Customizing Your Personal Newsfeed

Use the keyword search or search filters on the left to find news releases you’re most interested in viewing.

Filtering options available in Business Wire's newsroom

Keyword Search

  • Enter a keyword or phrase. Determine if you want to search for this keyword in an entire release, or in the headline, ticker, ISIN, dateline, or body only. Select whether your search should contain or not contain the keyword you’ve inputted. Then click “Add Keyword.” Your results will be displayed with the most recent release shown first.
  • Each time you click “Add Keyword,” the new keyword or phrase is added to your search and expands your results. You can see all added keywords in two places: below the Keyword Search fields on the left, and at the top of your search results, under the “Newsroom” heading.
  • To remove a search keyword or phrase, click the “x” next to the term displayed underneath the “Add Keyword” button or above your results. Click “Clear Search” to clear all filters and keywords.
  • It is not necessary to use quotation marks when entering keywords or phrases in the Keyword Search box.  

Search Filters 

  • Add Language, Industry, Subject, or Region filters to search for news releases, or to refine your search results.
  • For example, click “Language”, then select any languages of interest. Or click “Industry,” and select the industries you’re most interested in.
  • Some filters have sub-options; you can view news related to “Automotive,” or you can get more specific and view news for “Off-Road Trucks & SUVs.”
  • As you add keywords or filters, your newsfeed results will automatically be updated. 

Tip: News releases will be displayed in all languages unless you select specific languages under the Language filter.

Primary Search

Steps to set a primary search in Business Wire's newsroom

When you log in for the first time, you’ll see “Primary Search” listed under Saved Searches. This defaults to Business Wire’s full newsfeed unless you decide to customize it based on your interests.

The feed you select as your primary search is what you will receive via your PressPass email(s).

When saving a new search, you can save over your default primary search. You can edit your primary search at any time. Only one search can be saved as your primary search, but you can save as many searches as you like.

If you have other saved searches, you can make one of these your primary search. A star icon appears next to the name of your designated primary search.
