A feature in New York Weekly puts your name in front of New Yorkers and people who do business in the city. It gives you a credible, searchable source that clients, investors and journalists can find when they look you up, and a link you can share for years.
What New York Weekly covers: New York business, culture and lifestyle profiles. This guide explains how to get featured there, which story angles work, and how to prepare.
Why a feature in New York Weekly matters
Most people decide whether to trust you before they ever speak to you. A third-party article from a recognized publication answers the question "who is this person?" better than anything you could say about yourself. New York Weekly reaches readers in and around New York City, and its articles are indexed by search engines, so the story keeps working long after publication day.
You arrive as a name. The press is where the world first learns to see you.
