If you are an indie person who doesn't like mainstream social media blogging sites, Tumblr might be your new cup of tea. It was massive from 2007 onwards, but somewhere along the way, it lost a chunk of its fanbase when the likes of other giant social media companies arrived. But Tumblr always had something that the other microblogging sites did not: the vibe.
Tumblr provides the offbeat, indie vibe that other social networks lack. It gives users a platform to share their content with like-minded people who can then comment, like, or share your posts. It offers creators a fascinating yet odd attempt at a microblogging site.
User interface
Starting from the logo, the interface of the app is entertaining, to say the least. The use of different colors, the typography, and the overall interface are designed to give it the artsy look that it stands for.Sign up for your blog on Tumblr
Tumblr is different from other social platforms because it provides you with your own blog URL rather than simply tacking your username at the end of a generic link.
For example, if you create your account using the username "XYZ", then your link would be xyz.tumblr.com, rather than tumblr.com/xyz.
That provides a much more personalized blogging experience that most social media sites do not offer. You can sign up and choose a username that vibes with you. Whenever you share your Tumblr with people through a link, it will make a much better impression.Link your blog
One of the essential features of Tumblr is how well it integrates with external blogging sites. All you have to do is link your external blog with the website, and you can share any Tumblr content on your blog easily.Social media at its heart
However indie Tumblr might get, it is still a social network at heart, and it provides a great platform for users to share their content, integrate it with their blogs, and interact with like-minded people effortlessly.
