HEY … Just how much do you pay for your Tumblr account?
I don’t pay anything for my 8 blogs.
So, how does Tumblr make its money to survive?
Well, there is the obvious “click bait”. They get a percentage for every ad you click on, but that CANNOT be enough to sustain this kind of infrastructure.
They HAVE to, like every other social media network, sell all of the information that they can gather about you to ANYONE else that will pay for it.
We ARE NOT Tumblr’s “customers”. We are the “product” that they sell.
THEY are not providing us with a service. WE are providing them with a product.
Deny them the product, and they don’t have a business.
