  <body-formatted>&lt;p&gt;We're looking for bloggers to review our products, and i'm trying to find the best way to do this. I've tried approaching relevant blogs but getting no response. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What do people think of services that are basically blog link brokers - such as http://linkfromblog.com or http://www.buyblogreviews.com/ ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I worry that anything gained through such a service will easily be picked up as a paid link. I believe our competitors are using such services though and starting to see results.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If these type of services are a bad idea then any suggestions on how to best identify and approach bloggers?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for any advice you can offer.&lt;/p&gt;</body-formatted>
