What Are Blog Carnivals Used For?
February 18th, 2010 | 
Author: Similar to a magazine or ezine, a blog carnival puts together a series of posts on a themed topic. The posts are usually based on a specific topic, which changes regularly and published on a weekly or monthly basis.
You can participate in blog carnivals by searching for sites that host blog carnivals or by hosting your own. Links are collected and then posted for blog readers to click through like a magazine. For readers, a blog carnival is a great way to find information and posts on a topic of interest. For bloggers, it’s a great way to get free traffic back to their site.
Whether you’re creating your own carnival or participating in someone else’s, a blog carnival is free. You must write a post that pertains to the theme (for instance, pet care) and then submit your link to the blog carnival host, by the deadline. You can choose to participate in as many carnivals as you like, each one will bring unique traffic to your blog.
Though blog carnivals can be published weekly or monthly, the link backs to your content can continue long after it’s over as others discover your content.
