Blogger
benefits- A guide to sites and programs
every blogger should know about, and needs to know about.
I have
found quite a few hidden gems in my blogging journey and have found a pile of
resources I think every blogger should know about. I used to be the one who
plays her cards close to heart but these selected few sites are too good not to
share with other Bloggers/Vloggers!
A Perfect
place to apply for review products and events-
Social Callout- http://beta.socialcallout.com
Social Callout helps
bloggers and social media influencers connect more easily with brands and
businesses..
Brands post targeted
callouts to engage with social media influencers and, if you find the callout
appealing, you connect directly with the brand/business.
So if you’re a mummy
blogger you’ll receive callouts only from brands/businesses in categories
you’re specifically interested in.
If you love sport and have
a large Twitter following, you won’t be receiving callouts from fashion
companies. But you might get an offer for tickets to the World Cup.
A Bloggers
MUST HAVE
Social Diary- http://www.socialdiary.com.au
This is a
fantastic site that contains everything from a PR’s and event diary to callouts
and product samples available. If you are looking to expand your contacts and
get your blog out there, this is an amazing resource. But having all these
contacts at your fingertips will come with a price tag for everyday bloggers
like myself!
If you are
looking for new products to review or advertising then this is for you-
Nuffnang- http://www.nuffnang.com.au/
Nuffnang is the
world's leading blog advertising community, for people who share the
passion for blogging like we do! Our community currently reaches out to more

My one stop
shop for everything beauty including contacts-
Beauty Directory- http://www.beautydirectory.com.au
beautydirectory
is a members-only website for Australian beauty journalists and industry
insiders. An invaluable resource, it is a database of thousands of products and
has a comprehensive media and PR directory.
An American
based site but I have been sent things from here-

Brand Meets Blog- http://www.brandmeetsblog.com/for-bloggers/

range of dedicated services to brands and bloggers who want to achieve

for you to take control by harnessing the power
of savvy consumer influencers to create thousands of authentic conversations
and recommendations about your brand, product or service. These powerful
conversations translate to credible on & offline exposure, invaluable
evergreen online content and lead to direct sales
and long-term brand

fellow bloggers some help and even new opportunities J Please feel free to add your sites that every
blogger/vlogger should know about!
