Get Featured in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Guaranteed Sponsored Feature or Editorial Pitch (2026)

The best way to get featured in the St. Louis Post from the UK in 2026 is a named, editorial feature. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch is Missouri’s largest newspaper, founded by Joseph Pulitzer in 1878 and owned today by Lee Enterprises. It covers the St. Louis metro area on both sides of the Mississippi with a business desk, Cardinals and Blues sport, and community reporting. For brands there are two routes: a sponsored feature on stltoday.com, which we can guarantee, and editorial coverage, which we pitch and never promise. This page explains both.

The Post-Dispatch in 2026: what it is and who reads it

Coverage runs across metro news, business (healthcare, biotech around the Cortex district, manufacturing, logistics, financial services and the region’s large private companies), Cardinals, Blues and college sport, dining, entertainment and Missouri and Illinois politics. Readers are St. Louis residents, the regional business community and a large sports diaspora. stltoday.com has a Moz Domain Authority of 86.

Route one: a guaranteed sponsored feature

Through our publishing partners we place a full sponsored feature on stltoday.com. It is written by us, approved by you, labelled as sponsored or partner content in line with the publisher’s rules, and published with a nofollow link, which is standard for this title. The publisher’s production time is about seven days; we quote an outside date of about three weeks from copy approval. It suits regional businesses, companies expanding into St. Louis, and founders who want a recognised Missouri newspaper credential on a fixed date.

Route two: editorial coverage

The business desk covers openings, expansions, hiring, investments, deals and the region’s dominant sectors. The story needs local jobs, a local address, a named person and a number. We pitch the beat reporter with a short note and a same-day spokesperson, follow up once, and report every reply. Timelines run one to six weeks, without guarantee.

What Post-Dispatch readers stop for in 2026

  • Jobs coming to the region, or a company choosing St. Louis over another city.
  • Biotech, healthcare and agtech stories linked to the Cortex district, Washington University or the region’s research base.
  • Restaurant openings, redevelopment downtown and in the neighbourhoods.
  • Local founders with revenue, customers and a clear story.
  • Sports business connected to the Cardinals, Blues or St. Louis City SC.

How the guaranteed route works

  1. Brief. Angle, message, images and the link.
  2. Draft. Written to the newspaper’s register, approved by you.
  3. Publisher review and scheduling.
  4. Live URL delivered with a screenshot.
