Are Tumblr Blogs Good for SEO in 2017? Let’s Dive In!
Ah, the age-old question: Is Tumblr a treasure trove for SEO? Spoiler alert: it kinda is, but with a twist! Let me spill the tea based on my multi-blog experiences on both Tumblr and WordPress.
Picture this: I manage five fantastic Tumblr blogs while avoiding pesky domain and hosting fees. Every blog oozes profit and has become a colorful canvas for expressing my interests. Most of my income originates from glamorous sponsored posts and cheeky merch sales. The blogs cater to niche communities, which means my merch flies off the virtual shelves! Ever tried Teespring? Talk about conversion rates that leave other platforms eating dust. From the ranks of selling merch, in second place we have Redbubble, followed closely by Amazon Merch as a bit of extra pocket change.
Now let’s talk about the dazzling world of affiliate marketing, which contributes a steady $50-$100 per month to my treasure chest. It’s not the gold mine you’ll find in the last Pirate film, but it’s dependable! This year, I’m definitely diving deeper into affiliate strategies to boost these numbers. Oh, and did I mention I’ve dabbled in crypto? Since 2017, I’ve accumulated a small fortune of nearly $8,000 from my virtual shenanigans—thank you, mining and trading!
You might be wondering about my traffic sources. Honestly, most of it comes organically from Google—not just my kissing cousin Tumblr traffic. But how do I keep that steady flow of visitors? Well, let me enlighten you. First off, I choose specific niches that excite me, making it easier to engage my audience. I connect with likeminded folks and regularly catch their eye with vibrant, sharable content. Tip: Always reblog and engage with others!
When it comes to monetization, I’d say Tumblr isn’t as impossible as others have claimed. I mean, some people think it’s about as likely as getting a free side of fries with every fast-food combo! But, if you skillfully reach out to potential sponsors or join affiliate programs, the possibilities grow. Just make sure to have a decent following (think a few hundred) before you strut your monetization stuff.
Now, let’s address the elephant in the room: “Can I monetize my art curation blog on Tumblr?” Heck yes! Your blog could sparkle like a diamond, attracting traffic that turns into cash. Just get creative!
In conclusion, if you’re curious about how to evolve your Tumblr game or have further questions on how to squeeze the lemon for SEO in 2017 (and beyond!), please don’t hesitate to connect with us! Let’s drop those blogging pennies and pick up $$$ instead!
