full URL with either “http” or “https.” Without this prefix, the link may break and redirect to the dashboard.
Always include relevant contact details within the press release, allowing interested parties to reach out for further inquiries.
Please complete the company details form, as it is a crucial component of the press release. Ensure the form includes the following information: full name of the contact person, company name, email address, country and state, and city of origin. This information provides essential context for readers and enhances the credibility of the release.
Thoroughly proofread and edit press releases to eliminate any grammatical or spelling errors, ensuring a polished final document.
Addressing XML issues is crucial, as it is a common reason for delays, non-publication of content, and problems after publication.

By adhering to these professional guidelines, the press releases will effectively convey the intended information while upholding a high standard of quality and credibility.

Company Contact Details:

Please fill out the company details form with the following information associated with the source company of the press release:

Company Name
Contact Person’s Full Name
Company Website
Company Webmail ID
City
State
Country

Do not include these company details within the body of the press release, as there is a separate form specifically designated for this information. This approach keeps the press release content clean while ensuring essential details are readily accessible.
