How to Get Featured in Forbes: Get Featured in Other Outlets First

Prices checked October 27, 2026. Forbes publishes none of the paid prices.

Only the first row is Forbes choosing you, and it's free. The rest of this guide is how to earn it.

Forbes writers feature people who are newsworthy. Forbes doesn't look to feature people unless they've been featured in other outlets first.

Just think about it. If you were to email a Forbes writer today and say, hey, write a story about my company, and your name brought up nothing but your own website. They'd either skip it or delete it. Why is that? It's because nobody else has written about you yet.

Coverage is the key. That's the big secret. A writer who finds news articles about you is looking at a story other editors already ran.

AnotherZero was founded in 2020, and we didn't start in Forbes. First, other outlets featured us, the same way we feature clients today. Once those articles were out, we ended up featured in Forbes, for free. Same company, no fee to Forbes, different paper trail.

Today AnotherZero has featured 15,318+ businesses, is ranked #123 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 and is rated 5 stars on Trustpilot. AnotherZero itself has been featured in Forbes, FOX, NBC, ABC and CBS.

1. Get your first feature. A custom article about your business, in the outlet you choose, for $97. It's the first news article a writer finds when they search your name.
2. Use it to land more. Pitch local papers, trade publications and podcasts in your field with your feature linked. Each yes adds to the trail.
3. Put the logos up. Every feature comes with "As Seen On" rights for your homepage and your bio. Before he founded AnotherZero, Nic Abelian's local-services company in Los Angeles went from a 12.4% close rate to 23.1% just by adding "As Seen On" logos, without changing a single ad. Here's how to use an As Seen On badge.
4. Build a press page. One page on your site that lists every feature with its link, plus a short bio a writer can lift.
5. Pitch one Forbes writer, with your coverage attached. Search Forbes.com for your topic and find the writer who covers it. In a few sentences, say what the story is and why it matters now, then link two or three of your features. Forbes also takes story ideas at tips@forbes.com. Follow up once. You only need one yes.

For your first feature, you choose the outlet you want from over 60 different options, and we have a 100% money-back guarantee. If we can't get you featured in the outlet of your choice, you get a full refund. For more ways to pitch, see how to get your business in the news.

Our $97 feature is one custom 800–1,000 word article about your business, written for you and published in the news outlet you choose.

• SEO keyword research and unlimited revisions and rewrites. Nothing publishes without your approval.
• Guaranteed publication in the outlet you choose.
• A do-follow backlink from a high-authority news site, indexed by Google.
• "As Seen On" usage rights, a custom banner and a social media kit.
• A 2-minute intake form, and your draft in 24–48 hours.

Rather run a press release? The same $97 includes press release options on AP, NewsBreak and StreetInsider.

Why only $97? We publish over 1,000 articles a month, which means direct relationships with editorial teams and rates individual businesses could never access.

We have a philosophy here at AnotherZero that says if your article doesn't run where you chose, we don't deserve your money. So every feature comes with four guarantees:

• Love it or it never runs. If you never approve it, you get a full refund.
• Your chosen outlet within 7 days of your approval, or your money back.
• It stays live. If a placement comes down within the first year, it's replaced free.
• Lowest price of any PR firm, guaranteed.

See every step on How It Works, or read what clients say on the AnotherZero reviews page.

Now, a lot of PR agencies will "guarantee Forbes." But when the article runs, it isn't on a real Forbes site. It's on a site that only looks like Forbes, such as forbesla.com ("Forbes LA").

So before you pay anyone for "Forbes," get the exact forbes.com address in writing.
