Making Money With Tumblr Blogs And Amazon Products

Tumblr is a popular blogging platform where users can create blogs about their own personal hobbies and pastimes or share their favorite photos or quotes. The main service offered by Tumblr that should be the interest of any internet marketer is the ability to like, reblog and follow other user’s blogs and blog posts.

The money making method that is going to be shared here is going to take advantage of this community orientated blogging, with the blog content having links to various products on the Amazon network hoping to generate income when users click-through.

You are going to be setting up a brand new blog on Tumblr with a specific niche subject that uses various photos as content to hopefully get likes, follows and reblogs of the content shared. The subject you choose for your Tumblr photo blog doesn’t really matter, but you should try and choose a subject that other user’s would be more than likely to share on their own blogs with your Amazon affiliate link embedded.

After choosing your niche and creating a Tumblr blog with a relevant title and theme, you will need to make sure you register as an affiliate at Amazon.com. Once the previous steps have been completed you are going to start the process of populating your Tumblr blog with niche related photos embedded with a link back to your affiliated Amazon products.

The best piece of software to help with this process is Tumbleforce which helps you scrape and post niche relevant photos embedded with Amazon affiliate links, and also find relevant Tumblr users who are interested in your niche and will more than likely reblog and like your posts, or actually follow the blog you have created.

Tumbleforce is the software that will be used in this money making method so it is highly recommended you purchase this software to help automate much of the processes involved in building a popular Tumblr blog. The first thing you need to do when opening the Tumbleforce software is to enter the relevant username and password for your Tumblr blog.


Then you will be using the Tumbleforce scraper to scrape images to post on your Tumblr blog, so where its says ‘Flickr’ choose ‘Pinterest’ from the drop down list and then select a relevant category to scrape photos from. Next set the pages to 10 so that the scraper will gather enough photos for you to use on your Tumblr blog and finally click ‘Scrape’ to start the process.

Once the Tumbleforce software has scraped enough photos you will now start the process of post the photos to your blog, so right click the list of photo urls scrape from Pinterest and select ‘Check all’ so that a tick appears in the box next to the URLs.

Now you will need to select an Amazon product to link to with your affiliate code embedded, make sure you are logged into Amazon.com and find a product that is relevant to your niche. Once you find a relevant product to promote then select ‘Link to this page’ on Amazon.com and copy your affiliate link to the clipboard.

Paste your Amazon affiliate link into the box titled ‘Source URL’ and also into the box titled ‘Clickthrough URL’ inside the Tumbleforce software. Put some relevant keywords in the box titled ‘Tags’ and enter #COMMENT into the box marked ‘Post’, and then finally right click the list of photo URLs that were scraped from Pinterest and select ‘Post’ then ‘Auto-select’.

The software will now start posting the photos with comments to your Tumblr blog all embedded with the affiliated link to your chosen Amazon product. The next thing you will need to do is follow some other Tumblr users in your niche to help gain exposure to your blog posts. and hopefully generate some likes and reblogs of your photo content.

In Tumbleforce choose ‘Tumblr Users’ from the drop-down list in the top right menu, enter in a relevant keyword for your niche, set the pages to 20 and the click ‘Scrape’ so the software starts gathering Tumblr users for you to follow. Once enough Tumblr users have been scraped for you to follow, just right click the list of URLs and select ‘Check all’ and right click the list again and select ‘Users’ then click on ‘Follow’.

The software will now follow other Tumblr users in your niche and hopefully you will gain some followers and more importantly reblogs, likes and hopefully a click-through to your Amazon affiliate products. That is basically what the money making method is about and all that is recommend to do now is, continue to add new photos in your niche, possibly choose other Amazon products to link to, follow other Tumblr users and unfollow users that are not following you back.

Just by doing this process on a regular basis within a few weeks you will be building a popular Tumblr blog, that will start to get reblogs and a clickthrough to your Amazon products. What is really great about this method is that even if the person is not interested in the Amazon product they clickthrough to, there is a good chance they will browse and look for other products that they may purchase and earn you a commission.

  1. We also love the re-blog feature and try to re-blog a random blog at least once a day and I like the email-to-post feature as I use this a lot when I am away from work.
