They’re asking if you have a Twitter or a personal website and I’m wondering if I should include either just a link to my Oppo handle or the Blogspot I run which is... !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and has a tendency to do a lot of off-topic political ranting (granted, it’s ranting that they’d probably agree with but still). I’m not sure if they’d be hurtful or helpful.

Sounds like they just want to see some writing samples. I'd include links, maybe with the appropriate qualifiers about the topic.

I would assume they are looking for one’s ability to generate interests and clicks, so just send them the web traffic report for your blog and it’s all Gucci.

Are they decent examples of your writing? I’m talking about the overall quality, not the subject matter. They want to know that you can write, so prove it to them. Definitely include your Oppo handle so they can see you’re into cars, especially if your writing samples are not about cars.
