Get Featured in Time Magazine
Time Magazine is among the most recognised and respected media brands on the planet, read by over 100 million people monthly and synonymous with authoritative coverage of the people, ideas, and events shaping our world. A Time feature places your brand in the company of heads of state, Nobel laureates, and the visionaries who define each era. At United Press, we help forward-thinking brands and leaders secure Time Magazine coverage that establishes enduring authority, attracts global attention, and creates the kind of recognition that permanently elevates a brand’s position in public consciousness.
A Century of Defining What Matters
Since 1923, Time has been the publication the world turns to for definitive coverage of the most important people and ideas. Time’s annual Person of the Year, TIME100, and Best Inventions lists are among the most anticipated and widely discussed media events globally. When Time covers your brand, it doesn’t just generate publicity — it creates a historical record. Time features are archived, cited, and referenced for decades, providing a permanence of recognition that no other publication can match. Our media distribution services are designed for campaigns seeking this calibre of coverage.
Our Time Magazine PR Strategy
Time Magazine operates with editorial standards that reflect its century-long reputation as journalism’s most authoritative voice. Securing Time coverage requires stories of genuine significance — innovation that changes industries, leadership that inspires movements, and brands that represent meaningful shifts in how we live and work. Our PR approach centres on identifying the element of your brand that connects to Time’s editorial mission: covering the people and ideas that shape the future. We develop compelling, evidence-based narratives that demonstrate your brand’s significance within the broader context of global progress.
Time's Expanding Digital Influence
While Time’s print legacy is unmatched, its digital transformation has created new pathways to coverage. Time.com attracts over 70 million monthly visitors. Time’s video content reaches millions through partnerships with major streaming platforms. TIME CO2, TIME Health, and TIME for Kids represent dedicated editorial verticals with distinct audiences. Time’s social media presence — with a combined following exceeding 50 million — amplifies every feature to a global audience of influencers and decision-makers. This multi-platform presence creates more opportunities for brand coverage than ever before, while maintaining the editorial gravitas that defines the Time brand. Our measurement framework captures impact across all Time platforms.
Types of Time Magazine Coverage We Secure
Time Features & News Coverage
Editorial features and news articles that position your brand within the stories shaping our world. Time features combine rigorous reporting with the narrative depth that has defined the publication for a century, creating coverage that carries authority and permanence unmatched by any other media outlet.
TIME100, Best Inventions & Annual Lists
Nomination and advocacy for Time’s prestigious annual recognitions — from the TIME100 Most Influential People to the Best Inventions list and Time’s sector-specific rankings. These coveted recognitions create global headlines and permanently associate your brand with the world’s most influential people and innovations.
Time Contributor & Thought Leadership
Secure contributor placements on Time.com, publishing thought leadership that reaches Time’s global audience. We develop compelling opinion pieces and analysis that position your leadership team as authoritative voices on the issues that define your industry and our era.
How We Secure Time Magazine Coverage
Our Time campaigns begin with significance framing — the process of articulating why your brand matters in the context of global trends and human progress. Time’s editors think in terms of historical impact, and our pitches are designed to demonstrate your brand’s place within that bigger picture. We identify the specific Time editorial vertical — Business, Health, Technology, Climate, or Ideas — where your story fits and develop a comprehensive pitch that provides editors with the narrative depth and supporting evidence they require.
Our relationships with Time editors and contributors across multiple verticals provide genuine access to the editorial conversations that shape Time’s coverage. We understand the publication’s unique editorial process — from initial pitch through rigorous fact-checking to final publication — and we prepare our clients for every stage. Post-placement, we manage amplification to maximise the impact of your Time feature across all channels. Our editorial team ensures every supporting element meets Time’s legendary standards.

The Lasting Impact of Time Coverage
Time Magazine coverage creates impact that compounds over years and decades.

Time’s domain authority of 94 provides exceptional SEO value. But the true power of Time coverage is its permanence — Time features are archived in libraries, cited in academic research, and referenced in business presentations for years after publication. Our clients report that Time coverage continues to generate business opportunities, speaking invitations, and partnership enquiries long after the initial publication date.
Client Success Stories
Clean Energy Company Named Best Invention
A clean energy startup developing breakthrough battery storage technology was nominated for Time’s Best Inventions list through our strategic advocacy programme. Their inclusion generated global headlines, drove investor approaches from three continents, and established the company as a category leader. The CEO was subsequently invited to participate in Time’s Climate Summit, creating additional visibility and partnership opportunities.
Social Enterprise Founder Gains Global Recognition
The founder of a social enterprise providing clean water solutions in developing countries needed a platform to amplify their impact story. We secured a Time feature profiling their innovative approach and measurable results. The coverage attracted a £5 million donation from a major foundation, partnership interest from two UN agencies, and invitations to speak at the World Economic Forum.
Healthcare Innovation Gains Policy Attention
A healthcare technology company developing AI-powered diagnostic tools needed credibility with regulators and policymakers. We secured a TIME Health feature exploring the potential of their technology to transform early disease detection. The article was cited in a congressional briefing paper, referenced by the NHS innovation team, and directly led to a regulatory fast-track review of their platform.
We report on what matters: publication authority scores, referral traffic generated, backlink quality, social amplification, and downstream business impact. You receive monthly reports showing exactly which placements were secured, their estimated reach, and how they contribute to your SEO profile. We measure success by whether our work moves the needle on fundraising, sales pipeline, and brand recognition—not by counting press release sends.

What's the difference between Time and other news magazines?
Time’s century-long brand recognition, its iconic annual lists (TIME100, Person of the Year), and its position as the global standard for significance journalism set it apart from all competitors. While other publications cover news, Time defines which news matters — and its coverage carries a permanence and authority that other magazines cannot match.
