How to submit a news article or a press release for distribution to media in Dubai, UAE, Middle East and North Africa.

Submitting a press release for distribution requires some preparation. Dubai Attracts™ through Arab Newswire™ helps with getting your news to media in Dubai, UAE and the MENA region. If you have questions, contact us. Otherwise, here are tips on what it takes to submit a press release for distribution:

1. Prepare a well-written, clear and concise press release that covers the main points of your message, such as who, what, when, where, why and how. Use a catchy and informative headline that summarizes the main point of your press release. Include a dateline, a hook, a boilerplate and your contact details.

2. Research the media landscape in Dubai and identify the most relevant and influential media outlets and journalists for your topic and audience. Use online databases and search engines, such as Bing or Google to find the contact information of the media outlets and journalists or contact Arab Newswire for media lists. Aim to find the email addresses of the editors, reporters or journalists who cover topics related to your press release.

3. Send your press release via email to the media contacts you have selected. Use a professional and polite email subject line that indicates the purpose of your email, such as “Press Release: [Your Headline]” or “For Immediate Release: [Your Headline]”. Include a brief introduction in your email body that explains who you are and why you are sending the press release. Attach your press release as a PDF or Word document and include any relevant images or links in your email. Indicate if you are available for interviews or comments and provide your contact details.

4. Send your press release at least two weeks before your event or announcement date, preferably in the morning or early afternoon. Avoid sending your press release on weekends or holidays, as most media outlets are closed or have reduced staff. Follow up with a phone call or another email after a few days to confirm if they received your press release and if they are interested in covering your story.
