Story, Mission, Vision
MyPressportal is geared towards the Southern African Market
How it started
Before MyPressportal, a free press release platform did not exist in South Africa. Recognising this gap, we created a system where users can register and submit their press releases quickly and effortlessly. As South Africa’s online landscape continues to grow, many businesses have yet to make the most of tools such as a FREE press release portal like ours.
We have a dedicated editorial team reviewing every submission to ensure it aligns with the PRESS CODE OF SOUTH AFRICA, maintaining quality and credibility.
Established in 2002, MyPressportal is one of the oldest free press release systems in South Africa. Over the years, we’ve built a thriving community of users who understand the power of professional press distribution.
How it works
A press release can have a huge impact on your organisation’s marketing efforts. Journalists frequently rely on press releases to stay informed about new developments from all types of companies and NGOs. By using MyPressportal, you can ensure your news reaches the right audience.
MyPressportal is FREE – and we intend to keep it that way. To learn more about how our system works, feel free to read our FAQ.
