EIN Presswire will review your press releases before distribution. Attention to the following guidelines will help your press release get through the process quickly.

All press releases must contain a clear, timely and newsworthy angle and be free of advertising hype, direct address, and spam. Press releases should incorporate the following features/qualities:

Newsworthy Content: Common news angles include timely information about a new product or service, business expansion or recent event, an organizational or a community milestone like an anniversary or award or the issuance of a tip sheet or expert opinion on a topic currently in the news. The news announcement must be clearly stated in the headline.
Objective Tone: EIN Presswire press releases should be free of hype flags and direct addresses (i.e. “you,” “I,” “we,” etc.) unless used within a quotation from a spokesperson from a company or organization. Direct address is a flag that the content is an advertisement rather than a news release. Similarly, hype flags — exclamation points; hyperbolic product/service claims; descriptions of a product or service as AMAZING, or the use of upper case characters to create emphasis — challenge the credibility of your news announcement.
Legally Accurate: EIN Presswire requires a case number, court of record, complaint number or other sufficient documentation for all press releases referencing legal action or criminal matters.
Financial Topics/Cryptocurrency: Any financial-related topics including but not limited to Cryptocurrency, NFT, etc. must provide full transparency for verification, including contact information and postal address is to be on the website(s) and/or social media pages.
Valid Contact Information: EIN Presswire press releases must contain a valid contact name, phone number, and email address in the contact information.
Written Authorization: In certain cases, such as with network marketing companies, with the use of a stock ticker symbol, or with major corporate announcements such as (but not limited to) those related to M&A, EIN Presswire may require written authorization from a company executive before a press release is approved for distribution. Independent representatives of network marketing companies, MLM or party plan companies must always obtain the express consent of the company’s executive.
Standard Length: EIN Presswire press releases should be between 300 and 800 words. The length of your release directly affects its distribution, and press releases that are overly short or long may have trouble being indexed in search engines.
Standard Grammar and Spelling: EIN Presswire press releases should be free of spelling and grammatical errors. Although jargon and acronyms are commonplace in natural language, make sure to include definitions for industry jargon so the average person can understand as well.
Formatting: EIN Presswire press releases cannot contain HTML tags and other formatting such as non-standard characters, tables or forced line breaks. Releases also should not be written partially or entirely in all capital letters. Before submitting your release, please ensure all links in your release are fully functional. If your website is not available or fully functional at the time of editorial review, you will need to remove the links from your release or wait until the website is in operation to submit.
A Clear News Source: EIN Presswire requires a clear news source to be identified in the headline. The news source is the company or organization that is issuing the release. If your agency, firm or business is distributing on behalf of a client, then the source would be the client’s company or organization’s name. It should also be clear how that company or organization relates to the news announcement.
Email Addresses: EIN Presswire does not recommend the use of email addresses within the body of the press release. If an email address is included, our editorial team will modify the email address to be in this format Name (at) example (dot) com.
Accepted File Types: EIN Presswire only accepts releases containing images with the following extensions: .jpeg, .gif, .png.

2. Excluded Content

EIN Presswire does not distribute:

Advertisements: If your press release is primarily aimed at selling a product or service, then it is an advertisement and not a press release.
