(Anonymous) 2013-04-14 02:20 am (UTC)(link)-starting Tumblr is hard. At first no one notice you, but that is because no one know you yet, so you have to make yourself visible on the fandom. Like posts made by other fans, reblog a lot of what's happening in your fandom, and add your own commentary to texts posts. Track your fandom's tag a lot, and get to know who are the people you'd like to be friends with, and the sort of things they post about.
-Probably by this point someone will start following you. Thank them for the follow via an ask or a private message. If possible, check their blog and compliment them for something you'd liked about their opinions/interests or things you had in common. This first step is really important, because you're establishing the foundations of what could become a nice relationship. Important: don't lie, be honest about it!
-Gradually, start following other people. Some of them will thank you, and you can use this oportunity as well to start a conversation. If not, you can send them a message telling them how much you like their fics/art/opinions whatever that had made you follow them in the first place.
-When writing your own opinions, be corteous and civilized about it. Don't write "I think those who like Y are a bunch of idiots", but "Y is not my cup of tea, I'm a X fan, but I don't mind people who like Y". Chances are someone you know likes Y, and over time people who doesn't share your interests will follow you anyway, so you don't want to offend them. If you really hate Y, consider blocking that tag with Tumblr Savior so you don't have to see it on your dash. Follow people who shares your particular tastes.
-Try to stay out of wank. If wank happens, ignore it.
-Answer other people's questions, comment on fics, comment on fanart (never forget sourcing it when reblogging), participate! Slowly, you'll create a nice comfy network of online friends. :)
Hope this helps!
