Pressbox (Press Release) -
Fuelmyblog.com, a UK based, global social network of bloggers, recently started a product review service linking well known brands with bloggers and social media. Fuelmyblog is totally spam and porn free, with a team manually approving each and every new blog signing up.
More and more people are turning to the internet for product reviews with virtual trust taking over that of family and friends. An example would be being recommended to purchase a brand-X camera by a relative and yet on Amazon, fifty negative reviews on that camera with thirty positive recommendations for brand-Y. Research shows that brand-Y camera would be purchased.
With the current economic crisis, online is the most cost effective route to marketing a brand or product and practically eliminates the need for expensive campaigns. Reaching out to bloggers is the perfect way to embrace social media, create online buzz and grow a brand online. By using Fuelmyblog, direct contact to the bloggers is available and provides a trusted source with a strong relationship.
How does it work?
Companies working with Fuelmyblog simply select blogs to work on a campaign with (the site has bloggers from across the globe), the bloggers have opted- in to receive and review products and services. The products are then sent directly to the blogger with some company background to try or taste and then write an honest review based upon their findings. The blogger is not paid for the review and simply keep the goods. This ensures totally unbiased reviews and thus raising trust levels with the bloggers readers and internet surfers. Full reporting and buzz monitor assistance is included.
Services available are:-
Product Testing , Website Reviews – Ecommerce only, Restaurant and Hotel Reviews
