A Self-Publishing Community Bulletin Board For Press Releases

The Boston Bulletin Board is a self-publishing community bulletin board for your press releases that is free-of-charge.  This site doesn’t allow advertising and doesn’t generate income in anyway.  It is a way for you to publish your press releases completely free. We are proud that BostonBulletin.com has existed for 18 years, since March 28th, 2005.

So How Do I Use the System?

Once you get a login, you will have a user name and a password. You will enter those two at this url.  Once you are in the system, visit the homepage, and look for new at the top of the page. Pull down and click post. Once you click on new post, you will get a page that looks like this:

The site is set up so you do NOT have to code.

The title is your headline.

Please capitalize the first letter in each word. Try to keep it to 10 words or less.

Under paragraph is where you will put all of your copy. You have the ability to save it as a draft until you are ready to publish.

You can bold key words, but don’t go overboard with bold – it turns readers off.

LOTS OF CAPITAL LETTERS ALSO TURNS READERS OFF. So limit this kind of type.

On the right side of the page, there is the ability to add a featured photo. Please do that for each post as photos attract readers.

You can upload a photo you have – jpeg images are best but a png file will work. PDF does not!

If you don’t have a photo – there are thousands of photos in the SOURCE system.

For example, if you are posting an obituary and you don’t have a photo, type in the word candle, and you will get dozens of photos to choose from.

Once you are happy with your copy, your photo, and your headline, then there are a couple of other things for you to do to help you report get noticed by Google and readers.

Please select a category.

If your post has interest in Natick or Ashland, select Natick Source or Ashland Source, but also select a category, like sports, education, government, community, business, etc.

You can select up to 5 categories maximum.
