Most of our publications provide follow back links, others don’t. Some publications change their policy on following back links, or later change a followed back link to a no-followed back link. We have little control over this element of our service, and there are no refunds in case a followed link becomes “no followed” after publication. We will give the most updated information to you during the sales process, but publications change their link policy from time to time.

Despite not contributing to link building for SEO purposes, nofollow links can still drive valuable referral traffic to a website if someone clicks on them. A well-placed blog comment with a nofollow link can generate a significant amount of traffic and eventually lead to conversions. In addition, nofollow links can also directly result in someone spending money on a company’s products or services if the company consistently creates awareness and engages with its audience.

Finally, links, whether nofollow or not, help build trust and establish a company as an industry authority. Therefore, it’s important to consider what links are good for a business and its brand, rather than solely focusing on what links are good for SEO purposes. Some experts recommend having an equal balance of follow and nofollow links, while others suggest having a greater number of follow links. Ultimately, the most important thing is to build a brand and make decisions that are in the best interest of the business.

We have an extensive list of organic or discretely sponsored publications. However, from time to time, publications change their policies on disclaimers. If a publication that once published your news story as organic and free from disclaimers, or disclosed the affiliation or sponsorship between Dreams Animation and itself discretely but changes their policy or disclaimer later to introduce a disclaimer or make an existing disclaimer more prominent, you will not be entitled to a refund, or a partial refund, as we have no control over what publications do after publication of your news story.

We have a team of highly credentialed and experienced writers and editors; however, sometimes aligning expectations between our team and your brand causes friction. We send a questionnaire after payment is received to give us some background about what you want us to write, how you want it written, and we will try our best in every case.

Our clients usually pick an attention-grabbing topic about their business. If you’re not sure, you can always reach out to us for help. We have a great team that has experience in getting more eyeballs onto articles.

This happens from time to time, and the solution is always to simply let us know the changes you want to the news story by communicating them directly to us. We will always share the news stories with you in an editable format. You are free to change the article, make edits, or change links as you like.

Our writing service is limited to one draft and one round of edits for each news story. If you want us to start again, fees apply. Please note that if you rewrite the article, or insert changes directly into the article, you will not be charged anything further.

Every now and again, articles don’t rank straight away, although the majority do, especially in the Google News Feed. There are strategies to help get your published news stories to rank strongly in Google, but you will need to integrate the links and logos into your website in a search engine-friendly manner. We can advise on this after you receive our press publication report.

1) The title of your press release should be a minimum of 6-8 words (excluding prepositions and articles).
Here are the guidelines for writing the headline for reference:
– The headline must include the company’s name or the name of the spokesperson/author.
– The headline can’t contain personal pronouns (I, Me, My, We, Us, Our, You, Your, Them, Their, etc.).
– The headline can’t contain an exclamation point.
– The headline should be a minimum of 6-8 words (excluding prepositions and articles).
– The headline can’t contain quotes.
– The headline should not sound like the headline of an advert. Discounts/pricing details and product specifications can be added in the subheadline or article’s body.
2) The article can’t be written in the first or second person voice. First person (I, Me, My, We, Us, Our, etc.) and second person (You, Your, etc.) voices are not considered newsworthy, except in quotations.
3) The articles cannot mention Dreams Animation in the headline or body copy or denigrate our reputation or good standing.

It’s quick. We will provide a publication plan with headlines & matching publications. Once approved, we will write your stories. When you give approval for the publication of those stories, we will publish as quickly as possible based on the turnaround times for each publication, starting with the fastest and concluding with the slowest, after which we can send you links to the published article(s) within 2-5 business days.

Some of the publishers we work with permit authored publication, and we will advise you which publications when we speak with you via a Zoom call. In the event that a particular publisher changes its guidelines on authored or contributor posts, we will utilize another publication in its stead. Please be aware that we have no control over changes that may occur to publishers’ policies.

You will have a report that contains the logo of each website (i.e., Forbes, Business Insider, Entrepreneur, etc.) along with the relevant link, but please note our service is paid promotion and though the majority of times the articles are indexing in search results, sometimes news sites make it hard for users to search for the articles themselves without having a direct link to the article. What most customers do is link the logos and articles from their homepage, landing pages, contact page, and social media to increase trust and credibility, and this is what we recommend you do too.

We have different pricing options including credit card, direct debit, and even USDT for our WEB3 clients. We accept a number of currencies including USD, AUD, CAD, GBP, Euro, and other currencies upon request.

Articles usually stay up for months or years, but in some cases, like with Marketwatch, publishers decide to remove them within 3-6 months of publication. Provided we succeed in publishing your news story, there will be no refund if the story is removed.

We have an extensive list of .com news sites, but we also work with a number of international subsidiaries. We have different arrangements with different websites. Some are .com, others are country-specific subsidiary sites. Please ask prior to publication if you have questions about whether a website is on the .com or a subsidiary site. The global news sites, while mostly skewed toward the US, can be either .com or country-specific subsidiary sites, depending on what we have in our inventory. Our inventory changes often, so we cannot provide an exhaustive list, so if you are concerned about the format of a news site’s URL, domain, or sub-domain, or worried about where on the site your article or news story will appear, please ask us prior to publication.

It is your right to ask questions about the news site prior to publication, and we will do our best to answer any questions you might have. If in doubt, please ask prior to publication. Once published, we cannot do anything to change the article, content, language, links (follow or no-follow), or any other details you might have an issue with, if we don’t know of that issue in advance.

These websites require news stories written in the style of a press release announcing a corporate milestone, notable hire, or other achievement. There are special editorial requirements that apply. For example, you cannot be promoting an individual or blockchain project, for example.

We will deliver a full feature in Forbes Georgia or Israel (through our brand voice partnership), which still rank in the US.

We will deliver a full feature in a subsidiary publication of Vogue Magazine online in English. Please note that a feature in Vogue is an upgrade available on the Yearly, Quarterly, or Monthly subscriptions (but not the Basic subscription), but you are required to pay a one-off additional $1,500 in the month you want to secure the placement.

The majority of our fashion publications are US-based, although some of our most popular publications are via international subsidiaries, which mostly rank in the US. In particular, Elle, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, GQ, Glamour, L’Officiel, and Marie Claire are published via international subsidiaries. They all rank strongly in the United States.

We do not write about the following topics:

• Misleading or Deceptive Information: Content that is knowingly false or misleading, including fake news or hoaxes.
• Offensive or Inappropriate Content: Material that is offensive, discriminatory, or inappropriate, including hate speech, derogatory language, or content promoting violence or intolerance.
• Illegal Activities: Any content that promotes illegal activities or provides instructions on engaging in illegal actions.
• Personal and Confidential Information: Publishing personal, confidential, or proprietary information without consent, such as private contact details, financial data, or trade secrets.
• Medical and Health Claims: Unsupported or non-compliant medical claims, especially those related to miracle cures, unapproved drugs, or misleading health advice.
• Financial and Investment Advice: Content offering specific financial or investment advice without proper disclaimers or that could be considered as misleading financial promotions.
• Adult Content: Adult content or pornography is generally prohibited.
• Political or Religious Bias: Some PR distribution sites may avoid overtly political or religious content, especially if it’s controversial or extremist in nature.
• Spam and Irrelevant Content: Material that is considered spam, overly promotional without substantive information, or irrelevant to the intended audience.
• Libelous, Defamatory or Slanderous Material: Content that could be considered libelous, slanderous, or defamatory.

If you purchase one of our services and intend us to write about any of these topics, we will substitute these topics for permitted topics, but we will not issue a refund.

Upon engaging our services, either through a one-off campaign or a retainer agreement, clients are allocated a specific number of news stories, as detailed in their individual service agreement. Subject to our refund policy, it is understood and agreed upon by you that any unused news stories allocated under either a one-off campaign or a retainer agreement must be utilized within one (1) year from the date of engagement with Dreams Animation, or, in the case of retainer clients, within one (1) year from the date of the final payment made under their retainer agreement.

In some cases, it might be possible to change elements of a story once published for an additional fee, but in the case of Business Insider, Associated Press, Yahoo Finance, and the outlets in our 500 News Outlet offer, we cannot change any element of the story once published.
