PR & Media Placement Packages: Pricing & Services
Our PR packages, priced by what the article is for. From a $1,000 entry unit to Forbes-tier flagship coverage, with published examples you can check.
Each of the first three tiers has a $1,000 entry unit — the same shape as our Reddit packages.
| Tier | Package | Price | What you get | SEO effect | Affiliate effect | PR effect | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | SEO Play | $1,000 | 4 articles on DR 70-79 local and vertical partner outlets (SF Bay Area Times, Stanford Tech Review, Tech Forum, Best in 2026). Dofollow, indexed. | Medium | Low-medium | Low | Example |
| B | Traffic Play | $1,000 | 3 articles on DR 80+ high-traffic tech/business media (Analytics Insight, TechBullion and similar). Dofollow, indexed. | Medium-high | High | Medium | Example |
| A+B | SEO + Traffic | $1,500 | 5 articles: 3 on the DR 70-79 local and vertical partner outlets and 2 on DR 80+ high-traffic tech/business media, so one buy covers both the citation layer and the reader layer. Dofollow, indexed. | Medium-high | High | Medium | Example |
| C | PR Play | $1,000 | 2 announcement campaigns. Each one release, distributed across high-value DR 87-92 domains (AP News, Business Insider Markets, TED-Ed, Dev.to, Genius), so a single campaign lands on several sites at once. Part of that list is guaranteed placement; the rest we pitch, which means we submit the release but the outlet decides whether to run it. Usually nofollow, but indexed. | Low | Low | High | Example |
| D | Flagship | from $3,500 per placement | 1 placement on a Tier 1 domain (Forbes and peers). Dofollow, indexed. | High | High | Very high | Example |
| Full | Full service | $3,000 | A + B + C (9 articles), plus submission to 100+ developer, product and industry directories. Submission is not inclusion: directories approve on their own schedule, so we guarantee the submission count and hand over the list. | High | High | High | - |
The SEO tier is the one to use when you want to own a single keyword. Rather than fighting for one position, the product page and several supporting articles occupy the results page together, so whichever result the reader trusts, they land on the same answer. That effect is only available in the tier where articles are cheap enough to run several at once.
Reading the effect columns. Want to be found and cited: tier A. Want people to arrive and buy: tier B. Want to be seen and believed: tiers C and D.
"PR" gets used for both, and they behave nothing alike. Knowing which one you are buying is the difference between a link that compounds and a wave of coverage that peaks in a week.
| Dimension | Guest post (editorial placement) | Press release (announcement distribution) |
|---|---|---|
| Shape | An article: how-to, comparison, round-up. Written to be read and cited later. | An announcement: funding, launch, partnership, data. Written to be picked up now. |
| Byline | Yours or the outlet's writer | The company, as a corporate statement |
| Gatekeeper | A real editor accepts or rejects it | Distribution is guaranteed once accepted into the network |
| Link | Dofollow on the outlet's main domain | Often nofollow, and sometimes no link at all |
| Shelf life | Permanent, and keeps earning search and AI citations | Front-loaded: most of the value lands in the first week |
| Reach | One outlet, the right readers | Many domains at once, including aggregators |
How our tiers map. The SEO and Traffic tiers are guest posts, which is why they carry the dofollow guarantee and why we talk about them in terms of rankings and AI citations. The PR tier is announcement distribution across high-DR news and community domains, bought for reach and third-party credibility rather than link equity. The Flagship tier is a guest post again, on a Tier 1 domain.
Neither replaces the other. An announcement with no library of citable articles behind it gets one week of attention and leaves nothing; a library with no announcements never gives an editor a reason to write about you.
We run this playbook on our own software before we sell it, so every example below is something we placed for ourselves and can be checked right now.
| Tier | Example | What it demonstrates |
|---|---|---|
| A SEO Play | Best AI Presentation Tools for Lawyers and What Is the Best AI Slide Tool for Law Firms? | Both rank on page one for the same legal-vertical keyword, alongside our own product page at the top. Three of the visible results on one search, from one campaign. |
| B Traffic Play | Top 11 Best AI Presentation Makers for Google Slides, Ranked for 2026 | Inclusion in a ranked round-up on a DR 80+ outlet that carries real organic traffic of its own — readers arrive, not just crawlers |
| C PR Play | Launch coverage of *How to Win GEO* | A genuine announcement written as news and placed as news, which is what the PR tier is for — it needs an actual event behind it |
| D Flagship | Forbes Business Council member profile | The membership path onto a Tier 1 domain — the highest-authority placement available without a newsroom pitch |
One campaign, two results: the search position and the AI answer

Our content helped ChatSlide rank number one for "AI slide legal", with our Tech Forum placement sitting right behind it at number two. Above both, Google's AI Overview names ChatSlide in its answer.
That is the whole argument for the SEO tier in one screenshot. The same article holds a position on the results page and gives the AI answer a third-party source to cite, which is a job your own product page cannot do for itself.
Republication: the effect nobody can sell you
In May 2026 we placed a Betta Neo review on SF Bay Area Times. Ten weeks later, with no pitch, no press release and no payment, BGR (DR 82) found that review on its own, cited it by name as a source, and gave the product its own section in a round-up. AOL.com (DR 91) then republished the BGR piece in full, alongside three other sites, each keeping the link back to the original review.
Seven additional outlets ended up carrying the content, from one paid placement. This is an additional effect, not a deliverable: we do not price it, promise it, or count it toward your article quota. It happens when a placement is written well enough that other editors treat it as a source, and it is the reason the writing standard matters more than the outlet count.
Why the SEO tier costs less per article than market rate
Buying one placement on one named DR 70-79 outlet runs $500-1,200, because it includes writing, pitching and follow-up for an outlet we may have no standing relationship with. The SEO and Traffic tiers are bundled rates against partner outlets we publish on continuously — same editorial standard, same DR band, but you do not name the specific outlet in advance.
PR and Reddit answer different halves of the same question. PR gives AI systems a citable third-party source; Reddit gives them the community consensus they weight heavily.
Our full-service Reddit package already bundles PR articles for this reason — if you are running both, start there rather than buying the SEO tier separately.
