If you were never an avid Tumblr user yourself, you might not be super familiar with the site and how it works. But it’s still thriving today, despite the fact that the platform hit its peak about a decade ago. According to Demand Sage, there are currently about 519 million blogs on Tumblr from all over the world. And every single day, 12.8 million posts are published for Tumblr users to enjoy.

When it comes to who frequents the social media platform, Tumblr reports that their users are an equal split between men and women, the majority being Gen Z and Millennials. And as far as why people hop onto the site, 60% say that they visit to find entertainment, while 12% use the platform to connect with loved ones.

If you’re wondering what the appeal of Tumblr is, compared to other social media sites, we’ll let the platform speak for itself. In fact, according to Tumblr, it’s not a social network, but rather a “mycelial network.”

“Tumblr is whatever you want it to be,” the website states. “Oh, and influencers? Don't even go here. This is your space. Every video you find, every quote you reblog, every tag you curate, every waterfall GIF you secretly gaze at in wonder—that's all you. You're the explorer. We're just a map you all keep on making. Welcome home. Welcome to weird. Make it yours.”

Because the formatting of Tumblr is different from Instagram, Facebook and other social media sites, the focus is more about the content, rather than followers and likes. In fact, you can’t even see how many followers other Tumblr users have. The website is also more customizable than most similar platforms, so users can have a unique experience rather than one dictated by a bunch of corporate suits in a multi-million dollar office somewhere.   

And if you’re not interested in using Tumblr simply to stay entertained or get some giggles into your day, you might be able to use it to practice some of your skills. Rowena Wiseman at Novlr recommends that writers use Tumblr to share snippets of their work or share details about their writing process. It can help fans stay connected if they hear more about the background of their favorite books, and they’ll be thrilled when they know that something new is coming before its actual release.

Writers can also provide advice and writing tips to followers through their Tumblr blogs. And if they want to promote their own books and stories, they can create eye-catching graphics with quotes from their writing that followers can spread around the site. Authors might even want to make mood boards for characters in their books to help readers understand them better, or uplift other writers who haven’t gained a substantial following yet.

So let your imagination run wild, and get creative!
