Reaching American readers, journalists and investors starts with getting your news onto the sites they already read. King Newswire’s US press release distribution sends your announcement to US business, finance and local news outlets, then gives you a report showing exactly where it was published.
Whether you are a US company, or a business abroad entering the American market, you can choose a package that matches your goal and budget, from a simple online launch to placements on Yahoo Finance, AP News and Business Insider.
Where Your US Press Release Can Appear
Our US distribution network covers national business sites, financial news portals and hundreds of local TV and radio station websites. The outlets you reach depend on the package you choose. Each package on our plans page lists its outlets and placement count before you order.
- Financial and business news: Yahoo Finance, MarketWatch, Morningstar, Benzinga and Street Insider
- National news: AP News, Business Insider and USA TODAY (available on request)
- Local TV and radio sites: station websites affiliated with networks such as FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC and CW across US cities
- Search and news platforms: Google News, Yahoo and Bing News inclusion with most packages
- Public companies: Nasdaq placement is available for publicly listed companies on selected packages
Logos and outlet names show where our network can publish. Publication on a specific outlet is guaranteed only when your package includes it.
Who Uses Press Release Distribution
- US startups and small businesses announcing a launch, funding round or new location. See our startup press release service.
- International companies entering the US that need visibility with American customers, partners and media.
- Agencies and PR teams that distribute releases for several clients and need clear reports for each campaign.
- Public and pre-IPO companies sharing financial updates, partnerships and leadership changes with investors who follow Yahoo Finance and MarketWatch.
How It Works
- Choose your package. Compare outlets and prices on the plans page. Budget packages are listed alongside premium Yahoo Finance and Business Insider packages.
- Submit your release. Upload a finished release, or ask our writers to prepare one from your details. Our guide on how to write a press release explains the standard format.
- Editorial review. Our editors check your release against our content guidelines. Review takes up to 24 hours.
- Distribution. Once approved, your release is published across the outlets in your package, usually within 24 to 48 working hours.
- Publication report. You receive a report in Excel and PDF listing the sites that published your release, with live links.
Tips for Reaching a US Audience
- Write for American readers. Use US spelling, US dollar figures and US date formats if your main audience is in the United States.
- Use a US dateline. Start with the city and state your news relates to, for example “AUSTIN, Texas”. Read more on why your dateline matters.
- Time it for US business hours. Releases that go live on a weekday morning Eastern Time are more likely to be seen by editors and readers on both coasts.
- Lead with the news. Put the main announcement, the who, what, when and where, in the first paragraph.
- Add a real quote and contact details. Journalists look for a named spokesperson and a way to reach your team.
What US Distribution Can and Cannot Do
A distributed press release puts your news on established US sites, creates search-indexed pages that mention your brand, and gives journalists a clear source if they want to cover your story. It does not guarantee that a journalist will write an independent article, and most links in syndicated releases are nofollow. The value comes from visibility, credibility and a public record of your announcement. Our guide on whether press releases help SEO explains this in detail.
