Top Bloggers, food bloggers, fashion bloggers: These blogs were featured recently in various magazines, so the traffic to these blogs should be much higher during the coming months. Act now to get in on that traffic. Why should you care about these bloggers? Because: If you have a book related to food, decorating, home DIY, fashion, beauty, or gardening, these bloggers should hear from you.

First, read some of their blog posts. Second, find out who is behind the blog (the main author or editor). Third, submit information to that person.

If they like doing interviews, offer to be interviewed by them (and, even better, offer to interview them for your blog).

If they like doing book reviews, offer to send them a review copy of your book.

If they do guest blog posts, offer to write them a guest blog post. Be specific on the post you would write for them.

If they feature videos from other people, offer to provide them with an interesting and useful video for their audience.

Check out the following blogs. Note: Since I first published this list, I have added a few bloggers recommended by other magazines as well.
