September 30, 2020 By in Blogging Tips Tags: , , , , , , , , , , 3 Comments

I have been running Fashion and Style Police since October 2012. It took me ages to figure out how to make a living from my blog. I still remember my first paid blogging collaboration. It happened when my blog was 4 months old and it was a whooping £25! Now that was snack money even back in 2012 but I still remember being very excited that a brand wanted to work with me. If you are wondering where to find sponsored posts and blogging collaborations you are reading the right post. I will be sharing 5 places to find paid blog collaborations so you can start making some money off your blog. We are all experiencing all sorts of things at the moment and with the whole working from home scenario, you now have the time to work even more on your blogs.

Where to find sponsored posts and blogging collaborations
Get Blogged

I have been working with Get Blogged for some months now and I really like how they operate. It is a great platform to find paid blogging gigs. There are sponsored posts opportunities for every type of blogs, even new blogs with a low domain authority. You need a domain authority of at least 10 to apply for jobs and the higher your domain authority is, the more opportunities for your blog and the more money you get. They also pay quickly and the briefs are always detailed and straightforward. I enjoy working with Get Blogged a lot. Register your blog and see for yourself.

Getfluence

I started working with Getfluence this year. It is another great platform to find well paid blogging collaborations. For this platform, you get contacted once an advertiser is interested in your blog. The payment is usually processed within 10 days once the blog post is live, and the blogging briefs are also very straightforward. It is always a pleasure working with Getfluence. You can register your blog and try the platform for yourself.

Bloggers Required

I have used Bloggers Required for years to find paid blogging jobs. I have worked with hundreds of brands through the platform. It is always a great spot to start looking for sponsored blog posts. There are loads of sponsored ads and you just register interest for the ads that work with your blog.

Twitter

Twitter is always a great platform to find paid blogging jobs. You can search for collaborations using #prrequest #journorequest #bloggerrequest and so on. You can also search for SEOs and PRs and give them a follow. If there is an email on their bio, sending a quick introductory email is another great way to get their eyeballs on your blog.

Facebook Groups

I find Facebook groups very useful for finding sponsored posts requests. Some great groups are “UK Influencer Opportunities” and “Blogger Opportunities”.

I hope you find this post useful and start making some money off your blog. If you are interested in growing your blog to the point where brands want to work with you, do contact me via email – fashionandstylepolice@gmail.com and take advantage of my blog coaching service.

Thanks for reading. Have a great day.

 

 

 

 

5 tricks for an attractive profile picture

September 29, 2020 By in Lifestyle Tags: , , , , , , 3 Comments

*Collaborative post.

We always want to look our best online and that is why filters are so popular. Whether you are on a dating site looking for love or on a social media platform interested in more hookups, having an attractive profile picture is very important. The right profile picture will showcase your personality and your true self. You don’t want to give anyone the wrong ideas and you want people to have a good idea of who you are just by looking at your photo. If you have previously struggled in the photo department and you are wondering how to get the right profile picture, you may find this blog post really useful. Here are 5 tricks for an attractive profile picture –

Upclose and personal

When it comes to profile pictures, you have a little time to make a good impression. On dating sites, it is usually a quick glance that determines your fate so focus on every tiny detail. With profile pictures, I like them upclose and personal so my face is really visible. The less distractions the better, so no hats or sunglasses. I like the attention to be on the face so people can get to see the real me.

5 Tricks for an attractive profile picture image

Having a pop of red

This is one of the easiest tricks in the book. Having a pop of red on your profile picture instantly brightens it up. This shade of red could be your outfit or your lipstick. It doe really matter where as long as it shows and blends in perfectly. I love having my pop of red on my lips. It works perfectly. My MAC Ruby Woo always looks so good.

Easy on the filters

You want your profile picture to be as attractive as possible but also be the real you. Having a profile picture that looks nothing like you in real life would do you no good in the long run especially on a dating site like Match Me Happy. You don’t want to get people interested in an urnrealistic version of you, so easy on the filters.

Dress to impress

You obviously want to look your best so you should dress to impress. Having an attractive profile picture that would look good on social media platforms and free dating sites is important. You don’t want to look too ordinary. The best way to about this is to dress like you are going to a nice event. That way you are sure you are looking your best.

Stick to neutral backgrounds

With profile pictures, you want all the attention to be on the face. So sticking to a neutral background is the smart thing to do. Busy backgrounds will   only take the attention away from your pretty face. The more neutral the background, the better.

I am really excited to tell you all about this amazing skincare product. The BeBarefaced Brightening Rice Oil Mask is one of my new skincare products. I have been using it for some weeks now and I really like it. Like I mentioned in my last beauty post, I am on the hunt for Vegan and cruelty free products. I found a couple I am currently testing and this BeBarefaced Brightening Rice Oil Mask is one of them. It is such a cool product and it does all it promises to do.

BeBarefaced Brightening Rice Oil Mask is enriched with Japan’s anti ageing secret rice bran oil. This face mask is formulated to naturally even skin tone and reduce dark spots.

How to use

I apply the face mask to a cleansed face. It is left on for about 10 minutes and rinsed off with warm water. I use it twice a week to achieve the desired results.

PROS
  1. This face mask brightened my face within days. I noticed a significant brightness after 2 uses.
  2. I love the thick creamy consistency.
  3. It is great for all skin types.
  4. I love the fact that this product is vegan and cruelty free.
  5. You can grab this product from most beauty stores. I got mine from Amazon. You can get yours from the website via the link below.
  6. The practical packaging works great. I am glad it didn’t come in a tube.
  7. At first, I wasn’t sure about it being a non drying mask. I usually use drying masks but I now that I have used it a couple of times, I really it.
  8. I love the fragrance a lot.
CONS

None.
