Get More Fans on Tumblr

By Daisy Molloch


Tumblr is one of the famous social media sites that mixes microblogging and social networking into one. Unlike a normal blog, Tumlbr will only allow a smaller file size or shorter content in posts. Posts can be texts, videos, audios, photographs and links. Tumblr also inspires reaching out to fellow Tumblr users and sharing posts with one another.

Since Tumblr is also a social networking site, it's really important to get more proponents to increase your blog exposure. It can be confusing and disheartening the simple way to start gaining those proponents, but there are a few easy steps that you can follow to get more followers:

1. The first basic step is to post a top notch looking image. Select a photo that will put you in a tasty light and that will best represent who you are. You may also post a logo or symbol that can tell a lot on what type of blog you run. Remember, symbol or personal photo must be clear and eye catching. This will get the attention of any potential supporters.

2. Think about a good blog name that sounds interesting. If you do not want to post your real name, you can make a blog name that best represents who you are. Any potential supporter will look at the blog name and should know much of the time what the blog is about. Some followers are variable, if your name is uninteresting or offending, they won't even take a look at your blog out.

3. Create or post an enticing theme or wallpaper for your blog. Folk are visual creatures so they get most attracted with a cleverly designed blog. Themes should best represent who you are but simultaneously, it should not look too decorative or very designed so as not to be a diversion.

4. Attach tags to your post. Just like the hashtags on Twitter, tagging your post will allow other Tumblr users to see your post. Tagging will give your posts a broader range of exposure because plenty of users check out tagged post on Tumblr often.

5. Reblogging is excellent for exposure. All those people that liked and also reblog a selected post will be displayed, making your account perceivable also to all of them. If you choose to reblog a certain post, the individual that owns that post will be interested and check you out and that person can become your Tumblr proponent.

6. You may visit the site Tumblr Train and have an increased exposure to your blog. Users of Tumblrs who post on Tumblr Train are looking out for their own followers. Posting on it and being a "passenger" on the train will allow other folks to look test your web site and become a potential proponent. Follow a fellow passenger to get a follow back too.

7. Post a link to other social media accounts. It is very helpful if you own other social media like Twitter and Facebook because you can fasten a link to your Tumblr to get a bit more followers from those accounts. Plenty of Tumblr users post on other social media sites and asking for others to follow their account in exchange for a follow back. You can do this for your account too.

Use the follow for follow strategy. This is a standard Tumblr practice to get a bit more supporters. Go to your search bar and type in the statement "follow for follow" and the results will show you plenty of Tumblr users who also would like to increase their number of followers in exchange for a follow back.
