You'll have a ~0% response rate if you copy & paste the same generic letter to the bloggers. you have to personalize the note. if i was a blogger, i would stop at "hello" --> you don't even know my name? also, keep in mind that these are bloggers. they're not your grey-haired journalists. you don't need to sound robotic. my best advice would be to write a conversational note.
