If you’ve come to that point in tumblr where you’re fed up with the amount of followers you have at the moments and you want
then I have some advice for you - at least, it’s what I did when I went through that stage.
1) USE TUMBLRPLUG
Tumblrplug is good, but because of the amount of users on it constantly, it can get hard to get noticed. I’d say keep posting your URL (it falls off the main page in under a minute, usually). Also, don’t follow people unless they follow you first (assuming you follow back), as most people SAY they follow back, and then they don’t, and then you can’t remember their url so you start crying and then you’re out of cookies so you go straight for the ice cream and then you closed the wrong tab and etc etc.
2) REBLOG. A LOT.
If you have an active blog, people will be more tempted to follow your blog. Also, with more followers, people will reblog your things more often, getting your name out there.
3) ASK PEOPLE TO CHECK OUT YOUR BLOG.
If they don’t like it, what’s the worst that can happen? If they like it, then they follow you. Simple.
4) PROMOTE YOURSELF!
Don’t do this on your blog, however. There are blogs dedicated to exclusively blogging promos. Also, one of the most popular tags is ‘follow+back’ (so, using that in a URL, http://tumblr.com/tagged/follow+back ). If you submit a lot of promos, then they will queue your posts so they get posted throughout the day, increasing the amount of followers you have. I myself, run a promo blog. Also, promotions work MUCH better if you have a screenshot of your blog/photo of yourself and a paragraph of what your blog is about.
Use those, and you should be well on your way to getting followers :-)
