GlobeNewswire DIY

With GlobeNewswire's DIY news preparation and distribution option, you really can "do it yourself."

Do you have staff to review your press releases and financial disclosures? Are your releases already formatted and ready to distribute? Do you have different disclosure needs based on the subject matter of your release? If so, DIY is the solution for you.

GlobeNewswire's DIY news and disclosure service provides you with an alternative option to traditional, editorial release preparation and distribution. With DIY, you have complete control of your press releases through a secure, client-only protected online environment. DIY streamlines the release process while reducing the costs associated with the traditional editorial release model by enabling releases to be completely created and edited independently, enhancing releases for search engine optimization, and providing options for customized distribution based on topic, focus and audience.

Increase efficiencies and maintain control

Unlike the traditional editorial model that requires you to have an editor prepare and format your releases, the DIY option allows you to streamline distribution by removing this intermediary step. Instead, quickly create and format your press releases and financial disclosures with the GlobeNewswire DIY secure online publishing tool.

Search engine optimization

Ensure your releases are being picked up by search engines to enhance the visibility of your messages. The online search engine optimization service allows you to incorporate anchor text, related links and release tags.

Website integration

Ensure all your releases are published directly on the appropriate section of your IR Website or PR Press Room hosted through our WebCenter service.

Disclosure obligations

GlobeNewswire DIY offers a single platform that supports the full range of disclosure options:

• Broad, simultaneous distribution to the media, financial analysts and individual investors
• "Notice and access" publication via your IR Website
• Fulfillment of regulatory obligations through an EDGAR filing

Improve cost effectiveness

With DIY paying per word is a thing of the past. Enjoy flat-rate pricing on the release package that best suits your needs.
