NEWSLINE360™ Puts Your Online Newsroom Inside Your Facebook Page

CHICAGO - March 24, 2016 - PRLog -- NEWSLINE360™, the groundbreaking cloud-based platform for building media-rich, followable online newsrooms, has announced new features, including the ability for companies to display their newsroom feed, as a newsroom tab, on their Facebook page.

"NEWSLINE360 is the only online newsroom platform that puts companies' newsrooms right inside their Facebook page as a special tab called 'newsroom,'" said company co-founder and president Michael Iwasaki.

Continuing its evolution as the state of the art interactive online newsroom building toolkit, NEWSLINE360 has upped its usability and visibility features, enhancing companies' ability to implement an effective content marketing strategy from any device, mobile or otherwise.

Journalists and media professionals can subscribe to follow newsrooms, search for news and query news sources, all at no cost. The public can also follow newsrooms at no cost. Newsroom subscribers pay a monthly fee for using the platform, starting at $79 per month.

The platform now boasts an easier-to-use interface for companies to connect their online newsroom to social media channels. In addition to Facebook, when posting to their newsroom, companies can simultaneously post news to their Pinterest, Twitter and LinkedIn sites. Conversely, they can configure their online newsroom so that it automatically displays their social media content on the "Social Media Feeds" tab of their online newsroom.

NEWSLINE360's seamless to-and-from integration with social media, its ability to be followed, its professional display of information, and its support for high resolution media-rich content, make it a truly professional, socially integrated, content marketing management system that increases brand visibility.

NEWLINE360 offered the ability to link high resolution jpegs and png files to every document posted right out of the box when it launched in December, 2015. It has added the ability to include 16-bit TIFF files, an attractive addition to companies who target print media. TIFF formatted photos are often the most useful to magazines who print using the CMYK four-color process.

New features and robust capabilities for journalists and media professionals

Journalists and media professionals who sign up for NEWSLINE360 also will find new features that help them connect to newsrooms of interest. When journalists and media professionals register at NEWSLINE360, they are presented with a list of suggested newsrooms to follow, based on the industries they cover, their news categories of interest, and their geographic area. When new newsrooms come online which match journalists' interests, NEWSLINE360 automatically notifies them.

In addition to the ability to follow newsrooms, NEWSLINE360 gives journalists and media professionals the ability to search for news content from among all NEWSLINE360 newsrooms, by industry, news category, key words and geographic location. The built in no-cost JAQ query service (Journalists Asking Questions) enables journalists to send private inquiries and requests to newsrooms, asking for news content, additional information or interviews to help them develop news stories.
