Best way to monetize NSFW Tumblr blog with 28,000 followers?
I have kept just the name, I have redesigned everything (I am good with web design, HTML, CSS, and can make practically anything I put in my mind if does not needs some programming language). I have developed the blog til now, and I have almost 28,000 followers (I'm following 378).
By the end of year I will have minimum 40,000 followers.
It's a sofcore porn pics blog, only women in the pics, only alone, and only without "toys", no gifs (moving images) and no videos. So it's a very clean softcore blog, I went this road thinking that if ever Yahoo will want to kill all the porn blogs from Tumblr, the softcore ones may survive.
I have never ever used any blackhat or even greyhat techniques to gain followers or develop the blog, just constantly having blogged or reblogged close to 250 pics almost each and ever day (the max admitted). Only helping tool I use is "X Kit". So technically the blog is also very clean.
Now I think the blog is very ripe to begin being monetized, but I don't want to risk to lose it for some "Tumblr hated" advertising technique I will use.
Also I don't want to go the usual way to advertise for referral $$ porn sites, cam sites, or dating sites and putting clickthrough links up with the own content pics I will post, or putting up some clicktrough ads on the blog's main page or additional pages.
What I want to try is to promote stuff like MLM, moneymaking online, buying stuff through clickbank or/and ebay etc.
I'm thinking to use for this marketing the comments area (caption) of every pic I post or I reblog. I was posting in that area from the very beginning differently worded descriptive links which leads back to my forum's main page, without any problems, and sometimes another link too to secondary blogpages (I have one for example with polls, games, jokes, etc).
I could post besides that link another link which leads directly to the (outside Tumbr) websites to go to, or to a secondary blogpage where I am presenting that particular offer, and only from that page people can go directly to the target websites, or to a secondary blogpage where I can group 3-5 offers, and each has clicktrough links (but not hidden links).
I would rotate every few days these extra posted links under the pics, or maybe every day?
I have almost zero experience with marketing, that's why I'm asking what the best way to monetize?
What advice I can get from guys here with a lots of Tumbr marketing experience?
First, do you think these not directly porn related niches will work for the softcore loving general niche (my follovers), or it's a waste of time trying to advertise anything else but porn sites, cam sites, dating sites, no matter what technique I use?
Second, do you think it will work the way I will try to advertise, and Tumblr won't ban my blog?
I'm also open to joint venture possibilities, if some of you have something good to sell, I can put up special presentation blogpages, people are lead there from the links from below the pics, and from there to your sales pages... etc.
