Web 2.0 Mar­ket­ing Tip #37: The Per­fect Tum­blr Theme

Tum­blr can be a great plat­form for es­tab­lish­ing your on­line pres­ence as well as pro­mot­ing your busi­ness. How­ever, with­out a good theme to rep­re­sent you and your busi­ness, it might look un­pro­fes­sional and turn off your customers.

Ways to Get Your Per­fect Tum­blr Theme

It does not mat­ter if you are lead­ing peo­ple from Twit­ter or your ar­ti­cles to­ward your Tum­blr ac­count. What you al­ways have to re­mem­ber is that: first im­pres­sions last. If you want to make vis­i­tors stick around and keep com­ing back, you must se­lect a clean theme that you can use on your Tum­blr blog. Make sure that you cre­ate a good im­pres­sion quickly. Oth­er­wise, you risk los­ing a po­ten­tial cus­tomer be­fore you’ve had any time to present your pitch.

There are ba­si­cally two ways through which you can get the per­fect Tum­blr theme:

  • Se­lect one of the avail­able Tum­blr themes. Tum­blr of­fers largely clean and pro­fes­sional blog de­signs. These are very easy to use and in­stall. How­ever, you have to keep in mind that your theme will be sim­i­lar to hun­dreds or thou­sands of other blogs.
  • Use cus­tom theme. An­other op­tion is to go to your Tum­blr dash­board, and then click “cus­tomize,” “theme,” and then “use cus­tom HTML.” You can then take HTML code from any site that of­fers free Thum­blr themes and paste it into the form.

Themes are a great medium to ex­press your feel­ings and your busi­ness’ pur­poses. If you want to make sure that your vis­i­tors turn into cus­tomers, then you have to make sure that your theme is ap­pro­pri­ate and appealing.
