Tools For Fools - Tumblr
Choosing a blog platform can be a completely overwhelming and a daunting task. There are so many great platforms out there; it is hard to determine which is the best fit for you, your company and the purpose of your blog. We have found Tumblr to be the winner for Webconnex!
Tumblr seems to make blogging almost too easy! It is the perfect mix between a blog platform and a social media network. When posting to Tumblr, you are prompted to choose if your post will be text, photo, quote, link, chat, audio or video. This allows a blogger to not feel confined to producing lines and lines of blog content simply because that’s what you are 'supposed to do'.
Rather, you can quickly upload a picture or a video to keep your audience up to date (like social media) on the happenings of you or your company, just as you would on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram. Instead of having to access each of your social networks to keep each of your audiences in the loop, Tumblr saves you oodles of time by integrating with social networks, such as Facebook and Twitter.
Tumblr also allows users to share the blog content of other users; which allows your blog to potentially reach many more people than it would on any average blog platform. If you are creating blog content that the users of Tumblr like, then they can become advocates for your blog! Pretty sweet, right?!
