Blog Tips: Getting Products to Review

~ Posted on Friday, March 30, 2012 at 9:01 AM ~

I have received a number of emails and comments from my followers asking how I get to review products and apps so I decided to list down my tips and post it (maybe weekly?) to share my experience and tips. Feel free to drop me an email or comment if you want to find out more or anything else.

Last week, I shared my first tip in getting products to review, which is JUST ASK! Here goes my second tip:

SNOOP AROUND!

Now what you need to do:

  • Yes, snoop around! Browse around the Internet - look out for other bloggers websites, preferably those that does lots of reviews! 
  • See what products they are reviewing.
  • You can also check out their 'REVIEWS' tab or archive posts to get more information.
  • Another way is to check out the sidebar of those big/popular blogs as these bloggers normally put up badges of being affiliated with or a member of some companies where they are reviewing the products from.
  • You can then check out the company or sponsors of the products being reviewed by these bloggers and email to ask for an opportunity to review their products. This then leads to my previous tip #1 which is JUST ASK!

I know of some bloggers who are following my blog who did the above as I can see after my review post was published, they too get to review the same product, so yes, I know you snooped around my blog! Hahaha...

So there you go, my 2nd blog tips on getting products to review.

Try it yourself and let me know the outcome! Stay tuned for my next blog tips next week!

** P.S: Please note that it is always better if your blog has good following and good PR rank as these factors help a lot when you request for a product to review.
