Tumblr's new policy

This issue you are experiencing has to do with their new policy.
they are no longer indexing adult blogs. :-(

I can't include any links yet but if you Google or look at the link in the Admin settings of your Tumblr blog (besides 'NFSW' option) you'll see it.

I noticed I wasn't get any followers and wondered why. I've now realised non of my posts are appearing in search. If you search for any of the tags in my posts they don't show up. Also if you type the name of my blog into the search box, it doesn't find it. I've tried searching for my tags while logged into someone elses account, but they don't show. I have it set to show nsfw posts.

Its like tumblr is hiding me?

As far as I can tell I am sticking to all the rules. Has anybody else had any problems like this?

After you've used the account for a while to do things like Following other blogs, Liking posts, and customizing your blog's appearance, the feature will be unlocked so you can use it. We apologize for the inconvenience.

However I have been using the service for over two weeks, customised my blog, been following, blogging, reblogging, liking and commenting and still the same problem.
