Tumblr Etiquette, or How Not To Be A Shitty Blog

Teaching you how to be a better blogger, one post at a time.

nocrumbleftbehind asked: I am new to tumblr, and blogging in general. I just got my first "like" on a post, and I am not sure what the etiquette is in this situation. Do I contact them directly to say thanks, or is that a little too desperately polite? P.S. This is a great blog! Perfect for people like me, who don't really have any idea what they are doing...

Generally people don’t give individual thanks for likes/reblogs unless there’s some huge special meaning to it (a certain number, they’re a person you respect/like, etc.)
