I have been working on just growing one really good quality porn blog on tumblr for about the past two months and it's starting to turn on nice. I'm not as excited for the money as much as the growth I can see in the blog. I have made a bout thirty dollars over all from this one blog though which i think is pretty good. I can see the earnings rise everyday as well.

I love watching my followers grow everyday. Thanks to Lordsnef's queue bot and and iPinner's tumblRipper, I have been able to just keep my queue loaded with quality pictures and that's all I do. I may pin like 8 pictures a day, but even without it I can still see a grow of at least 60 followers a day. I get messages and stuff a lot too.

The only thing I am afraid of is ban. I know I have heard of it happening to people, but does it happen like really often?

Offtopic: how is it possible to make money out of tumblr if you are willing to share with us?

from what I've picked up by reading here, you won't get banned unless you're botting heavily.

By putting ads on your blog from adult advertisers like plugrush or juicyads.

Good luck. I have been using this method for more then a year and made $x.xxx from it in total. All my blogs (29 with total 120k followers) have been banned over the last 3 weeks, and it seems to be much harder now to keep new accounts running on bots then a couple of months ago. The main reason given for banning my blogs was ads and affiliate links.

Awsome i never thought we can make money from Tumblr

That scares me. I hope my doesn't get banned. I try not to bot what so ever but only to queue pictures.

Does this still work?

It's been working well for me. I want just one blog to me my main money maker, not like 30 porn blogs haha

Nice, but you are at the mercy of tumblr. I wouldn't call $30 a success, just yet. It's certainly a start.

I started my adult tumblr blog also about 10 days ago and I'm heading for $15 a month as earnings from plugrush are between 50 and 74 cents a day so far. I'm definitely gonna scale it up. Just started pinning pictures a few hours ago.

I have a bunch of adult sites, so I started 2 tumblr blogs recently (1 for each niche that I do) and I think I notice the potential here.

I did not think of making money from them at first. To me it was more an opportunity to drive traffic to my main sites, but it sounds like this Plugrush & Tumblr method is really hot right now... so once I get a little more used to things, I'll probably try and integrate plugrush as well.

(yeah I know it might seem strange that I run adult sites and never used plugrush... but I sell traffic to FPCtraffic which pays $3 per 1k traffic and outside of that, I just try to get signups)

Has any of you guys looked at automating the quee with iftt.com , am thinking of like buillding a few tools to automate like a whole complete operation, using youtube , bit.ly , and tumblr.

Tumblr is banning like crazy at the moment, in the last month or so ive not been able to make any of my tumblr blogs avoid the ban. Only manual posting can avoid their detection it seems and the return on your time with manual posting makes it unattractive as an income stream. Just my opinion !

Adult blogs have really been popping up all over tumblr and thats why. I manually reblogged a lot of my stuff but i dont think the queue bot is really detectable since its pertty much a macro. And I just looked at iftt and it looks interesting.

I think if you manage your adult blogs 'naturally' there is nothing to worry about. Its once you get involved in auto tools, spamming posts, and anything that MIGHT look fishy, then you run a risk. Since I'm not savvy enough to do these things with confidence, I don't do them. I just run my blog the way a tumblr blog is intended, and haven't been banned yet... That said, it's not exactly a money making machine either and it probably couldn't be one unless I tried some of the things OP talks about

Nice job. Good luck on your journey thoguh. Tumblr is very ban happy noways. Way back when this method first went viral I was on Thebotnet and I followed the guide. I had nearly 10,000 followers. Now I can't keep a blog up for logner then 2 weeks.

I would suggest the most obvious solution. Just get your own site(hosting+domain) and use tumblr as a source of traffic. As some people said, Tumblr is mainly banning people for using ads and affiliate links, so just add 1/3 from the images to your tumblr blog and have the rest of the images on your site.
It involves more work, but in the long run it's definitely the better choice. Not to mention that if you manage to build a decent site, you can easily flip it afterwards or sell ad space(or anything else you can think of) on it

I've been using also tumblr
and its also working fine
i have about 10 followers a day

My first of my two adult niche tumblr accounts just got suspended... I sent an email to the support... Let's see what they say about it...

Been running 50+ Tumblr Blogs in the Adult Niche for almost a year now, with moderate monetary success with juicyA - and I can tell you a couple of my stories I guess regarding their banning and some statistics. For one, I initially started them from ideas I had running around in my head from threads here.

I read the line, " Stop reading, just go out and do it. " Quite a few times - so I jumped in the deep end with Tumblr and PPC. All 50+ Blogs I started by hand, only using some free image scrapers from here and other sources to make a couple-gig base file for uploaded content and shared proxies to create and upload the content via a stand alone tumblr uploader ( It's outdated and old - but searching big g for " Upload, tumblr, desktop program " - you'll find it. ) All together spread out, these days I'm at around 40,000+ followers. My original blog being the most successful - holding a 1/3 of all the followers. Money wise, raked in around 200$ for all the work and I did a lot of work - while I was working an offline job. But it was really my first go at IM so, I was just putting in the work you know?

As for what I've heard here and from a few people I link pooled with on there that have been around awhile, is the problem with the affiliate links. Especially attaching re-directs, tiny-urls and direct affiliate links to images themselves.

Gotta look at it from tumblr's perspective. If their going to attack a growing problem ( 1000's of Adult automated blogs ), their going to design a game-plan to scrape out blatant affiliate links and the like. Easy progress for the effort on their part.

As for a safer setup, I stick with all links pointing right back to the money blog, image link, source, non-obtrusive follow me below the image link, all coming back home. And they typically come, to follow and to browse.

From everything I can gather there's two kinds of people participating in tumblr porn community ( other then the blog owners themselves ) - the kid that follows you just because he likes a little porn on his dashboard and then the other kids that crawl all your content. The ones that do crawl seriously - make up the bulk of the community. And their the ones coming to your main page and racking up a 9-12min lurking party. What I'm trying to say is they're the ones clicking on the PPC adds. So keep the layout sleek, white, not to complex or dark. Medium size banner on top, 250x250 on the right under description - maybe a small one down below - Don't overkill it.

As for PPC adds, JA works just fine. Stick with teen/hardcore/alt related filler adds. After you have it running awhile and gather up 2-3k followers, Juicy PPC filler's can rake you 1$-2$ a day, np. They're not bad adds at all for the target audience as from what I can tell the same guys flooding the Cellphone-tube-porn add market run heavily with JA.

The audience is also obviously young, 14-24 typically.

Mainly trying to say if you want to spread this out and stay under the radar ( this is just IMO, I'm sure there's other options.) Stay away from anything but a few banners, maybe possibly have outbound links from the main to your idea of converting the traffic to $. ATM I'm not going full speed with the whole setup I have on there, as I have bigger plans for tumblr in the near future I hope.

But that $200 I raked out went right to PP account and funded my next venture and a few domains - So it's worth its weight in the getting your feet wet department.

Hope that might help someone.

nice 1 bro, im going to start tumbler soon, im just getting my facebook pages an twitters right high first

Hey thanks for your insights.
But i gotta ask bro. After 1 year with 50 blogs you've only made $200 from Tumblr??

Seems VERY low. I say this just because I have personally made close to $1700 with less than 20 blogs running at any given time and after losing close to 30 blogs do to the ban hammer.

Your methods sound very similar to mine as well.

Anyways, I totally agree with the majority of what you have shared.

Thanks again

I'm also wanting to get something like this set up. I have a ton of good quality porn from amateur websites and blogs. My question is can I use those on my website? I know the copyright deal but the type of pictures these people take of themselves and post it on amateur sites.

PM and I'll show you the types of sites where these pictures are

and can they be used?
