MRC Performance
I have been in business for over 10 Years and recently moved to AGR Technology for all our IT needs. They are able to fix nearly anything remotely and always very helpful in recommending appropriate hardware upgrades that do the job as required but not costing more than needed.
Alessio provided an excellent service. He was very dedicated in his method of finding solutions to problems. He continued to try different avenues until he found the reason as to why a particular application was not working. He was very knowledgeable in his understanding of the internet and of applications and how they work, and he was able to apply this knowledge in understanding how to resolve the obstacles that continued to appear. He is understanding towards his client's needs and goals and he is willing to work with his client in achieving those goals. He is a very polite and well mannered person and very calm and gentle in his approach. I would highly recommend Alessio's services to anyone.

Alessio from AGR Technology has recently helped me create a website for my business.
Throughout the whole process from start to finish Alessio made the process easy for me, by calling me and explaining each step of the way. I'm not very computer savvy, but with Alessio taking the time to explain in detail everything I needed to know from putting inventory in to having it shipped. He even remotely joined my computer to help guide me through everything.
He's very knowledgeable and is experienced in everything I needed and if there was anything else I needed to know that wasn't something he was familiar with, he researched it.
I would HIGHLY recommend Alessio to anyone. He has not only helped me for now but I know that if I ever needed help with anything else he would definitely go above and beyond to help. Thank you so much for everything you have done. It's been a long process but well worth it 🙂

What Is Press Release Distribution in Australia?
Press release distribution is the process of sending your news announcement to journalists, media outlets, news websites, and online platforms that can publish or cover your story. In Australia, this typically involves a mix of national publications, regional outlets, industry-specific media, and digital news platforms.
Unlike a simple email blast, professional distribution services give you access to curated media contact lists, optimised formatting for SEO and readability, and the ability to track how your release performs. These services act as a bridge between your business and the Australian media landscape.
Most distribution platforms offer tiered packages based on reach, local, state-wide, national, or industry-targeted. Some also include syndication to news aggregators like Google News, which can boost your content’s visibility in search results.
For businesses that don’t have an in-house PR team or established media relationships, these services level the playing field. You get professional distribution infrastructure without needing a rolodex full of journalist contacts.
Benefits of Using Australian PR Distribution Services
Reach Targeted Media Outlets Across Australia
Australian media is fragmented, there’s no single outlet that reaches everyone. From metro mastheads like The Australian and Sydney Morning Herald to regional papers, trade publications, and digital-first platforms, your story needs to land in front of the right people.
Distribution services have built relationships with these outlets and maintain up-to-date contact lists across industries. Whether you’re targeting tech journalists in Melbourne, finance reporters in Sydney, or regional business editors in Queensland, the right platform gives you that reach without the legwork.
Improve Search Engine Visibility and SEO
When your press release gets picked up by news sites and syndicated across platforms, it creates valuable backlinks to your website. These links signal authority to search engines, which can improve your rankings for branded and industry-related terms.
Many distribution services also publish your release on their own high-authority domains, which can appear in Google News and standard search results. This means your announcement isn’t just reaching journalists, it’s reaching your audience directly through organic search.
Well-optimised press releases include strategic keywords, hyperlinks, and metadata that help both search engines and readers find your content. This dual benefit, media outreach plus SEO lift, is one reason distribution services remain a cornerstone of digital PR.
Amplify Your Brand Awareness and Credibility
Being featured in recognised media outlets builds trust. When potential customers, partners, or investors see your name in a news article or press release on a reputable platform, it adds legitimacy to your brand.
Distribution also gives you control over the narrative. Instead of waiting for a journalist to cover your story (or misinterpret it), you’re putting your message out there in your own words, then amplifying it through credible channels.
For startups and growing businesses, this visibility can open doors. Media coverage leads to inbound enquiries, social proof, and opportunities you wouldn’t have accessed otherwise.
Best Practices for Press Release Distribution Success
Craft Newsworthy and Compelling Content
Journalists receive dozens (sometimes hundreds) of press releases every day. If yours doesn’t offer genuine news value, it won’t get picked up.
Focus on what’s new, interesting, or relevant to the audience. Launches, partnerships, major hires, awards, research findings, and industry commentary all work well. Avoid pure promotion, media outlets aren’t ad platforms.
Your headline should be clear and engaging. The opening paragraph must answer who, what, when, where, and why. Include a strong quote from a senior leader or expert, and keep the total length under 500 words if possible.
At AGR Technology, we help clients refine their messaging and structure their releases for maximum impact. A well-written release is the foundation of successful distribution.
Target the Right Categories and Media Contacts
Don’t blast your release to every journalist in the database. Precision beats volume.
Choose categories and outlets that align with your story. If you’re announcing a fintech product, target finance and technology journalists, not lifestyle or sports reporters.
Many distribution platforms let you customise your recipient list. Take advantage of this. The more relevant your contacts, the higher your chance of coverage.
Timing matters too. Avoid releasing news on Fridays or during major public holidays. Mid-week mornings tend to perform best, as journalists are planning their coverage for the day.
AGR Technology manages targeting and timing as part of our distribution service, ensuring your release reaches the right people at the right time.
Conclusion
Australian press release distribution services give businesses a powerful way to reach media outlets, boost SEO, and build credibility, without needing an in-house PR team or years of media relationships.
The right service depends on your goals, audience, and budget. Focus on platforms with quality media databases, strong analytics, and distribution channels that match your needs. And remember: your press release itself needs to be newsworthy, well-written, and strategically targeted.
At AGR Technology, we specialise in helping Australian businesses craft and distribute press releases that get noticed. From choosing the right platform to writing compelling content and tracking performance, we handle the details so you can focus on what you do best.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does press release distribution improve SEO and search visibility?
When press releases are published on news sites and syndicated across platforms, they create valuable backlinks to your website. Many distribution services publish on high-authority domains that appear in Google News and search results, improving rankings for branded and industry-related keywords.
What makes a press release newsworthy to Australian journalists?
Newsworthy press releases focus on genuine news value like product launches, partnerships, major hires, awards, or industry research. They should clearly answer who, what, when, where, and why in the opening paragraph, include expert quotes, and avoid purely promotional content that journalists typically ignore.
Can small businesses without a PR team use press release distribution services?
Yes, press release distribution services are designed to level the playing field for businesses without in-house PR teams or established media relationships. They provide professional distribution infrastructure, curated media contacts, and analytics without requiring existing journalist connections.
When is the best time to distribute a press release in Australia?
Mid-week mornings typically perform best for press release distribution in Australia, as journalists are actively planning their daily coverage. Avoid releasing news on Fridays or during major public holidays when media attention is reduced and outlets operate with minimal staff.
