Parenting communities are becoming increasingly common on the web as mothers and fathers turn to social networks to share stories and elicit advice about raising children. Circle of Moms, a social network for yes, moms, is celebrating its year anniversary with steady growth numbers and a few new features. The site is what you'd expect from its name— a community that lets moms connect with friends, talk about their kids, and join topical Q&A communities, with subjects ranging from recipe swapping, special needs children, and discipline for toddlers. Since the site's launch last October, Circle of Moms has accumulated 7 million registered moms and is adding 150,000 new moms per week, according to the site's co-founder and CEO Ephraim Luft. And the social network saw 2.1 million unique visitors last month, according to Quantcast.
