Start e-mailing them. Keep your pitch email short and concise with a descriptive subject line that will tug at their eyeballs and keep their hand away from the Delete key and the opportunity begins there!
Don’t forget to always follow the instruction! If a blog asks for submissions in a certain way, do it that way. Bloggers receive tons of emails everyday and they set those guidelines for a reason. Make a good impression and you’re more likely to get posted.
