My company appears in articles of NYTimes, Guardian, NBC and more! - Under The Breach - Feb 20, 2020
First we broke the news to ZDNet and together with their editors we published this article:
https://www.zdnet.com/article/exclusive-details-of-10-6-million-of-mgm-hotel-guests-posted-on-a-hacking-forum/
then I got approached by several other journalists from NYTimes, Guardian and NBC and my company also appears in these articles:

This is what I call good marketing!
Good work, and also good articles!

Wow. I remember when you posted the thread about taking UTB seriously again and it's really paid off hasn't it?

Can I ask, you contacted those mediums, or they contacted you? And if the second, where do they saw your posts? Did you advertised them somewhere? (don't tell where, just if you do or not)

Hasn't paid off yet, but hopefully if the service we're offering gets clients it will pay off :)

They contacted me after I published the news article with ZDNet, I approached ZDNet as I am in contact with their journalist

Good marketing always helps :) With good content (like yours) it helps a lot!

Must have missed your comment
All in all the publicity helped me but it isn't as big as some might think here
in essence it allows me to be able to have my clients google my brand name and find articles from credible sources which is good but definitely not everything, you need a good product, good management, good PR, good employees...
