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?

Hey! Do youu know if they make any plugins to help with SEO?
I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good success.
If you know of any please share. Many thanks!

This is so helpful!! Thank you!!
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!
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.
I am looking forward to reading this! I find this place incredibly valuable in knowledge and suggestions.
Great information! I really need to work on creating one of these for my blog.
I love seeing examples! Thanks for the tips and ideas.

Katy, excellent post! Love the gallery too. Definitely a great article to share.
Thanks!
Awesome! We totally need to update ours, so this will help a lot! 🙂
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’m on the same boat – I keep meaning to do this, but as of yet not done it. I’m glad we keep getting reminded 😉
Thanks! the encouragement of having loyal bloggers was what I needed to hear this morning! Mine are just that.
