Editor : Alison Bayne
Summary: I am the editor of the Mumtopia blog, a role I
combine with being a mother of two, an eco-worrier, home-maker, and a
carpenter's mate. As we live on one income, I am extremely resourceful and this
Make Do and Mend attitude is reflected in my fascination for the Home Front.
The main strength of my blog is that it is down-to-earth and
at the same time, uplifting. Instead of being full of my daily gripes and moans, Mumtopia is full of things
that are positive, things that work, things that'll make life better.
Benefits to Companies and Advertisers:
• Positive take on life, not always found on Mum blogs!
• Focus on what works for mums, what makes life easier, better,
cheaper, simpler
• Mixture of practical, down-to-earth tips and uplifting, inspirational
content
Focus:
Learning from the past
Living well on a budget
Make Do and Mend
Content: Readers come to Mumtopia to find how they can make
their lives easier and better, to read posts they can relate to, and to be
entertained and informed. They also come to take part in giveaways, find special offers, and get freebies.
Press: I have been quoted at The Confident Mom. I have also
been featured in several blog hops in 2013 – The Breezy Birdie, EcoKids, Poor and Gluten Free, Hope in Every Season and Farmgirl
Friday and hosted a blog hop with The Breezy Birdie and The Creative HomeAcre.

Perhaps my readers' panel members could review your product, and I could run a giveaway alongside it. I could write a feature about your product or service and we could arrange a special offer for my readers, for example.
Companies I’ve worked with recently in this manner include:
Innerscents
Hillarys Blinds
MySupermarket

It's often worth considering running a competition or a giveaway alongside any feature I write, as the response and interest is always far greater and therefore better for you.
Adverts/ Sponsored postsI'm also happy to consider advertising or sponsorship - please email me for my advertising rates. For a purely sponsored post, with no product to review, please contact me with your budget, deadline, requirements and word count.
