Founder notes
Editorial media outlet, not a directory. Coverage requires pitching an editor with a genuine news angle. Links are typically nofollow and no self-serve submission form exists. BuzzFeed News as a standalone brand largely wound down, so verify the outlet is still active before pitching.
Decision criteria
- Audience overlap with your launch goal
- Submission effort, timing, and editorial requirements
- Backlink, authority, and distribution upside
