Reviewing Products on Your Book Blog (Etsy, CafePress, etc)

[Erika D.]

Hi all, I have noticed some of the book blogs I read periodically review products on their blogs like items from CafePress, book shelves, etc. My main book blog is all about indie products and I've always wanted to add an extra touch of indie by talking about products from www.etsy.com. Then this week I found out that are whole blogs just devoted to reviewing etsy products. I'd really love to get involved in this too but don't want to start a whole new blog for that so I would review them on the book blog I mentioned.

 

My question is for those of you who have reviewed other products on your book blog how has this worked for you? How do you get in contact with people to set it up? And do your readers respond well to these type of posts?

 

As a reader of a book blog is this something you would want to see more of, and if yes, how often do you think is enough? If you like reading indie books, would you also like to see more indie things like products from etsy or are the book reviews enough?

 

I have set up a review policy for products here. If there is something you think I am missing it would be nice to know, thanks :)

 

Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I don't review products as such, just post about cute book-related ones I find! I don't contact the sellers, just post links. http://bellesbookshelf.blogspot.com/search/label/bookish%20buys
