According to Wikipedia, “a blog carnival is a type of blog event. It is similar to a magazine, in that it is dedicated to a particular topic, and is published on a regular schedule, often weekly or monthly.”
Blog carnivals can be powerful link building tools.
Basically, you submit your best blog posts to as many blog carnivals as you want. You can find thousands of blog carnivals at blogcarnival.com. You can even find blog carnivals that specialize in your niche.
Choose a blog carnival, fill out the submission form and be sure to include a summary of your post, then wait to see if your article is approved.
Once approved, you will get two backlinks – one to the article and one to your homepage. Now that’s linklove!
Follow up by thanking the blog carnival host and by participating in any conversations about your blog post.
Some blog carnivals require exclusive content, so you don’t want to submit the same blog post over and over again. Diversify by submitting many of your blog posts to various blog carnivals.
You can even start your own blog carnival if you wish.
