We’ve added an extra layer of protection for your inbox.
Now, when you submit a query, your real email address is hidden from the HARO list. Instead, we use a masked email that routes pitches to you securely — preventing your address from being scraped or added to unwanted pitch lists.
This update also helps us filter spam more effectively, so only relevant responses reach you.
Your inbox, protected.

You asked, we delivered.
Due to growing journalist demand, we’ve scaled HARO to send two emails per day — helping you connect with the right sources faster.
In just the first week of HARO being back, nearly 750 source requests were submitted through the new cadence — and that number’s only growing.
More opportunities, delivered faster.

Need sources fast? HARO has your back.
Urgent HARO queries now get an extra boost — shared directly on our @HelpAReporter account on X (formerly Twitter), where we reach 115,000+ followers in real time.
It’s the fastest way to get your query in front of qualified sources when timing matters most.
Rapid reach, right when you need it.

I have some exciting news to share: Help a Reporter Out (HARO) is officially back.
Featured.com has acquired HARO with one simple goal — to bring back everything that made it great.
You’ll start seeing HARO emails again starting April 22nd. And just like before, it will remain free for both journalists and sources, supported by relevant newsletter sponsors.
Why now?
AI-generated content is everywhere, and your voice matters more than ever. HARO was built on the belief that everyone is an expert at something. We’re proud to revive that mission and help your insights power meaningful stories.
You can sign up for HARO by inputting your email address on the Help a Reporter Out homepage at www.helpareporter.com.

We’re honored to carry the HARO legacy forward, and excited to support you in this next chapter.
Warmly,
Founder & CEO, Featured.com
