BDSMLRHow to Post and Reblog on bdsmlr
The two ways content appears
Everything on bdsmlr is one of two things: an original post you made, or a reblog of someone else’s. Original posts are how fresh images, GIFs and text enter the platform. Reblogs are how all of it travels. Your blog ends up as the sum of the two, what you make alongside what you reshare, which for most people means mostly curated reblogs with the occasional original dropped in.
Creating a post
To post, open the create or new-post option, upload your image or GIF (or type out text), add a caption if you like, and, the part people skip, add tags. Tags are how anyone discovers the post in the first place, so a few relevant, specific ones do more for you than a big pile of vague ones. Only post content you own or have the right to share, and credit your sources where you can.
Reblogging well
Reblogging is a single click from your dashboard or from someone’s blog, and it’s the main way you build a feed and get yourself seen. Reblog what actually fits your blog’s theme instead of everything that scrolls past. Leave the original creator’s caption and credit in place rather than stripping them, and add your own tags so the reblog stays discoverable. A tidy blog of consistent, well-tagged reblogs pulls in followers faster than posting at random ever will.
In practice
For most people, running a bdsmlr blog is about 90% reblogging and 10% original posting. You scroll your dashboard, hit reblog on anything that fits your blog's vibe, and it shows up on your blog for your followers, ideally carrying the original creator's caption and credits along with your own tags. Original posts are rarer and worth more. An image or GIF you actually own, uploaded with good tags, is the kind of thing that gets reblogged widely and grows a following. Blogs that do well hold a clear theme, tag consistently, and leave creators' captions intact, so their reblogs read like a curated collection instead of a firehose.
For beginners
Start by reblogging. It's one click, and it's the engine the platform runs on. Reblog things that match the kind of blog you're going for, and leave the original captions and credits where they are. When you do post something original, always add relevant tags, since tags are how anyone finds it at all. Don't strip credits, don't spam tags, and a consistent, well-tagged blog will grow on its own.
For experienced users
Seasoned posters put original content out with a plan, since that's what gets reblogged and builds reach, tag consistently across a themed blog, and reblog selectively so the feed stays coherent. They credit their sources and pay attention to which tags actually drive discovery, often batching posts to keep the blog active. A tightly curated, well-tagged blog beats raw volume, and they guard their originals with backups because the platform can drop things.

Yes: tags are the main way people discover posts. Use relevant, specific tags on both your original posts and your reblogs so your content shows up in tag searches.
