They should have set you up with a free car for a year – like an baseball player. Image the publicity they would get as you drive your new BMW around the Internet.

Nice looking shirt. Do polos pull more weight than t-shirts when choosing which to feature each Friday?

Well, thank you Shoeymoney :) Motor Werks is the main sponsor of our website. The idea started as I am working for them and I decided to create a website that explains better the BMW European Program and it gives out more information that the official BMW site would. Since then, the site was featured in WSJ, Yahoo Finance, some local newspapers and also, I was interviewed but ABC7 and the newscast was shown in several states on the evening news. Which was a great accomplishment for us since we didn’t use any marketing tools, everybody came to us because of the site.
Then my partner came out with the idea of a car blog, and especially focused on the BMW brand since there was none out there that really made a difference. And here we are, less than a year later, and we managed to have about 100k visitors a month, not bad at all for just two people running the whole thing :) Through our blog we try to offer the latest news and we also help our readers with buying tips or other car related information. We are also active on several car related forums and people kinda like us because we truly offer honest information and we’re not trying to sell anything basically.
We also managed to keep the blog fairly clean of Google Ads so the readers will enjoy the experience. Anyway, enough bragging :) Thanks again Jeremy, I appreciate it, and I know the t-shirt is not the best out there but it was the first one ever made. I have already boxed up some cooler things for you which you really don’t need to show on your blog( a cool original BMW hat and an awesome BMW Coffee mug, you will love those ;)

Do you prefer the polo shirt to the t-shirt?

I don’t think my comment went through the first time :) So, Motor Werks is the main sponsor for edBMW but the edBMW.com/blog is an independent blog that covers news from the automobile industry, focusing on the BMW brand. The main website was launched to educate the buyers on what BMW European Delivery program offers. After a while, my partner decided to start an indepdend blog and we have managed to have around 100k visitors/month within a year or so and it still grows at around 15-20% monthly, which I think it’s amazing. Being featured in WSJ, Yahoo Finance and other local newspapers has definitely helped a lot. Because the BMW European Delivery became so popular, I was interviewed by the ABC7 news crew and it was aired all over the U.S. We’re also proud that we managed to keep the blog fairly clean of Google Ads so the reader will enjoy their reading experience more.
Anyway, thank you Jeremy for the article and expect more gifts from us soon, but this time better ones :) (hint: BMW coffee mug, BMW original Hat, etc… )

well, you’ll never know :) Maybe if we’re getting some powerful advertisers then…it might happen :) Would that be the biggest prize ever offered by a blog?

But have you actually worn this shirt while piloting the Hummer? Isn’t that hypocrisy? :)
PS – Could you ask Rebecca if she’d be willing to do Lingerie Mondays on this blog?

Reply

30 Tracy Robinson October 21, 2007 at 10:18 am

I second Rebecca doing Lingerie Mondays, or better yet she could do lingerie everyday but friday while still dispensing great advice, nothing like brains and booty, uh, I mean beauty.
