About

Today, SmugMug and Flickr help photographers of all kinds protect, share, and sell their photos. From casual smartphone shutterbugs to professional portrait artists, we provide the essential tools that photographers need to grow their skillset, their following, and their profits. We want to help people make their photos available to the people who matter to them. Maybe they want to keep a blog of moments captured on their cameraphone, or maybe they want to show off their best pictures or video to the whole world in a bid for web celebrity. Or maybe they want to securely and privately share photos of their kids with their family across the country. Flickr makes all these things possible and more! To do this, we want to get photos and video into and out of the system in as many ways as we can: from the web, from mobile devices, from the users' home computers and from whatever software they are using to manage their content.

About

Tumblr is so easy to use that it’s hard to explain. We made it really, really simple for people to make a blog and put whatever they want on it. Stories, photos, GIFs, TV shows, links, quips, dumb jokes, smart jokes, Spotify tracks, mp3s, videos, fashion, art, deep stuff. Tumblr is 511 million different blogs, filled with literally whatever. Turns out that when you make it easy to create interesting things, that’s exactly what people do. All those great, random blogs your friends send you, those are Tumblr blogs. We’ll help you find and follow blogs like that, and we’ll help other people find and follow yours. Once you follow a blog, all of its posts show up in your dashboard, just like you’d expect. See something great? Reblog it to your own blog. Add commentary if you like. Make it your own. Other people will do the same to your posts. That’s how you meet people here.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Wide international membership; significant (but declining) proportion of photographers vs. just viewers; organisation of photos into subject-interest groups, set up and controlled by members; inclusive of NSFW photos; availability of stats on viewing of your photos (but recently become unreliable); still some community spirit; generally helpful and responsive admins.

Cons

  • Slow and fluctuating loading of pages, especially "notifications"; shift towards it becoming a photo storage rather than exhibition / discussion site; poor layouts requiring scrolling through almost full-size images rather than quickly-loading thumbnail pages; bizarre decision to charge contributing photographers rather than "consumer" viewing members with no on-site reward for successful / popular images; resulting from this, a growing commercialisation and use by professional glamour / porn photographers to market their work elsewhere rather than by amateur enthusiasts who would be delighted with small rewards by the site to recognise their work. (I understand this shift in business model is based on advertising / marketing but it is a big negative from the site experience point of view)

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • You can have your blog up and running, and decent looking, well under an hour even without looking through the paid theme options. Tumblr lets you post anything from just pretty pictures to lengthy blog posts. Posts can be public, password protected, or entirely private, which makes it great to keep as a personal diary. Tags help organize your content and help you find other people's content.

Cons

  • Not really optimal for businesses and audience engagement compared to other platforms out there. If you're only posting images, Instagram would probably get more eyes on your photos. Wordpress offers far more customization than Tumblr if you want a more classic blog. If you're not using a premade theme, customizing your Tumblr blog can be a chore because it doesn't work the way you'd expect. There's a lot of garbage content on the site as well, and finding anything or standing out is an uphill battle.
