Every published article also leaves a backlink that strengthens your site's authority in search.

Questions

PR & Sponsored Articles — the questions we actually get asked.

Is publication guaranteed?

No, and we don't name specific outlets as a promise. The decision belongs to an editor, not an agency, and anyone promising guaranteed publication in a known outlet is usually talking about sponsored content — legitimate, but advertising rather than coverage, and readers can tell the difference. What we commit to: material that deserves publishing, and taking it to the right editor.

What is the difference between sponsored and editorial coverage?

Sponsored you buy, you control the wording, and it is usually labelled as commercial content. Editorial gets written because there is news in it, you don't control the wording, and it may mention things you'd rather it didn't. Sponsored is fast and certain; editorial carries more credibility and more weight in search. Choosing between them is a positioning decision, not a budget one.

What makes material publishable?

That it contains something the outlet's readers care about rather than something you care about. A product launch is not news in itself; a figure never published before, a pattern in your sector, or a local angle — those are news. A release opening with "we are pleased to announce" gets deleted before it is read.

What is it worth for SEO?

A link from a genuine news outlet is worth a great deal, but note: many outlets mark links in sponsored content as nofollow, which removes the technical benefit and leaves the presence. That is a question to put to the outlet before buying, not after.
