The 232nd edition of the longest running internet blog carnival, the well known Carnival of the Vanities continues at Kehaar's Silflay Hraka.
The carnival, and indeed the entire blog carnival idea, was born over four years ago at Bigwig's Silflay Hraka blog. It is now back home to Silflay Hraka, as Bigwig's brother Kehaar has assumed the reins with great results.
Carnival of the Vanities is the original collection of blog postings, assembling some of the best and wide ranging bloggers on the internet.
This week's Carnival of the Vanities entries include politics, literature, religion, humour, and business.
I have an entry in this week's Carnival of the Vanities as well.
My post is titled "Blog carnivals: How to become a carnival pariah" where I discuss satirically how you can become a carnival persona non grata. Blog carnivals are a great way to get the word out to the blogging community about your blog. Carnival visitors click the link through to your entered post and very often stick around to read more of your postings. At the same time, you are contributing to the success of the chosen carnival.
Then my satire begins.
Thanks to Kehaar for choosing this post as the feature post of the week.
The host says the preferred participation option is to simply enter at Blog Carnival.
As I suggest elsewhere, hosting and contributing to the various internet blog carnivals is a great promotional idea for your blog.
When you send an entry to Carnival of the Vanities, or any of the many internet blog Carnivals, don't forget to link to the hosted edition. It's not only common courtesy, but helps to increase visitor traffic for all entrants. It also shows your appreciation of the hard work done by the host in preparing the post. Everyone shares in the benefits of the expanded Carnival readership.
Show the Carnival some linky love.
Next week's edition of Carnival of the Vanities appears once again at Kehaar's Silflay Hraka.
In the meantime, head on over to the Silflay Hraka hosting of Carnival of the Vanities and enjoy the posts on offer.
You will almost certainly be introduced to some great new and interesting blogs.
