PRWeb Podcast Expands Podcast Service Availability and Offerings

Since its launch nearly a year ago, PRWeb Podcast has recorded over 1,700 episodes and delivered more than 500,000 downloads. Starting Monday, December 18th, PRWeb Podcast will offer two new podcast services available at all PRWeb press release distribution levels.

Ferndale, WA (PRWEB) December 16, 2006 -- PRWeb (www.prweb.com), a Vocus (http://www.vocus.com/) (NASDAQ: VOCS) service and the Internet's leading direct-to-consumer press release newswire, announces changes to its popular PRWeb Podcast service. On Monday, December 18th, PRWeb will expand podcast availability to all of its distribution levels with two new press release podcasting services.

As PRWeb approaches the one-year anniversary of its podcasting service, PRWeb Podcast (www.PRWebPodcast.com), to date the PRWeb team has recorded over 1,700 episodes and delivered more than 500,000 episode downloads since the launch of www.PRWebPodcast.com.

"We have received a lot of great feedback this year about our podcasting production services," noted Andrew Schlichting, PRWeb's Web 2.0 Content Manager. "We've taken this info and created some exciting new offerings that will expand podcast opportunities for all PRWeb users."

Prior to this announcement, PRWeb users could request a five to seven minute podcast interview at no charge at PRWeb's $200 Advanced Online Visibility package level. Beginning Monday, December 18th, PRWeb's existing podcast services will be available as an add-on to any of PRWeb's press release distribution packages for $100. An additional podcast service offering an in-depth, extended 20 minute interview will also be available for an add-on of $200 to any existing press release package.

In January 2007, PRWeb will also launch a self-serve podcast upload option as a feature of its $200 press release distribution level. This user-generated, less than 10MB file of original material will be uploaded to the release and distributed as a part of the user's PRWeb podcast stream. When this new feature debuts in January, it will be available on all press releases distributed from the date of the service's launch and beyond, not retroactively.

"We've been very happy with the success that PRWeb Podcast has achieved," stated David McInnis, PRWeb CEO. "As our forward-thinking, innovative history suggests, we're always excited to launch new and improved features and services that will enhance our users' PRWeb experience and inevitably, their online visibility."
