Blogs: How long till you know it's right to contact a publisher to request a book?

Hey guys!
So i'm new to the blogging world and I was wondering when is the right time to contact a publishing company to ask them whether they will give you a final copy or arc of a novel?

Here's my blog, its quite new:

In my experience, every publisher and agent prefers different qualifications for book reviewers, so my advice is to start asking for ARC's whenever YOU feel ready. 

 

The first book I ever asked to review I actually got, and it was from a major publisher, and by an extremely accomplished and well-loved author.

Interesting, I didn't know that :)

Will follow your advice! Thanks  

Well, I would start small, Instead of going straight for ARC and such, try doing small E-mail Interviews, those usually start between 3 months of blogging. 

After that, you should start requesting Arc when you really start to make a name for yourself, or when you have close to 100 followers. Thats when authors see that your're one of the "big dogs"" and will most likely agree to and ARC.
