Press Release Distribution in Dubai With the Publication List Published Upfront
Most press release distribution services in Dubai promise coverage on top tier media without naming a single outlet. We publish the full list below: 114 publications across the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC, in English and Arabic, with the ones that carry both languages marked.
Brands That Trust Us
Publications Your Release Can Reach
A selection of the better known names in the network. The complete list of all 114 outlets, grouped by sector, is further down this page.
Where Your Press Release Will Actually Be Published
These are the 114 publications in our distribution network across the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC. Outlets highlighted in blue publish in both Arabic and English. Not every release lands in every outlet, because placement depends on the sector and the news itself, and any service claiming otherwise is describing a mailing list rather than distribution.
Media networks change continually, so the confirmed target list for your release is provided with your quote.
Press Release Distribution Pricing
Priced per release rather than locked into a retainer, because most businesses need distribution when they have news, not every month. Every package includes the full coverage report.
Add ons
Prices in USD, excluding VAT where applicable. Confirmed in writing before any work begins.
What Our Press Release Distribution Services Include
Distribution on its own is the easy part. What determines whether a release gets picked up is the writing, the targeting and the language it is published in.
Press Release Writing
Written in news style rather than marketing style, because editors reject copy that reads like an advertisement. Includes headline, body, boilerplate and quotes prepared with your team.
Arabic Translation
Not machine translated. Arabic releases are prepared properly, which matters because 45 of the outlets in our network publish in Arabic and those placements are consistently less contested.
Targeted Distribution
Matched to your sector rather than blasted to everything. A fintech release goes to financial and fintech desks; a travel release goes to tourism titles. Relevance is what gets published.
Live Coverage Report
Every published link, the language, and the outlet, delivered as a report you can forward to your board or client. This is the deliverable most services quietly omit.
SEO Value Built In
Releases are structured so the coverage supports your search visibility, connecting to our wider link building and technical SEO work rather than sitting isolated.
AI Search Visibility
News coverage is one of the strongest signals AI assistants use when deciding which businesses to cite. We structure releases so they feed AI search visibility, not just Google.
Why Arabic Distribution Doubles Your Coverage
Look at the publication list above and you will notice something most press release distribution services in Dubai do not tell you: a substantial share of the region\u2019s media publishes primarily in Arabic. Across regional distribution campaigns, Arabic placements routinely account for roughly half of total coverage, and on some releases more than half.
An English only release simply does not reach those desks. You are paying for distribution and accessing part of the network. Worse, Arabic outlets are meaningfully less contested, so the same story frequently achieves better placement in Arabic than it does in English.
This also matters for search. Arabic language search accounts for a significant share of UAE queries and competition for Arabic terms is consistently lower, which means Arabic coverage builds visibility in a space most of your competitors are ignoring entirely.
Translation is done properly rather than run through a machine. Regional editors reject poorly translated copy quickly, and a bad Arabic release damages credibility with exactly the publications you are trying to reach.
How Press Release Distribution in Dubai Works With Us
Brief, write, distribute, report. Most releases go live within a few working days of approval.
Brief and Angle
We establish what the news actually is and whether it is genuinely publishable. Not every announcement is, and we will tell you when a release is not the right vehicle.
Write in Both Languages
News style copy in English, then properly prepared Arabic. You approve both before anything is sent.
Targeted Distribution
Matched to the publications that cover your sector, across UAE, Saudi and wider GCC desks, rather than blasted indiscriminately.
Coverage Report
A full report of every published link with outlet and language, usually within a few days of distribution.
What We Will Not Claim
Press release distribution is an easy service to oversell, because the buyer rarely checks what actually published. These are the four claims we refuse to make.
Press Release Distribution in Dubai: Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing depends on whether you need the release written, whether it runs in English only or English and Arabic, and how wide the distribution is. Single release distribution in this market commonly runs from a few thousand dirhams; adding professional writing and Arabic translation increases it. Traditional Dubai PR agencies charge monthly retainers starting around AED 15,000 simply to pitch, which is a different service to distribution. We quote per release or per campaign with the outlet list attached, so you can see exactly what you are buying.
The full list is published on this page rather than hidden behind a sales call. It covers 114 outlets across UAE, Saudi and wider GCC media, spanning business wires, national press, sector titles and syndication networks, with 45 publishing in both Arabic and English. Actual placement depends on your sector and the news itself, and the confirmed target list for your specific release is provided with the quote.
No, and be careful with anyone who does. Major national titles make editorial decisions and cannot be bought through a distribution service. Where a story genuinely merits that level of attention we will pitch it, but a guarantee of premium placement usually means paid advertorial presented as editorial. What we do guarantee is the distribution itself and a full report of everything that published.
Most placements appear within 24 to 72 hours of distribution, with some outlets publishing same day and others running on a weekly cycle. Your coverage report is typically delivered within a few days once results have settled. Writing and Arabic translation add a few working days before distribution, depending on approval speed.
In most cases yes, and the numbers on this page explain why. Roughly 45 of the outlets in our network publish in Arabic, and in our campaigns Arabic placements frequently account for around half of total coverage. An English only release cannot reach those desks. Arabic outlets are also less contested, so the same story often achieves better placement in Arabic.
Indirectly, and honestly this is where most services overpromise. Many syndicated news links are nofollow or carry limited direct ranking value. The real benefits are brand visibility, entity signals that help search engines and AI assistants understand who you are, and the possibility of genuine journalists picking up the story and linking editorially. If your primary goal is link authority, our link building service is the more direct route and we will say so.
Something a reader outside your company would find genuinely interesting: a funding round, a licence or regulatory approval, a partnership, a launch, original data, an award, an expansion or a senior appointment. What does not work is a release with no news in it. We assess the angle before quoting, and occasionally advise waiting for a stronger story rather than spending on one that will be ignored.
Yes, and it is usually the better option. Releases written internally tend to read as marketing copy, which editors reject quickly. We write in news style, prepare the Arabic version properly, and you approve both before anything is distributed.
Yes. The network covers Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and wider MENA alongside the UAE, and the publication list on this page is grouped so you can see the regional spread. Targeting is set to match where your audience actually is rather than sending everything everywhere.
Every published article with its live link, the outlet name and the language it ran in, compiled into a document you can forward to a client, board or investor without editing. This is the deliverable that separates real distribution from a mailing list, and it is the reason we can publish an accurate outlet list at all.
