Blog Carnival For Bloggers, and the Casual Reader

If you're learning about or following blog carnivals, Blog Carnival is the place for you!

We have the most complete directory of blog carnivals on the web. For most carnivals, we have a listing of all the editions the carnival hosts have created, along with descriptions and links. You can search for carnivals based on category or keywords, so you can find carnivals and editions faster here than anywhere else. Our search service provides results from past carnival editions and blog posts accepted by carnival hosts, so you can search a very high quality subset of the blogosphere on most topics.

You can track carnivals, too. When you find a carnival you like, you can subscribe to notices about the carnival by email or RSS feed. Every time the carnival you've subscribed to schedules a new edition or posts an edition, you receive a notification with a link to check it out. Don't forget to recommend carnivals to friends, too.

If you're a blogger (and who isn't these days), you may want to contribute your posts to a carnival. Why? If you're like most bloggers, you write about a variety of topics. Carnivals aggregate articles on particular topics, so you can get your posts in front of interested readers who wouldn't normally see them. Since carnivals usually include only a short description of your article and possibly an excerpt, carnival readers who are interested in your article will click through to read the full article on your website, and often hang around to read other things you've written.

Blog Carnival provides a submission form where you can submit your blog articles (along with your comments). With all the carnivals out there, you'll be able to find a carnival to match your article. Your submission goes directly to the carnival host for consideration in the next edition of the carnival. Soon we'll give you ways to track your post submissions, too, so you'll be notified when your posts are included in a carnival.
