Submit Your Tumblr Blog to Togather: The Complete Guide
Tumblr blog submission guide — subdomain URL, field-by-field help, moderation checks, and how theme descriptions help readers find your niche.
Why list your Tumblr blog on Togather
Tumblr still hosts vibrant fandom, art, and long-form essay blogs, but its own dashboard rewards blogs you already follow. A Togather listing gives your blog a page discoverable by topic instead of by network.
Start on Submit a listing, choose Tumblr, and keep this guide open while you fill each field. You can also browse the live Tumblr platform page to see how approved listings look once published.
Tumblr thrives on taste. Describe that taste without gatekeeping jargon.
Who should submit a Tumblr blog
Owners of a public Tumblr blog that welcomes new readers and followers.
If you are not allowed to share the link publicly, do not submit it — unauthorized listings waste moderator time and may be removed under our Disclaimer.
Correct Tumblr link format
Use your blog subdomain (`yourblog.tumblr.com`). The submit form uses a fixed prefix/suffix for this format.
| Piece | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Fixed prefix on the form | `https://` |
| Your part | `yourblog` |
| Full example shape | `https://yourblog.tumblr.com/` |
Every submit field explained for a Tumblr blog
| Field | What to enter for your Tumblr blog | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Platform | Select Tumblr from the dropdown | Confirms invite/URL validation rules |
| Category | Closest topical fit (Education, Jobs, Gaming, Business, …) | Powers category pages and Explore |
| Name | Real public name, e.g. "Archival Fashion Essays" | Shown on cards and in search results |
| Official link | Public Tumblr URL only, no shorteners | Reviewers must be able to open it directly |
| Short description | 1–2 honest lines, under 300 characters | Appears on cards and search snippets |
| Full details (optional but important) | Longer write-up: who it's for, what happens inside, tone | Helps a real person decide before joining |
| Community rules | One rule per line | Sets expectations from the first click |
| Group policies | How moderation and enforcement actually work | Signals a maintained, serious Tumblr blog |
| Tags | Up to 8 relevant keywords | Improves matching on the Groups search |
| Language | Primary language used | Filters out mismatched visitors early |
| Country | Region the Tumblr blog mainly serves | Helps geo-relevant discovery |
| Your name, phone, email | Accurate contact details | Used for moderation and abuse prevention |
| CAPTCHA + agreement | Required before sending | Blocks automated and bot spam |
Example short description
Tumblr blog posting long-form essays on archival fashion and museum collections.
Example Full details (write longer than this if you can)
Content:
- Collection deep-dives
- Reading lists
- Exhibit notes
Image credits required. No stolen art reposts without context.
Why longer Full details wins
The short description is a billboard. Full details is the brochure. Someone comparing several Tumblr blog listings will open the one that answers who it's for, what actually happens inside, what gets a member removed, and whether there are join requirements like age, city, or skill level. A longer, specific write-up also helps our admin team approve faster, because intent is obvious — thin, generic text ("best Tumblr blog ever, join now") reads like spam even when the link itself is real.

What happens after you click Submit
Togather does not auto-publish anything. Every Tumblr blog submission enters a moderation queue where our admin team inspects the link, name, category, and both descriptions before it goes live. We approve only listings that are valid, public, and non-harmful — everything else stays hidden or gets rejected.
For the broader flow, read how submission and moderation works, then see how the two-step safe redirect protects visitors after approval.
What gets rejected — and when contacts get blocked
We reject listings that include or promote antinational or extremist content, harassment, bullying, doxxing, adult or sexual content outside our policies, scams, fraud, fake jobs, or “guaranteed profit” schemes. If a Tumblr blog submission crosses these lines, the email address and phone number attached to it can be permanently blocked from submitting again.
Practical tips unique to Tumblr
- Describe themes and posting cadence.
- Fashion, Art, or Entertainment categories should match reality.
- Mention your tag system if it helps navigation.
- Adult content outside our policy is rejected; repeat abuse can block email/phone.

Final checklist before you submit

- Full details are long enough for a newcomer to decide in about 30 seconds.
- Rules and policies match what you actually enforce.
- No antinational, abusive, adult, or scam content anywhere in the listing.
- Contact details are accurate — blocks are permanent headaches.
