BloggerLinkUp is a free service that should be on every ad agency PR person’s radar because it helps attract the attention of bloggers. Blogger LinkUp is similar to HARO, which stands for Help A Reporter Out. HARO is a wonderful resource page where reporters can post stories for which they are looking for experts to interview. More than 50,000 journalists use this service – as do a whole lot of PR people looking for media outlets to present their clients’ or executives’ areas of expertise.

BloggerLinkUp connects bloggers looking for help with guest posts with people who are looking to get links and exposure by writing guest posts. There also are opportunities to have products reviewed by bloggers and to get in touch with bloggers who do interviews and need sources for stories.

All it takes to join BlogerLinkUp is to submit your name and e-mail address. Once or twice a day, Monday through Friday, you’ll receive e-mails listing bloggers looking for expert sources; requests for guest posts; bloggers and web masters offering guest posts; and PR reps and others seeking reviews of products. When you see a request that fits, you simply respond directly to the requester.
