Bobsguide Content Policy

The Bobsguide Content Policy delineates the guidelines for the acceptable use of the Bobsguide press release distribution service. Bobsguide posts are made available through a self-service platform, becoming public as soon as a user submits a release.

We urge you to thoroughly review this policy, giving special attention to the Prohibited Content section, to ensure your release complies with all guidelines for acceptable, relevant content before making your announcement.

Bobsguide will review each press release submission and reserves the right to remove any press release that breaches this policy, without offering credit or refund to the purchaser.

Content Policy

Bobsguide ensures each press release receives visibility, allowing Bobsguide readers immediate access to announcements the moment they are made public by companies. Bobsguide readers seek newsworthy and industry-specific updates from peer companies, trade groups, and key organizations.

To maintain the distinction between company news announcements, advertising, and editorial content, Bobsguide reviews all posts. We require that all Bobsguide users adhere to these press release publication guidelines. All accompanying multimedia (logos, photos, images, and documents) must also comply with the publication standards outlined below.

Bobsguide’s service is intended for sharing newsworthy, accurate, timely, industry-relevant, and informative company announcements with Bobsguide readers. We welcome announcements that contribute value to industry-focused business discussions. Relevant business announcements in line with this Content Policy include:

• Mergers and acquisitions
• Partnerships
• Investment news
• New products and services
• Expansions
• Financial results and reports
• Recalls and safety news
• Research report findings and insights
• Event announcements
• Talent and hiring news

Headline

Your release headline will reach thousands of our readers for 21 days across Bobsguide news sites and selected newsletters.

Headlines should contain fewer than 14 words. Bobsguide recommends starting the headline with the company name, followed by an action verb, and then the news, e.g., “Bobsguide Launches New Financial Analysis Tool.”

Dateline

The dateline marks the news’s public availability date and location.

It will be automatically formatted upon entering the city, state, and country where the news is announced.
