Paste your press release and we'll lay it out in proper press release format, mark what's missing, and check it against what editors look for. Any length is fine.
Paste your release and it is laid out in proper press release format, with what is missing marked. The press release seo checker side of it looks at the things editors actually reject on: length, whether there is a real quote from a named person, whether a media contact is present, whether it is written in the third person, how the links are used, and whether the structure follows the order a newsroom expects.
Usually one of three things. It is an advertisement wearing a news headline, with no event in it. It is written in the first person, so it reads as marketing copy rather than reporting. Or it has no quote, which leaves an editor nothing to lift.
None of those are hard to fix once you can see them, which is the point of running it through a press release grader before you pay for distribution rather than after.
It cannot tell you whether your news is interesting. A release can pass every structural check and still be ignored because nothing in it matters to anyone outside your company. Checking a press release before publishing catches the mechanical faults; the judgement about whether this is news is still yours.
