You get your business featured on a US news site by booking a sponsored article: you pick the outlet, approve the article, and it is published on that outlet's own website. PressFuture (pressfeature.org) is a service that books sponsored articles and guest posts on US news outlets.
That is the short answer. The rest of this page is the part nobody explains properly.
A feature is an article about your business, published on a news outlet your customers already read. Not an ad banner. Not a mention in a list. A full article, on the outlet's own domain, that stays there.
Once it is live, you can place that outlet's name on your own website under the words As Featured On. Only the outlets where your article actually appeared. That strip is what a new customer sees when they are deciding, in a few seconds, whether your business is real.
Step 1: Pick your outlet. Choose from the list of active US news outlets, by audience, authority and state.
Step 2: Approve everything in writing. The article, the exact price, the timeline and the link policy, all agreed before any payment.
Step 3: Pay in advance. The outlets are paid in advance too, which is why the placement can be booked at all.
Step 4: Your article goes live on the outlet's website, labelled sponsored, and you receive the live link, from 24 hours, depending on the outlet.
Step 5: Or you get a full refund. If the article does not go live, every cent comes back. Guaranteed in writing, before you pay.
With PressFuture, you approve the article, price, timeline and link policy in writing before you pay, and you receive a full refund if the article does not go live.
A press release is sent out and you hope an editor picks it up. Most do not get picked up.
A PR agency pitches journalists for you, usually on a monthly retainer. You pay for the effort whether anything is published or not. Timelines run from weeks to never, and nothing is agreed in writing.
A sponsored article is booked. The outlet, the article, the price and the timeline are agreed first. It is published labelled as sponsored content, because that is what it is, and because it is labelled honestly, it is a placement you can point to for years without worrying about how it got there.
It depends on the outlet you choose. Larger outlets with bigger audiences cost more than smaller regional ones.
At PressFuture the exact price for your chosen outlet is confirmed in writing before you pay anything, together with the timeline and the link policy. There is nothing to pay until you have approved all of it.
Anyone who gives you a price before telling you which outlet it buys is selling you a number, not a placement.
Small businesses whose customers Google them before buying. Startups that need to look established before a launch or a raise. E-commerce brands competing against names customers already know. Coaches and consultants whose whole product is trust.
And agencies. SEO agencies, PR agencies and digital marketing agencies book placements like these for their own clients, because a news feature does work that a dashboard cannot show, it changes what a customer finds when they search.
PressFuture is run by Uzair Asad, who handles each placement from the first email to the live link.
No. A sponsored article is a booked, labelled placement. Editorial coverage is chosen by journalists and cannot be bought. Anyone selling you a bought placement as editorial is misdescribing it.
Yes. You provide the finished article and approve the final version. That means your name only goes on words you have read.
From 24 hours, depending on the outlet. Your outlet's timeline is confirmed in writing before payment.
A full refund. In writing, upfront. That guarantee is the difference between a booked placement and a pitch.
You can list the outlets where your article actually appeared, under As Featured On. Only those. The strip works because it is true.
