Yummly is my 2nd biggest traffic referrer on TotsFamily.
For food bloggers, it can be the biggest traffic referrer.
It doesn’t have to take a lot of time for it to happen either, it can be really quick.
Basically, it is a huge online recipe box and the fastest growing food based website.
Adding a recipe is as simple as “yumming” a recipe, it gets added to your personal recipe box, which is public, for all to see, make, and “yum.” It is the easiest social media platform to use.
There is no remembering to post frequent updates or repining of your content.
When you publish a new recipe, hit your “yum” button and you’re finished with it.
