Had very high hopes based on the amazing reviews but.
Lots of 5 taco reviews pushed me to test this.
Looks promising until you actually look into it.
It has a HARO section, which now is just an advert for Featured.com - which charges monthly fees to access beyond 3 answers.
Pitch requests requires individually emailing Journalists, who may or may not answer.
I am sure this is very popular with agencies but no use to generating press releases and backlinks for entrepreneurs.
I have had no responses to pitch requests or emails since purchase.
It's a refund from me.
Edit: I am now getting inundated by Steve to change my review. Not impressed, and it makes you wonder about the 5-star reviews!
Edit: Steve continues to haunt my emails - I have tried to explain that his Press release prices are too high and he has tried to compare his with others, neglecting to compare like for like.
Due to the undue pressure by Steve have reduced to one star now.
I would avoid this.

Jan 22, 2025Hi there,
We just launched Featured as part of our pitch request database on Friday (4 days ago). Here's the email we sent announcing it: https://sh1.sendinblue.com/ajd1twzkhxpfe.html?t=1737385275991
Featured is only one of the sources we use on Pitch Requests. We chose them because we found that our users said the publish rate was the highest, sometimes approaching 80%. How about I help you review your pitch emails and see if I can help increase your publish success rate? Also, if you're not getting replies from journalists, usually that means you need to work on the pitches. We can and do help with that via our guides, email support, etc.
For the record, a 2-star review because you don't like *one* of the many sources in one of the many features of Press Ranger is pretty harsh. For any readers, I did reach out to the user to try and understand more and in this case the user berated me for doing so. Not sure how much I can do in this situation but I'm always here and trying to help.
