The iReach platform syndicates content to more than 1,000 websites in the PR Newswire network, as well as many of the largest social networks, including Twitter and Facebook. Plus, iReach posts content automatically to PRNewswire.com, one of the industry's most visited websites. Such widespread distribution can improve visibility on search engines including Google, Yahoo! and Bing.

"PR Newswire is the heavyweight champion of news release services, and we're excited to bring its power to Raven through iReach," said Jon Henshaw, Raven Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer. "Best of all, it's affordable—well within the budget of SEO, content marketing and PR agencies who want to get the best distribution for the money."

Content marketers can enhance their iReach releases with optional photos and videos. They can even choose to display an image on the Reuters Sign in New York City's Times Square, provided through a partnership with Times Square²,—and could add an 8 x 10 photograph of the billboard moment to share with clients.

"It's the small things that can take a client from satisfied to thrilled with your agency," Henshaw said. "The Times Square photographs are instantly impressive."

Any Raven customer can place an iReach order with Raven's Content Manager in a few simple steps. The last step includes selecting target audiences—important to make sure a marketer's message gets in front of the right people.

"We're extremely pleased to partner with Raven Internet Marketing Tools, an exciting and powerful internet marketing platform," said Michael Crumley, Senior Manager, SME Program at PR Newswire. "Raven's new iReach integration will help the online news release process work seamlessly for Raven customers, and Raven's advanced reporting adds a level of intelligence critical to a marketing campaign. Raven offers a wide range of useful tools and add-ons that make marketers more productive and more effective. We believe the iReach integration adds tremendous value and complements the existing tools provided by Raven."
