The direct answer
Distribution is a controlled way to place a company announcement into a syndication network. It is useful when the goal is to make real news publicly openable and easier to verify. It is not the same as convincing a journalist to independently report a story.
How ReleaseFast handles distribution
- We recognize the company from its public website.
- You choose a release package and pay through Stripe.
- You supply the announcement, evidence, quotes, links and media contact.
- An assisted draft receives human editorial and claim review.
- You approve the exact release before manual distribution.
- You receive confirmed live placement links.
What makes an announcement distributable?
A real change: a launch, funding event, partnership, milestone, study, expansion, executive hire, event or award. The release needs a clear issuing entity, a factual headline, a concise summary, neutral body copy and evidence for material claims.
What distribution cannot promise
Guaranteed named placements are distinct from the wider network. Beyond those defined commitments, publisher pickup, page availability, indexing, rankings, referral traffic and AI citations vary. A network size describes the distribution channel—not a guaranteed number of publications.
Common questions
Does a 500+ network mean 500 guaranteed pages?
No. Guaranteed named placements are a defined package commitment for editorially eligible releases; the 500+ figure describes the wider distribution scope, whose endpoint mix varies.
What proof do I receive?
ReleaseFast records confirmed live placement links in the secure report after distribution.
