Sharing content on Tumblr is a core aspect of the platform's social functionality. Here's how you can share content on Tumblr:
Reblogging:
- Reblogging is the primary way to share content on Tumblr. When you find a post you want to share, hover your cursor over the post, and you'll see several icons appear at the bottom. Click on the circular arrow icon (the reblog button) to reblog the post to your own blog.
- You can add your own comments, tags, or edits to the post before reblogging it. Once you're satisfied, click the "Reblog" button to share the post on your blog.
- Reblogged posts will appear on your blog with a note indicating that you've reblogged them from another user. The original poster will also receive a notification that you've reblogged their post.
Creating Original Posts:
- You can also share content on Tumblr by creating original posts. Click on the pencil icon at the top right corner of your dashboard to open the post editor.
- Choose the type of post you want to create (text, photo, quote, link, chat, audio, or video) and add your content.
- Once you're done composing your post, click the "Post" button to share it on your blog. Your original posts will appear on your blog timeline for your followers to see.
Sharing External Content:
- In addition to reblogging and creating original posts, you can also share external content on Tumblr by using the "Link" post type. Simply paste the URL of the content you want to share into the post editor, and Tumblr will automatically generate a preview of the link.
- You can add your own commentary or tags to the link post before publishing it on your blog.
Using the "Queue" Feature:
- If you want to share content at a specific time in the future, you can use Tumblr's "Queue" feature. When creating or reblogging a post, instead of clicking the "Post" button, click on the arrow next to it and select "Add to queue."
- This will add the post to your queue, and Tumblr will automatically publish it at the scheduled time.
Sharing on Mobile:
- If you're using the Tumblr mobile app, the process of sharing content is similar. Simply tap on the post you want to reblog or create a new post by tapping on the pencil icon at the bottom center of the screen.
That's it! Those are the main ways to share content on Tumblr. Whether you're reblogging, creating original posts, or sharing external content, Tumblr provides various options for you to express yourself and engage with the community.
