Release available 29th March
We are excited to announce a significant update to our Media Database that will help you leverage the additional data sources available within Vuelio. We will provide you with more accurate and descriptive Media Types to choose from when selecting Contacts, Outlets or social platforms to distribute your news and information.
As part of this update, we have re-evaluated and revised our Media Types to provide you with more precise categories that reflect the different types of publications and outlets available in the media landscape, therefore helping you access this unique data far more easily than before!
For example - "News Website" is being replaced with specific options, such as "Podcast".
This will ensure that your stories and press releases are delivered to the right audiences, helping you achieve your communications goals more effectively.
We're also expanding our Database with new Media Types to accommodate additional Contacts & Outlets for other publications, such TikTok and Instagram.
Your platform will update automatically - including any existing Outlets, Saved Searches, Groups or associated monitoring articles.
Here are the new and improved Media Types that are now available on Vuelio:
