Come To The Carnival

I am spreading the word about the event coming up in the blogosphere. My friend Kilroy_60 is having a celebration in honor of his four years of blogging. The celebration is a blog carnival.  I’ll be participating in the carnival and I hope you will. Carnival day is October 29, 2009, the day of his four-year Blogiversary.

Kilroy, has hosted and participated in many blog carnivals. He provided me with an overview of how carnivals work and what bloggers should do to benefit from participating. This is my first time ever participating in a blog carnival.

What is a Blog Carnival :

A Blog Carnival is an opportunity to discover other blogs. Bloggers who submit their articles to carnivals are rewarded with traffic (if the host decides to give them a link) and a possibility of a review.

The first blog carnival was in 2002. It was named, the Carnival of the Vanities. I think a carnival is the perfect way to unit the blogging community with a celebration and introduction to many authors.

This is what this is all about, getting new visitors… meeting other bloggers… receiving more comments… having the possibility of new link exchanges… gaining more regular visitors… finding ideas that will make your blogging more successful and, of course, surfing to great sites!

The Rules:

  1. You can write about whatever you like.
  2. Send your article link, along with your name and a link to your blog, to kilroy60@gmail.com .
  3. Your article must be sent before Sunday, Oct 25, 11:59 pm EST
  4. Entries are being accepted Now.

I have never participated in a blog carnival but I have done lot’s of guest posting. Sound like this is similar in nature, only with many participant all at once. I’ll be happy to write something up for the carnival. I’ve already got something in mind actually. ;-)

OK, a few questions.

1. Can you submit a favorite post or does it have to be a new article?
2. I get a link if accepted, but what does Kilroy get out of it?
3. How about a link to Kilroy’s blog so that we can check it out.

I must admit it sounds like a great idea, so much so I may even give it a shot.

Hi Sire~

Click on the header that will take you directly to Kilroy_60’s article.
I am submitting a couple I have published and maybe one in the works.

To my knowledge Kilroy is gets what we get the opportunity to discover more blogs and be discovered ourselves.

If you want email him at the above link. kilroy60@gmail.com

I am just a messenger here. I believe it is a great chance to meet others and build a solid community.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you for this information! I used to submit to more blog carnivals, but the quality of many has declined considerably, at least in my limited experience. For a while it was pretty amazing: people did submit their best posts, and the networking was great.

I think I’d better submit and help Kilroy celebrate. Thanks again for the info!

Four years of blogging – wow. I’ve been blogging for less than two years and feel like I’ve been doing it forever!

Is a carnival similar to World Blog Day…or Lance’s breast cancer awareness e-book?
I would like to do this – the timing is really awful for me…..
I need to come back and read this again…
