Introducing The Business Mums’ Blog Carnival
So what’s it all about?
Each month, a different business mum blogger will be hosting the blog carnival, listing the best business mum blog posts that month. If you’re a business mum with a blog, you can submit your own favourite post of that month to the carnival.
Why? Well, it creates traffic, links and comments for your blog as well as sharing expertise around the business mum community. We’re looking for posts that add value in some way, so maybe they inspire, inform or make us smile. It’s OK to talk a little about what you do (we’re all in business after all) but a post that’s just a sales pitch isn’t going to be much of a read.
And if you fancy being a host, please send an email to helen (at) business plus baby (dot) com.
*Update* I’m allocating hosts to months on a first-come-first-served basis so apologies if you’ve offered to host and I’ve not got back to you yet.
I’m getting a lot of offers from people who want to host and I don’t really want to start allocating hosts beyond the end of 2010 just yet! Feel free to offer to be a host anyway as I’ll keep a reserve list if I get more hosts than there are months left in the year.
How do I join in?
Email a link to your post to the carnival host for that month – see the list below…
Don’t forget to read other people’s posts and comments when the carnival is published. The more comments our blogs get, the more popular our blogs look to new readers!
