A dedicated article
The whole article is devoted to you. Room to set out your angle, your data and your examples, with an optional link defined in the brief. The most complete format for building authority.
Formats · Sponsored article
A press article entirely yours.
The richest format: an article dedicated to your brand, rewritten by the publisher and published on the outlet's site. All the space you need for your angle, data and story, serving your brand awareness, SEO or AI visibility.
What you get
A dedicated article, not an ad slot.
You get a full article, devoted to your brand, published on a verified press outlet. Written to inform, not to look like an ad. That's what gives it authority, and what makes it citable.
Rewritten by the publisher
The publisher rewrites the article in their language and the tone of their outlet. The result reads like newsroom content, not like a pasted-in ad. That integration is what gives it credibility.
Verified press outlet
Every outlet in the marketplace is verified before it goes live: real title, real audience, newsroom attached. You publish on established sources, not on sites built for the occasion.
Publication monitored for up to 3 years
ranksource monitors the publication for the full term stated by the media outlet, up to 3 years. Correction or republication comes first; if neither resolves the issue, a refund follows under the offer terms.
The process
Four steps, from targeting to publication.
From outlet selection to going live, every step is framed. You keep control of the angle, the publisher handles the writing and the publication on their title.
Media targeting
You browse the marketplace and filter by authority, audience, topic, language and country. You choose the outlet or outlets that matter for your sector, at a listed price.
Brief
You define the angle, the key messages and the link you want. A clear brief guides the publisher without dictating every sentence: that's what keeps the article's newsroom tone.
Writing
The publisher rewrites the article locally, in their language and the style of their outlet. You approve it before it goes live. Direct negotiation with the newsroom stays possible on sensitive points.
Publication
The article is published by the media outlet, in as little as 48 hours with the fastest publishers. It is then monitored for the full term stated by the media outlet, up to 3 years.
Article or link?
Sponsored article or inserted link?
Two formats, two logics. The article starts from a blank page and tells your brand story. The link fits into content that already exists. Here's how to decide.
The sponsored article
- New content, entirely dedicated to your brand
- Room for your angle, your data, your story
- Ideal for telling your brand story and building its authority
- Optional link, defined in the brief
The link in an existing article
- A link placed inside an already-published article
- Faster and lighter, in content that already has authority
- Ideal for strengthening a specific page
- Contextual dofollow link at the heart of the topic

Frequently asked
What people ask us most.
Does the article include a link to my site?
The link is optional and defined in the brief. You can aim for pure authority, with no outbound link, or add a contextual link to the page of your choice. If your goal is mainly a link, the link in an existing article is often more direct and lighter.
Who writes the article?
The outlet's publisher rewrites it locally, in their language and the tone of their title, from your brief. That's what gives the article its credibility: it reads like newsroom content. You approve it before publication, and direct negotiation with the newsroom stays possible.
How long does the article stay online?
ranksource checks daily for the first 30 days, then monthly until the end of the term stated by the media outlet, up to 3 years. We first seek a correction or republication. If neither resolves the issue, we refund you under the offer terms.
Can I choose the outlet?
Yes. You browse the marketplace and filter by authority, audience, topic, language and country, then select the outlets yourself, at a listed price. You publish exactly where you decide, not on an imposed bundle.
Does the article help my AI visibility?
Yes, this format can strengthen your AI visibility: long-form, sourced content published in a verified media outlet provides useful context for answer engines. Pickup is never guaranteed, as each engine chooses its own sources. To learn more, visit our dedicated AI visibility page.
