When deciding to make a blog private, there are a few factors to take into consideration. The following are a few of the most important:
1. What do you want your blog to be about?
When you make your blog private, it will only be viewable by those who are subscribed to your Tumblr account. This means that if you want people to be able to browse your blog and read your posts, but not have them published on the internet for others to see, then you should make your blog private.
If, on the other hand, you want people to be able to browse your blog and read your posts, but also have them published on the internet for others to see, then you should not make your blog private. It is important to think about what kind of content you would like people to see if your blog is made public or private before making the decision.
2. What kind of privacy do you want for your blog?
There are two types of privacy that you can choose from when making a blog private: public and hidden. Public visibility means that anyone can see your posts and comment on them, while hidden visibility means that only subscribers can see your posts and comment on them. If you want people to be able to follow your blog without having their posts published for everyone else to see, then make your blog public.
If, however, you want people to only be able to follow your blog if they are subscribed (and have access to all of the posts), then make your blog hidden. It is important to think about what kind of privacy setting best suits the content and tone of your blog before making the decision.
3. Will making my primary Tumblr blog private impact my ability to create content on my other blogs?
If you have other blogs that are not made private (i.e., they are public), then any content that is published on those blogs will automatically be made public when it is shared on Tumblr as well. This means that any posts or comments that are made on those other blogs will also be visible on Tumblr when shared there.
If you would like any posts or comments that are published on one of your other blogs not appear on Tumblr when shared there, then you should make that blog private before sharing it on Tumblr. It is important to know how publishing settings affect content sharing before making a decision about whether or not to make a primary Tumblr blog private.
