From sign-up to press mention.
No PR agency required.
Tell us your expertise
Add topics like “fintech,” “nutrition,” or “employment law.” We match you with journalist requests that fit your exact knowledge — no noise, no irrelevant pitches.
Get the alert first
An email fires the moment a relevant request appears. Journalists work on short deadlines — responding within hours dramatically increases your odds of being quoted.
Get featured. Keep the backlink.
Reply with your expert quote. When published, you earn the brand mention, the high-DA backlink, and the credibility that compounds over time.

You don’t need a publicist. You need to show up when journalists are asking.
Build authority that attracts investors
One quote in the right publication generates months of inbound leads, partnership interest, and investor attention — permanently.
Earn DA 70+ backlinks. No guest post grind.
One journalist quote earns a backlink that would cost $2K+ through any other channel. And it reads as editorial, not advertising.

Why it works
Be the first expert in their inbox.
Journalists on deadline take the first credible reply, not the best one that arrives tomorrow. JournoPig surfaces requests in real time, so you answer while the story is still being written.
A single mention in a major outlet earns a DA 90+ backlink and a credibility badge you can use forever. PR agencies charge thousands per month chasing exactly this outcome.
Set your keywords once and only see requests that fit your expertise. No digging through hundreds of irrelevant queries — the right ones find you.
Comparable monitoring tools charge $50–60 a month for the same journalist requests. JournoPig is $9.99 — less than a coffee a week, cancel anytime.
