I wanted to tell you one thing that can help you dramatically. HAVE A CONTACT ME PAGE AND PUT IT ON YOUR MENU BAR!
Why?
Picture this scenario…
A sponsor comes by your page and loves your content. They decide that you would be a great fit for an upcoming campaign or ad. They decide that they want to talk to you about it. They want to find out how much you charge, how many links you will include and so on…
So, they look for it: CONTACT ME.
They can’t find it.
They check your ABOUT ME page. No email address in there.
What do they do next? They leave & head onto the next blogger.
The same thing goes for a reader. I am always left a little down when I go to contact a blogger via email to tell them how they’ve helped or to ask about how I can share their ebook, etc… and I can’t find a way to contact them.
I am also not a huge fan of contact forms, but to each their own (as my grandma said “different strokes for different folks”). E-mailing just feels so much more personal to me. When I fill out a contact form, I feel like I am filling out an application. They are probably convenient (I don’t have one, so I don’t know), but I’m just not crazy about them.
You are awesome & you create great stuff that people want to share. They want to talk to you and connect with you, so show them how! LEAD THEM to you… and make it obvious!
