In my experience, FREE submission receives:

about 10-20% of the short term traffic that PAID submission does &
virtually no ongoing search engine traffic

The bottom line is that if you have the budget, PAID submission is definitely worth it.

PR Web's Paid Services

Standard Visibility: $80 with 20,000 RSS feeds that get pulled over 10 million times every month as well as PR Web Alerts going to the email boxes of any journalists subscribed to your press release's relevant keywords

Social Media Visibility: $120 enables your press release to have trackbacks, and links to social bookmarking & Web 2.0 sites, which can greatly increase your visibility if Web 2.0 users are an important part of your market

SEO Visibility: $200, enable you to use hyper links, meaning that Google News (and the other search engines), as well as any niche-specific RSS feeds will pick the press release up. If they do (and it's likely that they will, creating a quick "spike" in traffi) you'll get backlinks from those sites pointing at your press release...which will probably create traffic...and possibly gain page rank for your website.

PR Web Easy Submit: $100 PR web does all the work for you

PR Web Multimedia $100/$200, add a podcast, PDF etc.

N./B.: See Lee Odden's blogpost about the PR Web's $200 Multimedia option
