It is not good enough to just pitch bloggers. It is also important to target your audience (and also target your message), be willing to offer a gift (it doesn’t have to be swag, it can be anything: arcane knowledge, help, support, or access), and to actually be an active social media participant (people will check up on your story, that’s for certain).

I do a pretty good job at all of these things and even I find myself up the flag pole periodically, too.
