Conditional free route directory

Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.

What the free route requires

  • Free account + free business-profile posting in the business directory ('Post Your Profile', 'Create Free Account')
  • Press-release distribution has a Free package but with 'reduced distribution to general search engines, in PR.com, some 3rd party and news websites, and RSS feeds' — real reach starts at $60 and the pricing page shows a '$29.95 per link' note

Requirements

  • Account creation at admin.pr.com/create-account (the batch-provided pr.com/pr-signup.php URL returned 404 — real signup lives on the admin subdomain)
  • Two distinct products: (1) free business directory profile with products & services listings; (2) paid press-release distribution
  • Company profile supports full descriptions, images, specifications, editable any time

Prepare before opening the form

  • Company name, description, industry category, logo/images
  • Products/services descriptions for the products-services directory
  • If using press release: a written release (headline, body, contact info, image)

Workflow

  1. Create a free account at https://admin.pr.com/create-account
  2. Post the business profile (Post Your Profile → /business-profiles) — this is the free directory listing
  3. Add products & services entries under the profile
  4. Optionally submit a press release via admin.pr.com/info_press_item.php — choose the free package or a paid tier ($60/$100/$300)
  5. Verify the profile appears in the business directory

Watch for

  • Batch's pr-signup.php URL is dead — signup is on admin.pr.com
  • The free press-release tier is heavily reduced-distribution; the paid-tier upsell is the core business model
  • '$29.95 per link' note on the pricing page suggests per-link charges in releases — check before submitting a link-heavy release
  • Directory and press release are separate flows; a business profile does not publish a press release

What counts as live

The company profile is publicly visible in the PR.com business directory at a pr.com/... URL, or the press release appears under /press-release/<id>

Not verified

  • Whether free business-profile website links are dofollow
  • Approval turnaround for new profiles and free-tier press releases
  • What the '$29.95 per link' fee applies to exactly
