Wine Blogger Resource: Helpawinery.com

wine-guyWine bloggers, more importantly, American Wine Bloggers, are you getting wine samples? Most likely there is a mixed bag of both "yes" and "no" responses. Well, if you're interested in receiving samples, Josh over at the infamous Pinot Blogger has a new service called, Helpawinery.com, that connects wineries with wine bloggers interested in reviewing wines.

Lookery.com Breaks Down Wineblogger by Demographics

Image representing Lookery as depicted in Crun...Image via CrunchBaseLookery, an advertising and user-targeting network for websites, has recently featured Wineblogger.net on their front page! Statistically, Lookery mentions that Winebloggers primary traffic source is from the USA, and more specifically, from California and Georgia. Why would we have so much traffic from Georgia? Any thoughts? (you must register with Lookery to see the full statistical break-down of Wineblogger.info). Internationally, Sweden, Portugal, Netherlands and Spain are the four primary traffic sources, listed in consecutive order. What is interesting to me, is that neither the ...

That said, here is our list: QVinho Jackson and Jomar Brustolin are the two madmen behind this fabulous Brazilian food and wine blog! Sleek, well-designed, well-organized and jam packed with great content, it is without a doubt we would have to give them appropriate accolades ...

No More Predictions – Top 10 Things that WON’T Happen in the Online Wine World in 2009

Instrumental temperature record of the last 15... Image via Wikipedia I'm sick of it! Amateur prognosticators trying to tell us what trends to look for in 2009 when it comes to wine, the internet and social media. In then end, almost everyone starts out, "Well, last year I had almost none of my predictions come true, but I'll try again..." Do us a favor, and don't. That said, I can tell you one thing: what won't happen this year! Or rather, I'll place odds of 10 to 1 on any of the following items actually occurring. Seeing that we're here in Spain, I can guarantee that Spanish wineries will not move away from FLASH web design in favor of something useful, ...
