Hello, I have a website on fitness/nutrition/weight training/exercise. I have 9 articles up so far, and plan to write around 1 post per day. I have a bunch of blog carnivals and other blogs in my niche bookmarked, but I do not know when the right time to advertise my blog is.

If I do it too soon, people may think that my blog has very little content and leave.

But if I wait too long, I can be missing out on possible traffic.

Should I start submitting to blog carnivals and letting people know about my website?

Just do it, I'm sure you will get good content from other writers and good idea's for your future posts.
Meanwhile keep writing your posts everyday, or more and publish them later. Keep flow in your site.

Carnivals should be fun, though?

Just mention that you started your blog recently - if people like you're writing they'll come back for more.

I submitted to some blog carnivals and commented on a lot of other blogs.. I got my first 3 clicks! My earnings did not come out to much, but I am still very excited.

Congratulations on doing it!

Blog carnivals love new posts.

This reminds me...blog carnivals is something I should be doing - thanks for the reminder. I've had some great results in the past.
