Content Submission & Review Process
Content moderators review all press releases prior to distribution.

It generally takes about two hours to review your release prior to distribution. Contentis moderated 18 hours per day. How quickly the release is approved depends on thetime of the day and the day of the week. It will take longer on the weekends. 

In order for a press release to be approved, it must meet certain criteria to ensure thatthe content is accurate, trustworthy, newsworthy, validated, and appropriate foraudiences of all ages. Learn more about EIN Presswire’s editorial guidelines here.

If your press release gets declined or if you are asked for clarification, you are welcome
to revise it and resubmit for re-review. Press release credits are only deducted once thepress release has been approved.

If you submit a press release during the weekend and if your release doesn’t pass theapproval process on the first review, you’ll have to wait until Monday for a supervisor toprovide a further review. 

Content moderators focus on the account information you provide AND the content.
Details matter. They look for sufficient information to identify you as the authorized
person to submit the release and whether or not the content is suitable for
distribution according to the editorial guidelines.

Edits, Before and After Distribution
Typos sometimes happen. There’s no need to panic.

After your press release has been approved for distribution, it will be distributed
immediately if that’s what you’ve selected, or at the time and date you’ve scheduled. 

At any point prior to distribution, you may revert the release to draft mode and edit
your release. After you save your changes, you will have to resubmit it for review. 

If you find a typo after distribution, minor text edits can be made for you. These edits
will appear on the distribution points EIN Presswire controls. However, some third
party publishing partners will not update content once published. It is possible toretract the press release and resend a corrected version. Retracted press releases are
not subject to a credit reimbursement. 

Key Point
Before distribution, you can make edits in draft mode and resubmit for revie
After distribution, minor edits can be made for you such as fixing typos
Edits made after distribution will only show on press releases within the networ
After distribution you may ask for the release to be retracted

were very competitive. I definitely intend touse EIN Presswire again.
