How do you gain more tumblr followers?

[Emily]

I have had my tumblr for a year now and i only have 250 followers! I always use tumblrplug.com and I sometime post my own photos from flickr and add tags which give me a couple of followers. But is their any other ways to gain follower quickly because I am fed up with having no followers and all my friends have 1000+ followers when they only have had theirs for 4 months.

PLEASE HELP

Start adding new people that you like/are similar to your blog. Chances are if they like what they see on your blog, they'll follow you too. If you want, I can give you a free promo to help start you off

These are the tips I have to get a bunch of followers:
*Participate in a BUNCH of promos. It gets your name out there
*When you reblog something, it says on the bottom right above the reblog button "Clicking this photo links to the URL:" always put your URL there. I find a lot of blogs through that.
*Set up a Queue, putting it on times you won't be on. Keep in mind about the different time zones, so people in other countries will be on when you're asleep.
*Go to blogs that are popular that you follow, and compliment their blog. Like, a good, genuine compliment, something different and specially for their blog. When they get the message, they'll either, A) go check out your blog, B) Say thanks to you by posting the comment, where other people will see you, or C) Both. Sometimes they won't do either, but at least you made their day!
*Be consistent.
*Follow blogs similar to you. Like you said, they might follow you back.

I hope I helped!
