Several years ago SBWire launched an advertising supported press release listing service with the goal of making it possible for small businesses to receive basic press release distribution services no matter their budget.

Today, SBWire offers affordable press release distribution services starting at $29.95 per month for 25 press releases or $14.95 per press release. Our new plans offer many benefits such as:

• Complete search engine optimization control and related tools
• Multimedia hosting and distribution
• Press release advance scheduling
• Media contact management with integrated email distribution
• Press release geo tagging
• And many more public relations tools and services

Many SBWire clients have already made the switch from our advertising supported package to our new monthly subscription services.

Today SBWire is announcing the retirement of our advertising supported press release listing service allowing our team to focus on adding even more features and benefits to our affordable monthly subscription packages.

Beginning today we will no longer offer our advertising supported press release distribution option to new clients. We are encouraging all new clients to try SBWire Plus which is free for 15 days.

Beginning on Friday June 1, 2012 we will no longer offer advertising supported press release listings to all SBWire clients. Current clients may upgrade their account to SBWire Plus, SBWire Pro or SBWire Unlimited along with our 15 day free trial.

Beginning on Sunday July 1, 2012 press releases submitted using our free listing service by clients who have not upgraded to a subscription plan may be removed from the SBWire web site.

We understand that many of you have relied on our advertising supported product and we are here to help you with the transition to our new plans. Please contact us with any questions you may have.
