  • Reasonable for straightforward SEO-oriented announcements.
  • Published pricing, unlike its enterprise sibling.

Where buyers get surprised

  • !Smaller network than PR Newswire despite sharing an owner.
  • !Pickup skews toward aggregators.
  • !Feature gating between tiers is aggressive; the useful features sit near the top.

PRWeb vs buying the outlet directly

PRWeb and per-outlet pricing overlap in budget but not in outcome: one buys a syndication tier, the other buys a named publication you can show a client.
