Web 2.0 Mar­ket­ing Tip #38: Tum­blr Al­ter­na­tives to Discover

In the pre­vi­ous Web 2.0 mar­ket­ing tips, we have con­tin­u­ously talked about the var­i­ous uses and ben­e­fits of Tum­blr. To­day, how­ever, we will put this pop­u­lar blog­ging site aside and look at prof­itable al­ter­na­tives that you might not have used yet.

Tum­blr Al­ter­na­tives You Must Consider

  • Ping.fm. A very ver­sa­tile sys­tem, Ping.fm al­lows you to up­date your var­i­ous so­cial net­work­ing ac­counts at once. That is to say, if you want to post some­thing on Twit­ter, but you wish for it to be posted on Face­book and My­Space as well, then you can eas­ily de­pend on Ping.fm. Com­pared to reg­u­lar so­cial net­works, Ping.fm is def­i­nitely a time-saver worth us­ing, es­pe­cially if you are a re­ally busy businessman.
  • Word­Press. If you’re not sat­is­fied with Tumblr’s blog in­ter­face, then you might want to con­sider us­ing some­thing like Word­Press. Word­Press is a very pop­u­lar pub­lish­ing plat­form to­­day--one you can use for cre­at­ing sim­ple free blogs or even web­sites. Not only is this web­site easy to use, it also of­fers a lot of op­tions when it comes to themes and plu­g­ins; you will surely get sat­is­fied, and, if you spend enough time on cre­at­ing your blog, you will feel like it is a pro­fes­sional website.
