Creating Folders on Tumblr: A Fun Guide to Organizing Your Fandoms
Alright, so you want to make folders on Tumblr? Well, buckle up, because Tumblr doesn’t roll out the folders like your school binder! Instead, we use some cool tricks to keep our posts organized in the wild world of fandoms. Here’s the scoop.
First off, let’s clear the air: Tumblr doesn’t actually have the nifty little folders feature that you might dream about. But what it *does* have is tags—and these little guys work like magic to sort your posts! Think of tags as little labels that help people find your content without rummaging through a chaotic mess of posts.
Utilizing Tags Like a Pro
So here’s the deal: Instead of creating endless folders that don’t exist (I know, bummer!), just put everything on one blog and tag away. If you’re into multiple fandoms, create a tag for each of them. For instance:
- #FandomA for all those emotionally devastating series.
- #FandomB for your casual, quirky obsessions.
- #ArtWIP for that art you keep promising but haven’t quite finished.
Just imagine your followers diving into a treasure trove of things they love (or love to cringe at). They’ll find exactly what they’re looking for, or even something else that intrigues them!
Most folks manage just fine with one blog. It’s easier for followers to keep up, and let’s be honest, who has the time to juggle multiple blogs? I mean, side blogs exist, and sure, some people love creating separate niches like sketch blogs, inspiration corners, or even dream journals, but keeping them active? That’s the real challenge. It’s like trying to keep houseplants alive. We wish we could, but life gets in the way!
When to Consider Side Blogs
However, if you’re *really* gung-ho about making a side blog, consider this: create a blog dedicated to a particular fandom that’s generating tons of content (like those hilarious ask blogs that pretend to be your favorite characters). Just make sure you can keep it running! Otherwise, it’s just another graveyard of abandoned ideas.
Now, there’s always the consideration of blocking specific tags if someone you follow is spamming your feed with a new obsession. You want them to share their interests without overflowing your feed like a college roommate with bad takeout. Stay sane and customize your experience!
To wrap this up, while you can’t physically create folders on Tumblr, you can definitely create an organized, engaging space using tags. Tag your hearts out, and enjoy curating a delightful feed for your followers! Remember, everyone may love your quirky art, so don’t be shy! Happy Tumbling!
