Tumblr is lesss talkked about now, but it can still work for certain niches. It's better for brand awareness, community building, and niche traffic than relying on it purely for backlinks. Success depends on the audience and content strategy.
 
Yes, Tumblr does have the ability to bring niche traffic and even SEO value through quality content.

compared to other social media site likeley not
 
Tumblr is not dead, but I would use it as a small extra channel, not my main marketing strategy.
 
I still use Tumblr occasionally for backlinks and brand visibility, though I wouldn't rely on it for significant traffic.
 
I still use Tumblr as a secondary traffic source. The backlinks alone aren't enough to boost rankings, but consistent posting and community engagement can generate targeted traffic and occasional conversions.

How good is Tumblr traffic now? are you doing ecom or any other?
 
Although I wouldn't depend on Tumblr for substantial traffic, I still utilize it periodically for backlinks and brand visibility.
 
Tumblr can still drive traffic. If you know how to create quality content and share positive, valuable posts, you can attract a decent amount of traffic.
 
I think Tumblr still has some SEO value, but it's not as powerful as it used to be. These days, it's better viewed as a platform that supports your overall SEO strategy rather than your primary source of growth.

Nope it is useless in my opinion.
 
Tumblr isn't a great platform for seo anymore, especially if you're only using it for backlinks. It can still bring some traffic if your niche matches its audience, but I'd treat any backlinks as a bonus rather than the main goal. For most niches, you should invest more time in platforms like reddit, LinkedIn, or facebook.

Tumblr is virtually useless for SEO backlinks because links are nofollow, redirected, but it can still generate decent referral traffic if you target specific niches like art, fandoms, or visual design.
