how to sort thru bloggers requesting reviews

3 replies
We get several request a day from bloggers who would like to review our product. How it works....we ship them free products and they use it. If they like it...they give you nice review on their blog. Is there quick way for me to do a search on their blog address that will give me a good idea of who we should select? How can I determine the level of real or live readers of that blog? Alexa?

here are two examples of two type of bloggers looking to do review:

1. http://www.crazy4subscriptionboxes.com/

2. http://www.jubileereviews.com/

any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Here are some of the criteria that I would use if I wanted to sort through bloggers:
    1. Posting Frequency - When was their last post? How often do they post/How many days between posts? How long will it be before they actually post a review for my product?
    2. Site Layout - Do I want my product to be forever tied to this site? Will it properly showcase my product?
    3. Site Structure - If I give them my product, how long before it gets lost in a sea of other posts? Will it be easy to find in a week?
    4. Post Structure - Do they make well-planned, thorough posts? Is it something they just throw together, or will they really review my product?

    All of these things can be determined in a minute or so just by looking at the post dates and how the site looks.

    I think giving your products to smaller sites is fine. Many times, they have a loyal fan-base so people who read the site are going to take the author's opinion seriously. Don't focus on social media numbers like facebook fans or twitter followers because those can be easily faked and some people just don't focus on it.

    Personally, I would give my product to jubileereviews because I love how clean the page looks and how the author uses nicely taken/formatted images.

    Have a nice day!

    Hum this is weird both url were purchased about the same time and they both contacted you at the same time hum ok.
    Well they are new websites and they don't have any authority the tool that you can use is http://moonsy.com it's a free website that allows you to do a bunch of different type of research on websites .Try to work with it to gather as much info as you can on them and others.
