There are two types of people on Tumblr: teenage emo-hipster artists with an over-inflated view on the importance of fashion in society, and people who are using the platform for marketing, or getting their name out there.

While these two groups of Tumblrphiles are quite different creatures, there is one thing that both have in common. That is, the strong desire to learn how to get more Tumblr followers. For the emo-hipsters this is merely an ego-driven thing, but for marketers it’s definitely more to do with the bottom line — earning more of those tasty, tasty dollars.

Now as we all know that hipsters cannot read, I’m guessing you’re a marketer or webpreneur looking to boost your following to promote your site, blog or product. And the good thing for you is that this information will work very well for you indeed.

But it doesn’t matter who you are, let’s take a look at the best ways to get more Tumblr followers and how you can do it fast.

1. Buy Tumblr Followers

While some might think of this as the cheats way out, you can actually buy Tumblr followers and there are many reasons that you might consider this. First of all, you won’t have to do any work to attain them, freeing your valuable time to do create an origami statue of King Henry VIII, or whatever else it is you do in your spare time. On top of this, you can get targeted followers based on their interests, so you’re only getting people that would actually want to read your content anyway. But probably most importantly for me is the fact that you’ll get them fast. Where it may take you months (or much longer) to get 1,000 followers on Tumblr, by buying them you could get the same amount in weeks, or even days.

2. Like Stuff

When you see a post you like on Tumblr, make sure that you ‘like’ it immediately. In case you’re a total Tumblr noob, you’ll know that by liking something your blog name will appear in a stream below the post for everyone else to see. From there, you’ll begin to have others click on your name to see what your blog is all about and then hopefully if they like it, follow you in turn. Obviously the more stuff you like the more your Tumblr blog’s name will be seen, so you should do this as often as possible. After all, it’s not exactly hard and can amount to some big follower gains.

3. Reblog Stuff

Just like above, if you see something that’s really of interest and you think it will fit in with your blog quite well (this last point is particularly important), then  be sure to reblog it on your own blog. It takes next to no time and is something else that people will see in the ‘like/comment/reblogged’ stream below the original post. One thing to consider is that although you’ll only be getting the same effective exposure as if you ‘liked’ the post, you’ll find that you will generally get a lot more interested eyes going to your Tumblr blog if you reblog something. Just don’t overdo it.

4. Come Up With A Great Name

We all know the value of a good name. Hell, if it were up to me I would have had my parents name me Maximus McAwesome Legendarius instead of Leon, but that’s another rant. Anyway, the first thing that someone on Tumblr is generally going to see when it comes to your blog and deciding whether to click through to it, is its name. And as we know people are fickle creatures (especially Tumblr-dwellers), the better the name of your blog, the more clicks to it you’ll get, so it pays to come up with something catchy. As an example, “My Art Blog” is a much, much weaker and less-interesting blog title than “Crunchy Art From Space”, which would likely draw a lot more clicks to it. Remember, as you’ll be doing a lot of reblogging and ‘liking’ to get traffic, people are only going to see your name. Make it count.

5. Post Interesting Content

This should be a no-brainer. The more unique, interesting and compelling content you post on Tumblr, the greater the chance of you getting more Tumblr followers. Now, you’d have to be an absolute simpleton with a brainpan full of mushed, rotting straw and worms not to understand this point, but in case you are as described, let me make this easy to understand. If you post great stuff that people love, laugh at or find visually appealing, people will follow you. Even better, if your stuff is really ace, you’ll get reblogged which will result in even more Tumblr traffic and followers. End.

6. Images, Images, Images

We conducted a study on six Tumblr blogs (oooooh…how scientific-like) and found that content with images, or just images alone, were 327% more likely to be liked or reblogged than plain text content. I really don’t know how much more simply I could explain that to you. So, I won’t.

Now then, this is more than enough information for you to start getting more Tumblr followers and you should find your numbers increasing quite quickly if you just put a few of these tips into practice. By far the easiest method is to buy followers on Tumblr, but if you don’t have the cash to outlay, then simply follow tips #2-#6 and you will see results.
