In simple terms, blog carnivals are a particular type of blog community. The major point to remember is that these carnivals typically work by collecting links that point to blog articles related to the topic of that carnival. It is similar to a magazine that is published on a particular topic like sports, fashion etc. Many of these blog carnivals literally work like the magazines and publications with editions of these carnivals published on regular basis e.g 5th day of every month etc. These editions contain articles that have links to all those, who submit articles to these carnivals. There may be opinions of the editors or comments posted on such articles. From this description SEO may have already found the opportunity to make use of such carnivals for the success of their website.

The blog carnivals are generally started by the organizers, while they are hosted by volunteers. The organizers would schedule, as to who would host them. The bloggers submit their articles for inclusion in the next edition of the carnival. They do so by submitting links to selected posts to a carnival host. This is where the opportunity exists for SEOs. If you have interesting and good quality articles that you may submit to such carnivals, you can have links from such carnivals, ultimately coming back to your website. But, how do you reach out to your customers? This is not difficult, as the carnival cannot be successful without having an audience. The audience to such carnivals may be bloggers, as well as readers, who are interested in finding information related to that carnival subject. These may be the customers, whom you may reach out to.
