Including Links to Original Posts in your Description
anonymous asked: hey! how do you link to all of your original posts in your description? thanks in advance!
Linking to your original posts is a great way to get your content out there and make people more likely to visit your blog. It’s very simple to do by using the process of linking urls in your description as outlined in this post, and changing the url to link to your original posts instead! There are two basic methods you can use to do this:
Method 1: Linking to a Navigation Page
If you’re so inclined, you can set up a page which has links to your original posts (like this one for printables by emmastudies), and insert that link into your description. This is quite a lot more time consuming than the alternative, but it is far more organized and makes it easier for people to find what they’re looking for.
Method 2: Linking to an Original Post Tag
Many studyblrs have a specific tag they use on all their original content (#mine, #original, and #my post are some common tags), and you can choose to link to that tag on your blog. If your tag is #mine, then use the format “yoururl.tumblr.com/tagged/mine” and it’ll show all of your original content (like this page by obsidianstudy).
If you haven’t already tagged all of your original posts with a specific tag, you can use tumblr’s mass editor to add tags to your posts.
This may be less organized than creating a navigation page, but it’s much less work for you and probably the most common way to link to your original content. It also gives people visiting your blog a great sample of your posts!
Hope this helps!
