Answer:

blog carnival begins with a blogger who hosts the carnival.

The host chooses a topic for the carnival, then reaches out to other bloggers asking them to write an article about the topic.

Participating bloggers publish their article on their own blogs then send the link to the carnival host.

On the date of the blog carnival, the host publishes a Carnival article which includes all the links from the participating bloggers.

Question: What is a Blog Carousel?

Answer:

A Blog Carousel is my version of a Blog Carnival.  Instead of hosting a carnival, and asking bloggers to publish a related article on their site.  I consolidate snippets of previously published articles on similar topics (usually Bodrum Peninsula destinations), and give them another spin on my Carousel.  This way it consolidates related information on the Bodrum Peninsula Travel Guide, but also gives you the opportunity of discovering the full version of the article on the author’s website.

Do you want to join my Carousel?

If you’ve written an article about the Bodrum Peninsula, and would like to include a link to it on one of my carousels, just send me an email with the link.  Content can be an articles or pictures, as long as it’s related to the Bodrum Peninsula.

Do you want to leave my Carousel?

If I’ve included an excerpt of one of your articles in a carousel, and you’d like to get off the ride, just send an email requesting a dismount!
