For everyone who uses Tumblr, what's your criteria for following people?

Do you tend to follow back everyone who follows you no matter what they post?

Do you tend to look for people with the same interests as you, like same favourite bands or celebrity's etc?

Do you tend to look for people with similar posts to yours, that you're likely to reblog or like?

Do you follow most of your people through recommendations from other people?

Just your thoughts really :)

Also if you like my posts for any reason, do feel free to follow!

Personally, I only follow people who post nice photos that are similar to ones I would reblog or like. I do promise to take a look at all my followers blogs and if I like them then I will follow them, so I may follow you depending.

Thanks for answering!

Update:

To the first answerer, thanks for the answer and I followed you! xx

    I'd take a look at yours now, but my computer is being ridiculously slow

    Basically, I'll follow people on tumblr if they do one, or both, of these things:

    1) Inspire/interest me.

    2) Make me laugh.

    I do tend to look for people with the same interests as me, that is, interests in things like Harry Potter, photography, Supernatural, F.R.I.E.N.D.S, books... etc, etc.

    I don't find the people I follow through recommendations. Usually, I check out people who are following me - and I tend to add them as well, because more than likely, I love their tumblrs. I also add a few peoole who's posts are frequently reblogged by the people I follow.

    I don't follow anyone.

    I will look at someone's page if I have reason to, and I will look at yours, but I have no interest in 'following' someone. I'm not on Tumblr enough to read in-depth what people have written and/or to look at their pictures.

    I created my page because I was recommended so. I have it for my own purpose, that I can spill my feelings out on there, and I don't really care if other people do or don't think it's good. I'm happy to have followers, but it's not the reason I made it.

    I follow people who don't just have text on their blogs. That's boring. Some it's ok because it makes you look like you have a personality you know. Plus I love art, so any blog that posts art.

    Btw my blog -----> http://abbrieviatedhorizon.tumblr.com/

    Source(s): I followed you.
