The Bloglancer Opportunities Board-Gift Guide edition, part 2
We’re back this week with a second blogging gift guide edition (check out part 1 here)
All the small brands listed below are looking to chat with bloggers about working together on gift guides. I have A LOT of brands who have requested being featured (I list them free of charge) so will be compiling several of these round-ups over the next few weeks.
Before we begin, I also wanted to let you know that tickets are now on sale for next month’s The Bloglancer presents… event! (AD-OWN EVENT)
Next month’s event is all about how to accelerate your blog traffic so you can work with advertisers and will bring together myself, Neesha from Reinventing Neesha, and Kacie from The Rare Welsh Bit. Together we have around 80,000 monthly page views and we’re going to be talking all about how to boost your traffic so you can do the same, as well as discussing different advertising networks to make money from your traffic.
A head’s up, you have until midnight on Tuesday 22nd September to get a 10% early bird discount using the code EARLYBIRD. For more info on the event, click here.
