Tumblr will allow users to highlight their posts for $ 1

Tumblr is a microblogging service that is experiencing a dizzying activity in recent months and reaching 120 million users and 15,000 million pages served , surpassing the traffic of Wikipedia and even the WordPress.com. With so much activity, Tumblr has decided to introduce a feature closely linked to the monetization of the service and doing related to the "satisfaction" to see how to highlight content we've written, so that users who want their content to be seen highlighted in the dashboard of Tumblr may do so by paying $ 1.

¿1 dollar to highlight a post? Yes, that simple. The idea is that Tumblr users have this resource to advertise, using a leading brand, content to be displayed with a special icon that appears attached to the publication together with an optional message to the attention of users.

Occasionally, a publication can be designed to transmit large things. You can be the announcement of a new project, promoting a new show awareness for a cause or simply share an amazing picture. Tumblr now have a new option to highlight the really important messages. In exchange for a dollar, your post will stand out in the dashboard with a custom label to ensure that your fans take note of the matter

What has this functionality useful? $ 1 price is not an extremely high to miss this opportunity to promote a publication or a special announcement using one of six icons available on which to print some of the phrases that are preset, both of which the user can combine to your liking.

The approach is quite interesting, especially if someone has a presence on Tumblr commercial purposes since it is a very simple formula (and cheap) to exploit the advertising in the microblogging service.
