Top 10 ONLINE Poetry markets

What do you think are the top 5 online poetry markets that you would love to see your work accepted at. I think there are hundreds of online magazines that come and go but which ones have you set your aim on getting published in or have already been published in and reached your goal.

As important as print publications are, online publications offer a great way to get attention to your poetry. So I just wanted to build a list for all of us to help get the word out about some of the top online poetry places.

These should be places that are not print publications, only online and accept submissions now. Does not matter if they are pay or not -

Top 10 list (in no particular order):
1. Every Day Poets - http://everydaypoets.com
2. The Orange Room - http://www.freewebs.com/theorangeroomreview
3. 2river - http://www.2river.org
4. GUD - http://www.gudmagazine.com/
5. Apple Valley Review - http://www.applevalleyreview.com/
6. Lone Star Stories - http://literary.erictmarin.com/
7. Strange Horizons - http://www.strangehorizons.com/
8. Goblin Fruit - http://www.goblinfruit.net/
9. Abyss & Apex - http://www.abyssandapex.com/
10. Boston Literary Magazine - http://www.bostonliterarymagazine.com/




(i will update as people add them)

Hey I added Lone Star to the list, figure we could fill it out and they try to debate which ones belong and if there are any we missed. From what i could tell GUD is a pdf magazine - electronic publishing to me that is the same as online meaning, it is not print unless the reader prints it off. It is sold in electronic format so i think that still qualifies

Add Strange Horizon to the list. You would think that coming up 10 online venues considered to be the best poetry places out there would not be too hard -

Does anyone else make normal stops on the web to certain locations to read new poetry?

you know dclary, i don't disagree with you that having an academic press or publication behind you is the easiest route to make a name for yourself but i think if you were able to get a poem in the new yorker or a very high profile journal on a normal basis you would find similiar success.

with that being said who knows who will be remembered and who wont be in the long run. If you get enough of your work out there and get enough books published you can make a dent in poetry

Thanks Polenth! I will update now, makes me think i need to break out categories for speculative poetry and literary poetry to be accurate since some of these are genre specific.

Updated the list with boston literary Amy - Now we have a starting point at the very least. I wanted a list for both readers of poetry and poets so that we have goals. A place we all should work to get our poems in. And as readers a nice stop now and again to read some good poetry.

If anyone has suggestions not on the list please mention them!
