Overview
PressRoom by Newswire helps you build a fully optimized press room on your website. Just as importantly, it will help you publish and distribute your press releases to the world. PressRoom creates “pin style” content blocks that inherit fonts, colors and styles from your website, however, the layout options for your PressRoom content is endless. Total control over these blocks is provided through a simple interface that allows you to choose backgrounds, colors, borders, headers, footers, and much more. Want even more control? The PressRoom settings provides a CSS window where you can easily change every aspect of the page, even so far as changing content blocks from pin style to anything you can think of.
