Journalists are busy and rarely read more than the first few paragraphs. While you need to be thorough, an excessively long press release shows a lack of focus.

Standard Press Release Lengths

  • Ideal Word Count: Typically between 300 to 450 words. Avoid going over 500.
  • Headline: Maximize impact in 100 characters or less.
  • Dateline & Intro: The first paragraph should hit the 5 Ws: Who, what, when, where, why.

Make every sentence count. Draft your PR using our live word counter tool built for public relations professionals.

Private & Secure: All text processing is done client-side. We do not store or track your inputs.
