PressWire.ie is Ireland's only domain-verified press release platform that delivers real SEO value through quality backlinks
Founded in 2025, PressWire.ie was born from a simple frustration: Irish businesses were paying hundreds of euros for press releases that provided zero SEO value and took days to publish.
We built PressWire.ie to solve three critical problems:
Backlinks are links from one website to another. When PressWire.ie links to your website, it's essentially giving your site a "vote of confidence" that search engines like Google recognize and reward.
All our links are dofollow, meaning they pass full SEO value to your site, unlike many platforms that use nofollow links.
Links from a verified .ie domain carry more weight for Irish businesses than generic international platforms.
Industry-specific categorization means your backlinks come from contextually relevant content.
Your press release and its backlinks remain permanently indexed, providing long-term SEO value.
Pro Tip: Use custom anchor text for your main website link and include links to specific product pages or blog posts for maximum SEO impact. The more specific and relevant your links, the better the SEO value.
We verify your company email domain has valid MX records, proving it's a real business email, not a free provider.
We cross-reference with the Companies Registration Office to confirm your company is registered in Ireland.
Once verified, you receive a code via email and can immediately proceed to publish your press release.
SEO improvements typically begin showing within 2-4 weeks as search engines crawl and index your press release. However, the full impact on rankings usually develops over 2-3 months. The permanence of our backlinks means they continue providing value indefinitely.
High-quality backlinks have several characteristics: they're dofollow (pass SEO value), come from relevant content, use descriptive anchor text, originate from a trusted domain, and are contextually placed. PressWire.ie backlinks tick all these boxes, especially for Irish businesses seeking local SEO improvement.
Yes! We encourage it. You can include your main website, specific product pages, blog posts, and social media profiles. Each link provides SEO value and potential traffic. We recommend 3-5 strategic links for optimal impact without appearing spammy.
Yes, all press releases and their backlinks remain permanently published and indexed. This provides ongoing SEO value long after publication. Even if you unpublish a PR, search engines will have already indexed the links.
Domain verification ensures only legitimate businesses can publish, maintaining the quality and trustworthiness of our platform. This exclusivity actually increases the SEO value of backlinks from PressWire.ie, as search engines trust verified sources more.
Once you complete payment, your press release goes live immediately and is accessible via its permanent URL. Search engine indexing typically begins within hours, and full indexing usually completes within 24-48 hours.
Yes, you have a 24-hour window to make edits after publication. This includes updating content, links, and contact information. After 24 hours, the PR becomes permanent to maintain integrity and SEO value.
We follow GDPR guidelines strictly. Your press release is public, but personal data is encrypted and never shared. We don't sell email lists or contact information. You can request data deletion at any time (though published PRs remain for SEO continuity).
All tiers include dofollow backlinks and permanent publication.
Yes, we offer volume discounts for agencies and businesses publishing regularly. Contact us for custom packages. We also occasionally provide promotional codes for special offers and partnerships.
Absolutely! Your draft is automatically saved in your browser and persists for 7 days. You can close the window, come back later, and all your content will be restored. Perfect for getting PR approval before publishing.
Currently, you can include links to images and videos hosted elsewhere. We recommend using high-resolution images (JPEG, PNG) and standard video formats (YouTube, Vimeo links). Direct file uploads are coming soon.
An API for enterprise clients and agencies is on our roadmap for Q2 2025. This will allow programmatic submission and management of press releases. Contact us to join the early access list.
Every press release includes built-in analytics showing views, referrer sources, and click-through rates. You can access these via your management link. We also integrate with Google Analytics for deeper insights.
