What is it about and what is your target audience? You've definitely missed out Press Association, which would be a decent idea

It's about my advertising network, so mainly aimed at the tech/online market.

Cheers, I'll add Press Association to the list.

And if you think you have something worthwhile for any of these tech mags, its worth following up the press release with a phone call to see if you can give them anything more.  That way they might not do what I do with lots of unsolicited press releases and hit the mark as read button...

One of the reasons I'm also snail mailing them, but cheers for the advice.

Right, that's all of them mailed (sent 1st Class yesterday) and emailed (today). Embargoed until Monday.

Anything could happen. Nothing could happen. I'll have to wait and see.

Sadly, zero coverage.

No-one in the tech industry seems to care unless you're Google. Roll Eyes
