Find relevant media contacts with Prowly’s advanced database

Media contact information based on more than Twitter

Unlike Muck Rack, media contacts in Prowly's database are based off various sources to help you find the people you’re looking for—even if they’re not active on Twitter or other social media platforms.

By sourcing information from different channels, contact information is more accurate and not limited to what can be found on a journalist's Twitter profile.

Though I love it for its connection to/with Twitter, that same connection doesn't work at all, if said journalist doesn't "do" Twitter. That in and of itself proves to be a drawback [of Muck Rack].

If a journalist you are trying to reach out to doesn't have a twitter page, or doesn't keep their twitter updated it [Muck Rack's database] won't help you.

Sometimes it's difficult to find small town, local reporters in small niche industries, especially if they're not on Twitter. I usually have to use another media database.

Muck Rack's main area of improvement needed is simply that it lacks contact information for a large chunk of journalists. Anyone from a lesser known publication is usually not included.

Review source: Verified TrustRadius Reviewer

Sometimes [Muck Rack's] information is out of date, so it would be good if there was someone who was responsible for doing regular updates to the database.

The information aggregated by MuckRack is sometimes inaccurate. It often says a journalist is employed by a newspaper simply because that paper reposted the article from its original source.

I feel like for small companies under 5 employees or just freelancers, like myself, it [Muck Rack] can be better priced As a freelancer, it took me a bit to to see ROI in a month.
