  • Media Monitoring

Media monitoring is an essential tool when distributing press releases. You need to listen to the conversations happening around your content like what is being said about it, or how your audience perceives it. It is also listening to the sentiments, finding trends in the industries, and monitoring media coverage.

Media monitoring is part of monthly and annual plans. You can get saved alerts, access to Newswire article archive, news clipping, sentiment analysis, and real-time tracking, depending on the monthly plan you plan to get. It is also available for subscription at $649 per month.

If you get this feature, you can track news globally without the need to do much effort. The site partners with LexisNexis to bring the latest news happening across the web, broadcast, and print media in 100 countries. You can filter topics easily with its comprehensive keyword filter.  

If you get this feature, you’ll be notified via SMS and email as relevant stories hit the wire in real-time. You can have access to 15+ million stories available in the archive. Most importantly, you can receive detailed reporting about content sentiments.  

With the news clipping feature, you can save campaigns for your future needs. An easy share button allows immediate sharing of your data with your team.
