If you are looking for a media kit example…especially as a smaller blogger…then you’ve come to the right place.
As a blogger, there are key pieces of information about your blog you want to make sure you share with prospective businesses. Sometimes brands want to get to know a little more about you before they approach you to see if you’re a good fit for their needs. Having a media kit ready to go right on your blog makes your site that much more friendly to companies.
Media Kit Example for Bloggers
Media kits are kind of like resumes — they should be compact, include only the most relevant and timely information and should be a conversation starter. They don’t need to answer all of the questions a brand may have and honestly, it’s better if they don’t.
Consider them like a movie trailer…a great introduction to you and your blog. Brands will use these kits to decide whether or not to move forward with a longer discussion, and that should be your goal. You probably won’t book a job or a project solely on the weight of this kit, so consider it the cocktail hour that you hope will lead to a sit-down dinner.
So, how big should it be? And what should be included, especially if you don’t have as many page views or inbound links as other bloggers?

I keep trying to remember to do this. I’ve now bookmarked the site. I need to add it to my TO DO list as well. I know I should have one for both my blogs. So important. Thanks. Have a blessed day!

I have been rattling my noggin on how to go about writing out a media kit, but figured it would have to wait until I had more traffic. Thank you so very much for sharing this. Now I can get my material together and create one.

OK, I’m definitely a small blogger. I kinda knew I needed to get working on a media kit even though I’m so small, but I wasn’t really sure what to put in there since my numbers are pretty underwhelming. Now that I have these fantastic examples, I know what I can put together. Thank you!
