Tumblr Traffic for Mainstream

Any of you guys have luck on using tumblr for mainstream traffic? I started my tumblr blog in August and upon creation I checked it as "NSFW." I followed all of CrakREvenue's advice and I can't get a single visitor after 100+ posts now. Sure, I could do a lot more. I could add reddit, twitter, and all that. But this was a test. The test failed. I'm not going to do all that other stuff if I don't see anything at all. It's like trying to resurrect a dead horse. My intuition tells me this just ain't working.

So I'm thinking why not just choose a topic I like. Like for instance... let's take Oreo Cookies for example. Create a tumblr Orego blog. Post pictures of Oreos and then have it lead to your Oreo fan website with each picture. Then just throw up some ads. What do you all think of this? What's the legality rule with photos on tumblr? As far as copyright?

To post as much as 24 times a day you really need to reblog stuff. I think with mainstream you wouldn't have to be so excessive if you don't have as much competition with given niche.
