Congratula...Thanks for letting us use your pitch! <br /><br />Congratulations on getting tweeted! That's always exciting. To track your views, I'd recommend Google Analytics--it comes free with any free gmail account, and all you need to do is post a bit of invisible code into your blogspot header. <br /><br /><i> I have also come to the realization that starting out your e-mail with, “I was just on your blog and *compliment, compliment, compliment* or *relate to the blogger in a personal way*” is twice or possibly thrice as likely to illicit a response from the blogger.</i><br /><br />As an editor for a review site, this is so, so true. We look for anything to set a query email apart, and a lot of the times, a few positive comments about are site will win a query letter 40 more seconds of consideration. Plus, most bloggers appreciate being told that the person asking for their time has put some of his or her own time into the request. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
