Hello, this is me first method i share here. This tumblr method require some starting money,the amount will depend where you get accounts/proxies/bot. Since i have lots of tumblr accounts and already bot, me only expense are proxies. The method is quiet simple and after setup its almost on autopilot with minimum work. I'm testing this method more than 20 days now, in first day i made over $1 and so far i have earned $180+. Me setup 75 tumblr blogs(3 groups of 25 blogs working in different times during day), 25 private proxies (3 blogs per proxy), tumblr bot (tumblingjazz, detailed guide if you using this tool) Why tumblr? Easy to manage, cheap to create accounts, queue and recently was big update on link posts so now all devices have post thumbnail which is necessary because i post only links. Also most of the traffic is mobile. For monetization i use Skylikes. Why? Lots of content to promote as you will see later its needed and weekly payments. Concept: Create unique list of blogs to follow Prepare and customize blogs Get links and post (queue) link posts Follow and Unfollow blogs Since monetization is with Skylikes it will be in humor niche and creating unique list of blogs to follow will be easy. For this step you need tool that will scrape users who liked /rebloged tumblr post. So first you need to find some popular and recent post with many notes. Go to tumblr search or use explore button to find trending posts. It depends on you tool how it will scrape the users but to make sure the list will be unique you need to save all the results in one file because there will be duplicates. To remove duplicates copy all data from file to excel DATA>REMOVE DUPLICATES. For one blog is needed at last 6000 people so i scraped at last 450k users. Customization is on you, i use default theme just change colors. For names i use name generator, avatars are random girls selfies. I have left description empty since most users use tumblr app they are unable to click links in description or custom pages so im not wasting time with it. As mentioned before i will post lots of content so prepare queue to post 48-50x per day. To get links from Skylikes hit generate links and your unique link will be generated however it will contain description text. So first copy the links+description to excel clipboard when you will have enough data (at last 100 posts) collected copy them all and extract only links with URL extractor . If you want short links do it but is not mandatory. When you will have all links prepared just queue them to your accounts, you can queue up to 300 post on tumblr. So if you will queue 300 post and post 48-50x per day it will last for 6 days so you got lots of time to prepare more. Now when you will have blogs customized and content prepared its time to follow. On tumblr you can follow 200 blogs per day and follow max 5000 blogs. The follow back ration will not be high since you will mostly spam but many people that you will follow will check your account and some of them will click on the links and since Skylikes pays for click you will be making money. Of course the content you promote is fine so some will be glad that clicked on the link and can spend lots of time on the site. After 7 days i have started to unfollow people again you can unfollow 200 blogs. Also if some of your followers reblog the link it can get some extra clicks from they followers and so on. If you have good tool you can set this on autopilot. Some twists: To get maximum exposure use different tags on each account, you will get some traffic from search and since its 75 accounts the number of traffic/followers in total can be interesting. Also like others posts can increase followers/visitors. Mass like own posts to get in to search, tumblr search on default show top results and if you like one post on each account with all other accounts you will get 75 notes. Its not much but in some tags it can bring you in top not the first one but at last something. For monetization probably adsense blog. Scale up, more accounts per proxy, more proxies and maybe decrease number of post per day (sometimes less is more). Stats so far: 22 days 28986 clicks $182.10 revenue
Very interesting spin on a classic method. Thanks for the guide. I might give this some time if i have any.
Hey OP I saw your other thread with the NSFW blogs and just letting you know that Tumblr is by far the shittiest social media network out there when it comes to conversions , try some others you'll make more money
I have some questions... 1. How many unique visits do you get per blog in a single day ? 2. You've got any of your blogs banned ? 3. If so, how much time your accounts remain alive, days ? weeks ? months ? 4. 75 accounts, 25 proxies... 3 accounts per each proxy right ? seems obvious... 5. Do you think queueing posts with the build-in tumblr feature is safer than scheduling a poster ? lets say every 30 min (48 posts in 24h)... 6. Tumblr limits let you do 250posts per day. Divided in 150 photo upload posts + 100 reblogs... Have you tried with more than 48 posts per day ?
Well thanks for you opinion, i have used fb in the past 3 years and still have some pages 200k+ but making hardly any money now but made some $$$$$, also im expanding on twitter soon, want to try same methods there, and slowly growing IG accounts for future use. You know 400 proxies it will be waste use them only for one project. 1, (28986/22)/75=17+- average clicks per day per blog 2. Day 23 and all are fine so far 3, well i think at last moth, maybe if i use reblog method they should stay much longer 4, yeah 3 accounts per proxy, each group (25 accounts) work in different times per day not all at one (only posting from queue) 5, as told in 4, they work in different times so they have some rest time between follow/unfollow and and queue (every 6th day) 6, nope only queue no need extra spam + as mentioned they work not all the time
Small update: I have finished this testing with nice results 37 days with earnings $377.86 and 59503 clicks. Only 3 accounts were banned so far from 75 i will leave these accounts sleeping and going to scale up to 300 accounts. You can follow me first journey to $1000.
For the journey shared proxies cost me $35 for 100, on this first testing i had private proxies for $25 but only 25 proxies. i dont thinks so, you need many accounts to run at once so from one IP it will be big risk. I using in journey shared proxies 100x just for $35 and they works fine.
Just taking a second to thank you again for the well organized information you've been presenting here and on your blog. Thinking you are breathing life back into some of my campaigns with some of these implementations. Different twists of course, but this stuff gets the wheels turning.
