PocketNewz is a safe Mobile and Cloud-based Newz Publishing Platform that permits small newspapers, independent journalists and local community content providers (whom we like to call “Newzers”) to easily add our fully integrated mobile app to their current business structure or social media communications, allowing them to shift their viewers from print and web to a true multi-media mobile app.

- Easy and Simple to Use: Within minutes, authenticated content makers can create a broadcast station, post content and attract viewers on the platform.
-It’s Free! The Starter version of Pocketnewz is available to newspapers, journalists, and Newzers without charge.
-Unique Features: PocketNewz has many unique features from which content makers and their readers will benefit, helping provide a much better viewing experience.
-It’s Engaging: Given that mobile viewers will spend 7X more time on content on a mobile in-app platform compared to a standalone website, content makers will benefit significantly from having this mobile platform.
-Secure Environment: In-depth authentication of all content makers and those users who wish to comment. -If you want to post content, we will insist we know who you are.
- Community Only: Our intent is to keep out the “main-stream media” such as NYT, WSJ, CNN, etc. so that viewers can get the news that is more localized vs. national.

*USER TESTIMONIAL
PocketNewz will change the way I post content. I have a large following on social media and currently make no money on it. PocketNewz changes the game. Plus, my vast network of independent journalists will love this idea and sign up immediately. I’m excited to be part of the PocketNewz executive team, as we innovate how news is published, consumed and monetized. This app will be a journalist’s best friend, along with the viewers who consume the content.”

*USER TESTIMONIAL
“I thought this was a heck of a lot of fun. I think we all enjoy having a platform to voice our thoughts and opinions and shine a light on whats important to us, and this was a great vehicle to do this in a serious and informative way. I think it has more gravitas than YouTube, as the format presents itself in a news-worthy manner. Being able to use the map feature can allow the user to target news stories in their area and really get a feel for whats happening in the community. Its a great concept!”
