Building traffic on your blog is one of the key in increasing your Page Rank. So I’m constantly searching for ways on how I can drive traffic to my blog and get optimization services for free. And that is how I discover blog carnivals.One way to build traffic on your blog is by joining blog carnivals. So what is a blog carnival? I got this definition from BlogCarnival.com.
===
“A Blog Carnival is a particular kind of blog community. There are many kinds of blogs, and they contain articles on many kinds of topics. Blog Carnivals typically collect together links pointing to blog articles on a particular topic. A Blog Carnival is like a magazine. It has a title, a topic, editors, contributors, and an audience. Editions of the carnival typically come out on a regular basis (e.g. every Monday, or on the first of the month). Each edition is a special blog article that consists of links to all the contributions that have been submitted, often with the editor’s opinions or remarks. “

So how do you join a blog carnival? First, you have to find a blog carnival that interest you where you would like to contribute. You can find a list of blog carnivals from the blog carnival index of BlogCarnival.com. Then you have to write an entry on your blog related to the carnival topic that you selected. Then you have to submit the URL of the article that you have written on your blog to the host of the blog carnival.
Another option is creating your own carnival. You just need to sign up with BlogCarnival.com to create your own carnival where you will be the host. It will then be included in the list of BlogCarnival.com where others can read it and join. Or you can start your carnival in your own blog and invite your fellow bloggers to join by leaving a comment on your blog with the link to the post that they have written.
I’m so excited to try this. One of the blog carnivals that I always see on my fellow bloggers’ blog is the Friday Feast. I will check it out on Friday and see how blog carnivals work.
