The approach makes sense, but something about spamming tons of blog owners turns me off.
I've used a similar approach, but only with the blogs that I had either made personal contact with previously or that I frequented.
On another note, your blogroll/Reader subscriptions are a great place to start if you follow other bloggers in your industry. Being an active member of the blogosphere also helps give you some clout.
- petercooper 17y agoAs the owner of a blog that's #1 in its niche in the range of those described (10k-50k subscribers), I'm not against getting unsolicited messages at all if they're relevant and my readers would find it interesting. Indeed, I don't receive enough mail like that.. :)
- joeythibault 17y agofair enough. You've just given me the confidence to contact as many bloggers as I can (as long as they specifically pertain to our market). Thanks!!!
- petercooper 17y agoBe careful though. It's not as simple as just contacting them all. You really, really, really, really need a story that's of the sort they actually publish. I get relevant press releases from time to time that are in my industry/field but are so "corporatey" that there's little my readers would really care about. Twist whatever you have to say into a story that fits the mold of what the blog already posts - it might take reading their entire front page to get a feel for this ;-)
