Are you launching a new product or website? Announcing a new
book, movie or seminar? Then you've probably created a press
release sharing the: who, what, when, where, how and why of
your special newsworthy item.
However, there is a lot more to a press release than just creating
one. Perhaps the most important aspect of a press release is the
distribution. The purpose of a press release is to gather media
attention. Online there are many places to post your press release.
However, if you're on a low project budget, the cost can be prohibitive
- ranging from the hundreds to even thousands of dollars.
Below, I've gathered several sites, forums and lists that will
allow you to distribute your press release for free!

where like sites are grouped together in a directory like fashion.

Also, don't forget the importance of discussion boards and online
forums. Be sure to check out the different groups offered by both
Yahoo! and MSN to see if they may be interested in getting the word
out on your new product, service or site!!
There are many avenues out there for getting the word out without
going broke! So, don't be intimidated, get started sharing the word.
You may just be surprised by the results!!
