Ask HN: Press Release is it worth it?

It can be helpful for SEO. If you want real media attention, you'll need either a) great social proof, b) a hot product, or c) amazing relationships (in which case you won't need a press release.)

Well if you want an alternative, I launched http://www.bulletinburst.com yesterday.

Just signed up. Where's a good place to leave feedback?

Hi. You can mail me at pawel {at} bulletinburst dot com or post some suggestions on http://www.bulletinburst.com/vote/suggestions.php

No. Just write a human-accessible post on your company blog. No one likes to read a press release. Not users and certainly not the press.
