Maybe someone shared your post on social media and it got popular Or maybe you are ranking high for a keyword you don't know.

Traffic can't be coming from google because the blog hasn't even been indexed yet. Adsense can be ruled out because it is not being used. Likes on the posts are appearing before reblogs.Without doing anything it is not possible to get sudden traffic.
- Social networking shares
- Blog commenting
- Adsense
might be the main reason for high traffic.
It's happening for a lot of sites/blogs from starting off last December.
Google Might updated some algorithms. Wait & See
Do you have any that you would recommend - similarweb isn't working as the blog isnt a part of the database apparently.Maybe someone shared your post on social media and it got popular Or maybe you are ranking high for a keyword you don't know.

Sadly this is not possible. One thing that would help is knowledge of how tumblr recommends and ranks content.Do you have any other site hosted somewhere else?
If you do, upload a GIF image to that site and add it to your popular posts on Tumblr as a tiny invisible image.
Then go back to your site where you host the GIF and search the access logs for IPs and user agents and so on....will give you a hint about it being real traffic or not.
Can't check referers with that cuz it'll show your current page IIRC.

For an account created a few days ago which had less than 10 followers at the time it was "high traffic"
That is what i was thinking - i guess the acid test will be whether i get engangement on affiliate links when i eventually put them out there.great chance to be bot traffic
