I'm a full-time mummy

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 fourth tips in getting products to review, which is CONTACT ME! Here goes my fifth tip:

POST YOUR REVIEWS!

Of course after you reviewed the product, you need to post your review, but what I also meant is,

POST YOUR REVIEWS TO AS MANY COMMERCIAL WEBSITES AS POSSIBLE!

Now what you need to know & do:

• Once you have completed your review, post it up on your blog.
  
• Then, make sure you also put up the review into as many commercial websites as you possibly can.
  
• Commercial website such as Amazon can be used for reviews on books, apps and products (look up the product you are reviewing, if they can be found on Amazon, post your review there too!) But do note that you can only post reviews on Amazon if you have bought something from them before. I think it is to do with your credibility in posting your reviews, kinda like, you bought something from Amazon, so if you publish your review on a product, it is more credible.
  

There you go, my 5th 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.

Last week, I shared my third tips in getting products to review, which is TWITTER & FACEBOOK! Here goes my fourth tip:

CONTACT ME!

No, I don't mean you need to contact me! What I meant is,

MAKE SURE IT'S EASY FOR PEOPLE TO CONTACT YOU!

Now what you need to know & do:

• It is very important to provide a way for people / PR reps / companies to contact you.
  
• In this case, if it is difficult to locate your 'Contact Me' link, then chances are high you won't get any opportunities to review anything.
  
• I have a lot of review opportunities where the company actually wrote in to ask whether I am interested in reviewing their products.
• One rule of thumb I believed in is your contact button should be easily visible in your main page and can be located within 10 seconds.

Last week, I shared my second tip in getting products to review, which is SNOOP AROUND! Here goes my third tip:

TWITTER & FACEBOOK!

Yes, amongst the gazillions Tweets and updates popping every seconds, you can still find treasure (in this case product reviews) in it!

Now what you need to do:

• Make sure you have a Twitter and Facebook accounts (well, you can still see Tweets or Facebook updates if you don't have a Twitter and Facebook accounts but it is better if you have an account so that potential sponsors can contact you back!
  
• For Twitter, look out for keywords like 'product for reviews' or 'looking for bloggers' etc. If you see any Tweets of review pitches, reply the Tweet and let them know you are interested! I have personally received a lot of products to review just by searching via Twitter!
• For Facebook, watch out for reviews posted or pictures tagged etc on other bloggers' fanpages! You'll be surprised I actually get products to review from Facebook too!
• Btw, do you know I sometimes shared out review and/or giveaway opps on my Facebook page too? So yes, don't forget to follow my Facebook page too!
