Get Featured in Crypto Coverage and Listings
Quick answer: To get featured on TBN Express you can either pitch a newsworthy crypto development for editorial consideration or choose a disclosed commercial placement. Independent coverage is earned on merit and never sold, while sponsored articles and press releases are clearly labelled as paid. Nothing we publish, paid or editorial, is financial advice.
Key takeaways
- Two routes: earned editorial consideration, or disclosed commercial placement.
- Editorial: based on newsworthiness and merit — never guaranteed, never sold.
- Commercial: sponsored content and press releases, clearly labelled.
- To pitch: use the contact page or [email protected].
- Boundary: we don’t sell undisclosed or disguised paid links or coverage.
What “get featured” means on TBN Express
Getting featured in crypto media can mean two very different things, and we keep them separate on purpose. The first is earned editorial: our team decides, on the merits, to report on or reference your project because it is genuinely newsworthy. The second is a disclosed commercial placement you arrange, clearly labelled so readers know it is paid. Both can raise your visibility; only one is for sale, and we never blur the two.
This distinction is what keeps our coverage credible — and credible coverage is the only kind worth being featured in.
It is worth being clear-eyed about why the difference matters to you, not just to us. A reader who has learned that our reporting is independent treats an earned mention as a genuine signal. If we quietly sold that same slot, the signal would be worthless — for every brand, including yours. So the wall we keep between earned and paid is not bureaucratic prudishness; it is what makes any kind of featuring on TBN Express mean something in the first place.
How to earn editorial consideration
Editorial featuring is not something you buy, but you can make it more likely by pitching well:
- Lead with genuine news — a launch, a notable integration, real traction or original data.
- Provide verifiable facts — specifics our team can confirm.
- Offer access — a named spokesperson or founder for comment.
- Respect the beat — pitch what fits our audience, not a generic blast.
We read every relevant pitch, but we cannot promise coverage; that decision stays with the editorial team.
A few practical habits improve your odds. Pitch the story, not the company — editors respond to “here is what happened and why it matters”, not “please cover us”. Get to the point in the first two sentences. Include the boring but vital details, like dates, figures and who to contact, so an editor can verify without a chase. And time it: news is far easier to feature while it is still news. A tight, honest pitch that respects an editor’s time stands out precisely because so many do not.
Disclosed ways to be featured
- Sponsored content — a labelled branded article telling your story in depth.
- Press releases — labelled company announcements for news moments.
- Advertising — labelled placements across the site.
- Partnerships — combined programmes for sustained visibility.
What makes a project featurable
Whether the route is editorial or commercial, the strongest candidates share the same traits: a clear reason readers should care, verifiable claims, transparency about the team, and no reliance on hype or guaranteed-return promises. Projects that overstate metrics or dodge scrutiny are hard to feature responsibly, because our audience — and our standards — will not carry them.
Being featurable is largely about being ready to be checked. If your team is public, your claims are documented, and your product does what you say, you make it easy for us to write about you accurately and for readers to trust what they read. Projects that are still cagey about basics — who is behind them, what has actually shipped, what the risks are — are not disqualified, but they are harder to cover, and we will usually suggest the disclosed route until the fundamentals are verifiable.
Coverage is not a favour to be repaid
One last principle worth stating plainly: earned coverage carries no obligation in either direction. If we report on your project, that does not entitle us to anything from you, and it does not entitle you to more coverage later. Equally, buying a disclosed placement does not soften our independent view — a sponsored article and a critical news piece about the same project can, and sometimes do, sit on the same site. Keeping those threads separate is exactly what lets readers trust both.
If that sounds demanding, it is meant to. The projects that thrive with us over time are the ones comfortable being held to a real standard, because they have nothing to hide. Being featured on a title that would criticise you if the facts warranted it is worth far more than being praised on one that praises everybody. That is the kind of featuring we can offer, and the only kind worth wanting.
So if you are ready, the next step is simply to get in touch and tell us what is happening with your project. Be specific, be honest about the stage you are at, and point us to whatever a reader would need to verify the story. Whether the outcome is a considered editorial mention or a well-made disclosed placement, the path to being featured on TBN Express starts with a clear, checkable account of why your news matters now.
