Summary Report of PRNewswire Event

·         At the preparation of this report, June 3, the release had received 278 individual (unique) click-throughs by media companies, with total hits (repeated click-throughs) of 327.
·         Headline impressions numbered 78,531.  That’s how often the headline was displayed on the PRNewswire and PRLog websites, Javascript and RSS feeds.
·         PRNewswire reported a combined “visitor per day” total of more than 21.3 million on about 225 of the 278 sites worldwide on which the press release appeared.  It’s impossible to say what the total of all the sites would be, since some did not have visitor per day information readily available. For instance, it appeared on the search engine, ask.com, but no traffic information is available.
·         Well trafficked sites included CBS MoneyWatch, American Public Media Marketplace, Boston.com, Yahoo Finance, the California Chronicle, Los Angeles Business, Dow Jone’s MarketWatch, Sacramento Business Journal and San Francisco Business Times.
