Tumblr and also Pinterest, while comparable in objective, are really different in execution. They have a tendency to serve 2 distinct audiences, as well as with Pinterest swiftly growing to take on Tumblr's serious fan-base, competition between both is heated up. If you're creating a Social Media marketing prepare for your company, team, or business, it is essential to comprehend the resemblances and also distinctions between these 2 sharing websites to make sure that you can choose which will work best for you.

Tumblr is thought about a micro-blogging system as well as is rather comparable to Twitter in that material filters down via one main, easy feed in blocks of pictures and also message. I like to take into consideration Tumblr articles as small blog posts that count greatly on photos and also video clip to catch the eye. You're trying to find re-blogs as well as suches as on Tumblr to include messages to your individual collection on your profile, and as a method to locate others with similar rate of interests. On Tumblr you can quickly consider who else as liked and re-blogged a certain message, after that follow them if their individual page looks intriguing to you. You can additionally find topics by doing keyword searches, so the identifying system is extremely important.

Pinterest is created as an aesthetic pin-board for pictures that individuals intend to keep in their personal collection. Rather than beefy mini-blogs, you re-pin what you see around the net and also on various other pin-boards, including them to your individual, classified collections. Making pins easy to find in searches counts on supplying appropriate details in the recap prior to pinning, and also on making use of key words that will certainly come up in Pinterest searches. Images that you've pinned appear both on your profile in heaps, and in your primary feed amidst a sea of pins from individuals that you follow.

Tumblr and Pinterest are platforms that speak to different marketing needs. A good analogy is that Pinterest boards provide a gallery/museum experience, whereas a Tumblr area serves as a “storybook.”

Social media bandwidth permitting, it’s best to have a presence on both, for example, by using Pinterest to provide updates and “sneak peaks” of new products, and using Tumblr for direct storytelling and brand building. The result can be a deep campaign that creates multiple levels of engagement and performance.

Both platforms have a lot to offer. The choice as to where to engage should be based on your own brand identity, your audience, your internal (or agency) resources, and the strategic goals that you have for your brand and the specific product and campaign you have in mind. On the other hand, your decision may be very easy to make, if it happens that one of more of your direct competitors have a presence on Tumblr or Pinterest. In this case, carefully study the tactics they are employing and draw from them a set of best practices you can put to work on your own behalf.
