Tumblr for marketing?

[roland03]

I hear a lot about Facebook and Twitter so, my question is this; has anyone used Tumblr in their marketing plan?

I read the statistics about Tumblr recently, while researching social media marketing because I like to stay apprised of statistics in terms of the size of these online communities and what their potential benefits might be.

According to Tumblr; There are currently 102 million Tumblr blogs with
44.6 billion posts having been published on Tumblr.

They apparently attract over 29 million unique visitors. How would you use this Social Network or incorporate it into your marketing plan? I find the idea tempting considering that you can post pictures, posts and video. The possibilities seem endless and yet I am concerned about the age group finding specific Niche's more popular than others.

What are your thoughts?

I like Tumblr as it is a mixture between a blogging platform and social media site which makes creating content that can be shared, commented on and followed easy.

Reasons to use Tumblr:

1. Unlike many social media platforms, Tumblr pages are dofollow so when someone reblogs your content a dofollow backline is created. If you include a link in your post then both your Tumblr and website link will get a backlink. This will inprove your SEO.

2. You can create micro site that send traffic to your main website.

3. If you follow the philospphy of "Market Everywhere" then being on Tumblr is another place you can reach your audience.

This is definitely the reason I use Tumblr. Besides unlike other blogging platforms where lengthier posts are always good, with tumblr you can go with images and a few words here and there. I really love it.

I heard very positive review about Tumblr from my friend. But I never tried it out practically. But I am thinking to add Tumblr in my next marketing campaign.

Honestly I never ever tried tumblr before but I have heard very positive review about it from my friends. One of my buddy use it as a blogging platform and he told me that tumblr is far better than blogger.

Tumblr is more of a Social networking site, it is a mini blogging portal and worth using. It helped me a lot in recent times

Tumblr provides you with options to add text, links, images etc. You also get a link back by adding content on Tumblr.

Do you know why Yahoo valued Tumblr at such a high price point? It’s because Tumblr attracts tons of eyeballs.

With over 300 million unique visitors a month going to Tumblr, you have no choice but to leverage the platform. Not only is its traffic growing at a rate of 74% a year, but over 65% of its users have a college degree and have discretionary income.

There are very few people who actually take remuneration from tumblr as per my point of view. I have to agree with Melisata. It seems that stevenj have more benefits from tumblr marketing and I also want to take same advantages from tumblr. Can you express your thoughts towards tumblr marketing???
