By: Swati Maheshwari, Content Marketing Manager, Radix

Journalists and media publications are increasingly appreciating the value of a .PRESS domain because it helps establish their credibility and adds value to their brand. Since UNESCO has commemorated May 3 as World Press Freedom Day, we’re taking a look at some of the most amazing websites from the press industry that are using .PRESS domains to establish their online identity.

Freedom.press

Hey.press

Hey Press is a searchable database of tech journalists. It has collected hundreds of thousands of articles for thousands of writers. Simply enter a keyword to find the most relevant journalists for that topic along with the articles they’ve written as well as their contact details wherever possible.
