Northern Light Dramatically Increases News Sources and Blogs in Business News

Today we announced that our Business News service now exceeds 6,000 editorially-selected sources from:

  • business news services
  • local, national and international newspapers
  • leading business publications
  • online newswires
  • industry authority blogs
  • company white papers

Northern Light Business News provides researchers
with instant access to over 10 million business and industry news
articles and blog postings. The index is updated continually with
approximately 22,000 news articles and 4,000 industry authority blog
posts each day.

Northern Light Business News is available as part of SinglePoint hosted market research portals; in Analyst Direct - a subscription-based search engine for information technology (IT) analyst research; and in stand-alone Northern Light Business News Portals.  In addition, a consumer version containing a significant portion of the content can be used for free at Northern Light Search (http://www.nlsearch.com).

As our CEO David Seuss said:

“Over the past two years, there has been a sea change in the availability of high quality information from vertical industry and business news websites. Web sources have always been timely, but now more and more business-focused sites are using the techniques and philosophies of the blogging phenomena to move away from just reprinting press releases to providing commentary, analysis, and perspective. As a result, the role of this Web-based content in competitive intelligence, market research, reputation management, and product management has expanded dramatically.

“Across the board, we are finding that our strategic research portal clients need business research incorporating the deep industry expertise that can be found in news from industry websites. With this new release of Northern Light Business News, we have greatly enhanced the business research content that our corporate clients can bring to bear on the important issues facing their companies in today’s hyper-competitive environment.”
