Unleashing the Secrets: How to Tell the Age of Your Tumblr Blog
Ah, Tumblr—a haven for *quirky cats, poetic angst*, and the endless scroll of reblogging. But wait! Have you ever wondered just how long you’ve been sharing your world with the *Tumblriverse?* Well, buckle up, friend, because we’re diving into this quest to unveil your blog’s age, and it’s a lot simpler than deciphering a riddle from a Sphinx.
1. Dive into the Page Source
If you’re feeling a bit like a modern detective, here’s a fun tidbit: Tumblr includes a nifty script in the page header that reveals when your blog dared to share its first thoughts with the world. To uncover this hidden treasure, follow these steps:
- Nab the URL of your Tumblr post or blog.
- Right-click on the page and select *View Page Source*. (Don’t worry; it sounds fancier than it is!)
- Now, use Ctrl + F (or Command + F on macOS) to find datePublished.
Voilà! Underneath all that digital fluff, you should see a date that looks like this: “datePublished”:”2017-02-20T00:15:35-05:00″. This glorious string of numbers and letters tells you when that blog was brought into existence. So yes, you can officially know how long you’ve been thriving in this virtual jungle.
2. Explore the Archive
Still not satisfied? You can also *peek* into your blog’s archive. Simply pop /archive on the end of your Tumblr URL, and—ta-da! You’ve unlocked a time machine. You can hover over each post to discover its date from months or possibly even *years* ago. It’s like checking the birth certificate of your blog’s most nostalgic moments!
3. Check Inactivity Rules
Now, a little morale-boosting reality check: if your blog has been inactive for over a year, Tumblr might just give your account a makeover or, you know, delete it. Yeah, they’re ruthless like that. So, if you’ve been slacking on your posts, it’s time to dust off that creative gavel and drop some posts!
4. Quick Tip on Page Info
If you’re using Google Chrome, you could also play the *Page Info* card. Right-click on the page, click on *View Page Info*, and hold your breath. Sometimes, the age of your blog could hover right before your eyes. Talk about excitement!
So there you have it! The treasure map to your blog’s age is in your hands.
