Weblogging? Tumblelog? Tumblr!

We’ve been big fans of Tumblr (one of the web’s top weblogging/blogging platforms) for a few years now. Although we’ve enjoyed other platforms like Soup.io and Posterous – Tumblr’s ease of use, utility and community keep us coming back for more.

Jtree on Tumblr

In the early days, most content produced on Tumblr platforms consisted of syndicated Twitter, Flickr, blog and RSS feeds. However, Tumblr has since take an emphasis off syndicating and placed it on sharing. This move helped preserve the integrity of Tumblr produced content in many ways.

Here’s a testimonial we received from Marketing Manager, Mike Spinosa…

Before launching a SEO campaign with Jtree.net, we couldn’t be found online at all. Jtree was able to increase our organic search engine ranking in Google for our primary keyphrases, surpassing thousands of our competitors in the process. They were even able to get our top keyphrase on the coveted page 1 of Google, and increased conversions for our target service by approximately 150%!

Their SEO reporting application not only kept us in the loop but allowed us to watch our campaign’s metrics steadily increase over time. Josh also presented multiple times about the status and performance of our campaign and even presented to a full-house at our open-house about reputation safeguarding. If you are looking for a SEO or PPC provider, look no further.

Thank you Mike and SolutionPro! It was our pleasure! 😀
