Other ways that you can begin reaching out to contributors to publications include:
Rating and reviewing them on iTunes if they have a podcast
Watching videos on their YouTube channel and leaving thoughtful comments
Reviewing their books on Amazon or GoodReads
Providing a testimonial for a product or service they’ve made (an example may be a course you’ve taken or a book you’ve purchased)
No matter how you’re interacting with these contributors, be sure it’s something they’re likely to see at some point personally—and do your best to ensure your name (or profile image) sparks at least some familiarity over the weeks or months to come.
2. Share Their Content on Your Own Social Channels
Sharing the content a particular contributor has written (both for the azerbaijan phone number library and elsewhere online) through your social media channels is a good step forward… but it probably shouldn’t be the only value you add.

If you have a large social media following (and can drive some engagement with the contributor), this may be a very desirable and noticeable value-add to the contributor. But it may not be as appealing if you have a small following and your social media shares don’t convert into an uptick in mentions or traffic for the contributor.
Remember, your goal is to provide value in the ways your contributor (likely) wants to receive it. This leads me to my next point…
3. Mention Contributors in an Article You’re Writing
Mentioning contributors directly in your own blog posts (or in the guest posts you write for other authoritative websites), is another easy way to offer real value to them.
It’s relatively low effort, but it can also be extremely effective if you have a decent number of readers either on your own blog or on the site where the article gets published. I’ve used this outreach approach many times to successfully build relationships with influencers (and help grow my blog) over the years. Here’s an example of that approach in practice:
