but what if your followers don't reblog the original content you post? I mean there has to be more, is the theme important?

I heard that another good thing is to have people with a lot of followers following you so that when they reblog the content you post they see who the original poster was (of course give preper credits to the picture etc)

I only have 40 followers, since all I do is generally post random stuff from time to time and mostly talk about or post progress pics of costumes/props/whatever I'm makin.

What would drive you away from a tumblr page other than auto tune? What kind of theme makes you think that it's a quality tumblr, are sidebar pictures important, what shoudl they feature? and general do-s and don't-s ..

Im not too picky about themes I like cutesy ones that have pixels as well as really simple themes with plain backgrounds. Just dont use themes that you can find through the custom section they all look pretty shit but thats just me. I dont care about sidebar pictures it could be your face, some anime character, anything You dont have to have a sidebar picture, its not that if you'd have a crappy sidebar pic i wouldnt follow you. The most important thing to avoid is just the auto tune.

>www.tumblr.com/spiralingaesthetics
do you mind if I review your tumblr.. ?
The theme doesn't go well with the background, the white writing sometimes mixes with other text and it's all a bit confusing, also first thing I've noticed is that there's more text than images, personally this really distracts me, the pictures are all over the place and it looks messy, also be careful with posts that have a lot of images under (the comment area thing) it tends to look awkward on these kind of themes.

uhm.. depends on what kind of stuff you usually post, you could try a 2 column one, I don't pick themes from the theme garden because like >>6794663 said, they tend to look crappy and overdone/amateaur.
when I want to find new themes I usually open the tumblr page of a tumblr I like, check if there's a source for the theme click that and they usually have a more decent selection.

On my old tumblr I got over 3500 in about a half year. But that was a reblog tumblr that I updated every day with mainly original photos I found on the web. It got kinda stressful after a while, because you had to update every day or you would lose like 10 followers for each day you didn't. So I just quit it.

Now I have a more personal one where I post my j-fashion outfits and stuff, and I only update about 2 times a week, with 375 followers.

[Anonymous No.6794822]

I have three tumblrs. One has 70,000 followers, one has 5000 followers, one has 900 followers.

Tips if you want a bunch of followers, in no particular order:

*your blog should be themed in some way. There are a few ways to do themes. My blog with the most followers has a specific niche theme (think posts all about a particular fashion style, fanart from a specific series, a specific genre of movies). It's best to find a theme that people haven't already done fuckyeah/etcs for, or to find a theme where the only blogs for it are inactive or half-active. My blog with the secondmost followers has a general theme (think "everything pastel!" or everything nostalgia or everything literature.) My blog with the least amount of followers is just my personal where I post whatever I feel like, no theme at all.

*keep your posts clean. by this I mean don't post detailed descriptions of the image and keep sources in click-through links (instead of doing, source: blahblah.com in the post) weird tip, I know, but I've noticed that people reblog similar images less when there's a bunch of text under them.

*follow blogs with similar themes or related themes--who knows, they might see you, reblog something, and get you some exposure.

*Have a good ratio of reblogs to original posts. Some people get away almost entirely with reblogs but those people tend to have gotten oodles of followers back in the day when you could pay your way to be promoted on the site OR they started off with mostly original posts but have gone to reblogs due to busy schedule/laziness/whatever. Personally I go for a ratio of 50/50. For every reblog I do, I have an original post. It's better if you can even stagger them that way in the queue... reblog, original post, reblog, original post.

[Anonymous No.6794825]

>>6794817
i just realized what people meant by theme i need to sleep more

[Anonymous No.6794831]

>>6794822
*Be active. This means new posts every day, liking posts, reblogging posts, answering messages, and messaging other people or giving them comments/replies when appropriate. Activitiy is less important when you have a specific theme that has skyrocketed in popularity, but until then: keep active.

*Ask questions! People love answering questions. Ask them what their favorite (something related to the theme of your blog) is, or ask them how they're doing, or whatever. People like to interact.

*Giveaways. Ahh the giveaway is a tricky beast. If you decide to do one, I would recommend not only finding an assortment of fun items (don't need to be expensive, just neat looking) and having a friend take a good shot of them. You can get a lot of interest for ordinary items as long as the picture looks hot. You can technically gain quite a few followers by doing giveaways which have following and reblogging as a mode of entry, since a) they have to follow you to win and b) reblogging means exposure. However, this is actually against Tumblr's TOS (in fact I would say 99% of the giveaways on Tumblr are breaking their TOS) and if someone decides to report you, you may need to end the giveaway.

*Theme. The theme you choose will depend on what you're posting. Is it all images with no text? Then go for a grid theme. Is it images with necessary information, music posts, video posts, and text posts? Go for the regular standard scroll-down blog theme. From here it's just basic web design. If you have a background, make sure it's easy on the eyes. It can match your theme (ex: Sailor moon background for a Sailor Moon blog) but keep it as simple as possible. Honestly, your followers will probably view your blog from the dashboard. IMO the theme is just to keep it easy for people who read that aren't on Tumblr.

Uhh I'm sure there's more tips but I have to go eat now. Mmm chili.

[Anonymous No.6794836]

>>6794822
I tried to keep a separated Jfashion tumblr but I ended up forgetting about it as I also had to keep posting outfits on my regular tumblr.
Now I have 2 tumblers for japanese things (clothes, cosplay and the stuff) 1 for nsfw stuff , 1 for stupid stuff (fandom stuff or funny posts),1 for mild-nsfw stuff (ecchi) and 1 for creepy stuff (horror gifs etc).
I wish I could have less tumblrs but I just hate the feel of having completely random stuff on your blog, it's messy.
How do you people with only 1 blog manage ? I'd go crazy, and I just can't imagine merging a couple of tumblrs together, I don't know what could go well with what.

[Anonymous No.6794847]

>>6794836
>How do you people with only 1 blog manage?

It's my personal tumblr. I post my progress, pictures I've taken (pets, scenery, anything neat I see during the day), any gifs I've made, and reblogged stuff. However, I keep it down to no more than 3 posts a day (unless they're OC, then I'll do separate posts for each category to make it easier on anyone who wants to search tags). I think that helps a lot. No one wants to follow the person who reblogs 50 stupid things a day.

[Anonymous No.6794900]

>>6794847
I find the queue function to be really useful for that.

My blog just consists of reblogging neat stuff I see on my dashboard, so I use to queue as not to spam people. Or to spam them more consistently over a period of time?

On the topic of followers, I have like 35 right now. Like I said, just a personal blog, I post some outfits, maybe drawings, reblog animu, clothes and stupid funny tumblr shit. Though I did shoot up from 13 followers to 30 in a week when I did the 30 day anime challenge thing.

For some reason I get the weirdest blogs following me. I've been followed by a vocaloid hentai blog and a Tu-love-ru hentai blog despite the fact that I post neither those fandoms nor hentai. I don't get it.

[Anonymous No.6794917]

Example of a bad theme: silencedrowns.tumblr.com

Some of her cosplay is very popular but her theme is literally a joke, so between that and the small fandoms she doesn't have nearly as many followers as I guessed (like 1500 or 1600).

Of course I don't think many people would ever have a theme that catastrophic.

[Anonymous No.6794927]

I've got 225 followers, i've had this blog since like 2011 and i have always hovered around 200. I only started posting properly again recently, I've been making gifs from rpgmaker games and have gained like 30 followers in the past week or two which is a lot for me, idk. I post my art there sometimes but it's shitty and no-one likes it so I should probably stop. I also dont really have a theme, I just post rpgmaker game stuff, art I like, and weird pictures or stuff i find interesting or inspiring. I used to post mostly kpop but I've kind of fallen out of love with it. I'd like to get more followers but i am too lazy to do anything specifically to achieve that so no.

But since we're on the topic of tumblr, Im looking for more art/comic/weird photo blogs to follow so if anyone has one then send me a link.

[Anonymous No.6795015]

I've had mine for several years and it's forever been sub-200, but it's a personal blog and I have nothing much to offer.

I'm amazed I have any followers at all because my tumblr is a totally random mishmosh of fandom shit, radical left wing political cartoons/macros, J-fashion, and me whining about how much my life sucks (when depressed) or raving about how I have this plan that will fix everything (when manic). I somehow managed to accrue 32 followers anyway.

45 followers on my lolita blog, 393 on my art/edgy art by other people/personal blog and 354 on my creepycute/shitty ainmu art one.

It sort of pisses me off since the arty one has been going for four years or something, nobody follows it but my own photos and work are frequently stolen and made tumlbrfamous by others. My erokawaii tumblr is 99% just me queuing other people's posts and it's gotten almost as many followers in just a year.
Nobody cares for original content.

Also, I hate people that mash up their tumblr 'genres' too much.
If you want to be a bit-of-everything blog that's fine. You want to post only cooking and fandoms? Okay fine.
But to be only one type of blog and then suddenly through in porn solidly for half a week every month kills me, as does every other post being SJW shit.

Ruins good blogs for me, but I can't tell people how to enjoy themselves online to suit my opinons.

Jesus on a pogostick. This is exactly how I feel right now. I follow a couple of Sailor Moon blogs that have suddenly all started posting shit from other anime series and a few equine blogs that have suddenly started posting random "artistic nudes" and humping gifs.

If I wanted a multi-fandom blog or nude art blog, I can. And often do. But if I'm reading something that started as purely Sailor Moon/one fandom/equine/whatever, don't suddenly start posting like it's your personal tumblr instead. Especially if you have shitty taste outside of what I originally followed you for! I will unfollow you.

Um, around 340? It's a personal blog centered around things I buy, being a fashion major, lolita, ect. I wanted to do outfit posts, but I'm no beauty and I'm really selfconcious. At this point it's mostly things I buy. I don't reblog... which kinda goes against Tumblr's purpose, I guess. Most photos are taken by me.

your theme makes it really hard to tell who is saying what or what image is from where... it's all just black text with no paragraph indentations that show up on most themes

Also, tags don't show up--makes it annoying if people are trying to find certain photos (like photos of you, or photos of your collage coords)

you're using the most generic and basic layout there is, content wise it's ok but seriously change your layout, it makes it look like it's your first day on tumblr and it puts off a lot of people.

it's nice as it is, tho I would suggest to change the colour of the background to a more subtle color (it's a bit bright at the moment) and the posts are too big, change them to a smaller size.

omg I had to unfollow fuckyeadisneyfanart too for similar reasons, but mainly because she started having stupid off topic anon wars on her blog. it got soo ridiculous and out of hand. I actually didn't care dealing with the whole "hurr this is my blog I do what I want with it" bs, but once she started posting like crazy opinions that got anon asks clogging up my dash I had to quit. that girl is just not good at running that blog some one else needs to do it or remake a better one seriously.

The reverse happened to me, but not on that scale I only have around 80 followers. A few weeks ago I was consistently posting/reblogging around 15-30 posts a day but I wasn't getting any new followers. Then I stopped using tumblr for a week and I got a lot of new followers. I noticed this happening before. It's like this short pause attracts new people. I don't get it.

Not the person who said they'll rate it etc but here's my 2 cents - change your layout so that your content is bigger, on my screen everything is only like 150 pixels wide. You have a lot of negative space on the right hand side.

Okay here we go...

After browsing your blog for a while I concluded it's a kind of personal one where you post whatever you like. Mine is that way too and I don't have many followers, but I don't expect to since people usually want to follow blogs with a specific theme related to their interests. For example: I liked your fashion related posts, animals and some drawings but I didn't like all the anime related stuff. If it was very rare or related to the fandom I like, I wouldn't mind it. I'd only reblog anime posts if they included really beautiful scenery. So, for me, it's too random.

This may seem silly, but even if it's a general blog with no specific theme I'd like to see some order, like a few posts only about certain character or fandom, then a few posts about cute food, then about lolita fashion... you get the point.

About lolita fashion posts and fashion posts in general, it would be better if there was more of those who look "professional". I personally dislike posts with bad camera quality, or just a person standing in front of a mirror with their cell phone camera.

And for the layout/tumblr theme: I recommend a theme with a grid rather than one column type you're currently using. That light background is a little boring but at least it's not cluttered or worse - made of gifs.
That dancing thing is a bit cute at first but it gets annoying and it's too big. Really distracting. Maybe you should write something about your blog or yourself.

That's it I guess. I hope I'm not being too subjective.

>>6798974
I feel the same way about seeing people who are friends on tumblr. From what I've seen they are either those that have a specific themed blog and post about the same stuff, or they're friends in real life too... I don't know. But I'd like that too.

I reblog a lot of j-fashion, anime/manga screencaps, art, guro, nature photography. Often the colors tend to be pastel purple, blue and pink, but it also changes over to more somber, dark colors often. NSFW

I also have a side multi-fandom blog. Reblog a lot of Evangelion and Madoka Magica fanart, along with some other series.

[Anonymous No.6810309]

Are there any tips for anyone who wants a popular personal blog? Like, a blog where you reblog things you like but also post your own cosplay/day to day fashion. Is it more difficult to be recognized than having a separate secondary blog?

>like a few posts only about certain character or fandom, then a few posts about cute food, then about lolita fashion... you get the point.
personally I prefer the opposite , I like to see some variety while still being in the "cute" theme and I don't want to make people think that I only post x stuff because there's a bunch of them on the top.

>That dancing thing is a bit cute at first but it gets annoying and it's too big. Really distracting
yeah I know that Nonowa is too big but I don't know what to put otherwise, would it be ok if I used the image here? >>6798974

>Maybe you should write something about your blog or yourself.
I was thinking about that, but idk I don't want to sound too boring and I don't think that people would be interested..

I'll make a few changes now, I'd prefer to keep my current theme as I don't want it to look too cluttered, I don't know if you're still in here tho, if anyone else has something to add (nothing mean spirited please) feel free to say so!

I have about 130 followers.

I've been reblogging a lot of different clothing styles and such I like lately. Apparently my followers must not have the same fashion sense because they keep leaving me.

Otherwise it's anime, Pokemon, Touhou, fish, flowers, kawaii things, and occasionally lolita stuff.

When I first made my blog, all I followed and was followed by were lolita blogs, since I shared it here, hah. I plan on posting more cosplay stuff once I get time to start working on my stuff again.

On the topic of getting ~tumblr famous, I'm resigned to the fact that I'll be lucky to ever break the three hundred follower mark. I'm a writer, which is hard enough on Tumblr, with everyone only caring about kawaii uguu yaoi drawings, or general fandom drawings, and the few fandoms I do contribute to, it's mostly with screenshots taken with my phone, or stupid ms paint edits. Plus, one fandom is extremely small, not even with fifty people in it. I need to learn how to make transparent shit.

>I was thinking about that, but idk I don't want to sound too boring and I don't think that people would be interested..

Well not many people would be interested in reading a lot of text, but it would be okay just to write a sentence or two so that your visitors know what to expect.

I checked your blog again, I like that your posts are bigger now, looks much better.
And I like your description.

I also have a suggestion seeing that your blog has infinite scroll. Maybe you could add a music player but DON'T put it on autoplay. Just thought it would be cute to have an option to play some music while scrolling.

I follow around 2000. I like my dash to be really fast, though I think it has gotten a little bit out of hand. I'll go through and delete a load at some point.

OTOH, following a lot of people (and a post that got a load of notes in a popular fandom) boosted my follower count from 200 to almost 800.

How to gain followers fast: Make a funny theory/text post/picture in the Sherlock, Doctor Who or Supernatural fandoms and get it noticed by someone more popular.
