So, ya’ll know how I have a nutrition blog, right? I didn’t snag a high page rank, nor do I have loads of page views. I do get one or two ad clicks a week, but that’s about it. It’s only 2 1/2 months old, however.

But here’s something cool. A week or two ago, I received two emails- one right after the other- about my site.

The first that I read was an offer of a guest post. I didn’t think much about it at the time except that I was more than glad to get some free content. But, I wanted to check out their blog first, and I didn’t get around to that.

The second was an offer of product for review. So, I checked it out, called my mother up to make sure that it’s safe, and decided that I would indeed like to review the product. However, I forgot to actually tell the offerer that. Doh.

So a few days ago, I remembered to tell the product person that I’d love to review the product. Last night I got a huge, heavy package. The only thing I’d ordered in weeks was a cd, so I figured it was probably the product. But, really? So large? So heavy? I was expecting samples?

So I opened the box as soon as I got it indoors, and holy cow! 2 full size bottles of one product, two full size bottles of another product and a HUGE jug of another product. Wow. Um….

I remembered from the website that the products weren’t cheap, but couldn’t remember how much they were worth. So I went upstairs and looked it up. Almost $200 worth in total, not counting shipping. Color me impressed!

This is about 1-2 months supply if you use the full amount of each item every day that you’re supposed to. I’m sure the guy doesn’t want to wait that long for his review, but as I’m going on vacation soon, it’ll probably be a month or so before I get to write up a review.

So then, I decided to check out the potential guest poster’s blog. Again, wow. Very professional, well written, not in the least spammy, very positive, upbeat, etc. Wow. And they approached me!

I haven’t posted on that blog since Jan 2nd, but I think February is shaping up to be a very good month on that blog!
