Hi! So, I'm going to share how I got over a million views per month just through
using Pinterest and the strategies that I use to help my Pinterest grow.
Hello. So, we're on my Pinterest site and as you can see, I have 1.1 million unique
monthly users, and that is growing all the time so it's really exciting how
much you can incrementally grow. Now this, the viewers number isn't the most
important number to consider when it comes to Pinterest, but it does give you
a good indicator for how many people are viewing your content and the power that
your content is having. So, we're on Pinterest and we are going to look at
the specific things about Pinterest that can help you to grow. So, I'm just going
to swap screens and show you a pin and just break that down. So, one of the key
things is that you want a really strong call to action. So, in this case it's
three secrets to successful selling and you want to make sure your graphics are
really in brand with you, so look at your logo, make sure your logo or your your
name of your website.com is at the bottom of your is at the bottom of each
pin or somewhere on each pin. Also stick to your brand colors, your brand font so
everything is uniform and really looks attractive so that people recognize your
pins and they'll want to repin them.
The other key things to say, so as you can see on this one, this has got 212
impressions and two clicks. Some of my pins have had like 16,000 20,000 views
and others do less well. All of that cumulatively
has increased traffic to my website and the reason that I started focusing on
Pinterest was that I actually realized that despite spending $1,000 a month on
Facebook ads I wasn't really getting any traffic to my website, but I was getting
much more traffic from Pinterest. So what do you include in your pins? So, I'm just
going to edit the pin...
and you'll see so, in this case I've
actually screwed up slightly because there's not the details that you want to
include. So, you want to have that in your pin just here, so you want to have a good
title and then also make sure that you have the key words, so...
I just say something quickly.
We've written our words and then we also want to make sure
that we add in some hashtags, so that it's found. So, success so storytelling,
don't be afraid to go niche and storytelling, content planning, writing
for business, business tips. So, that's probably enough for now but you could
add more and essentially you want to then save to board it's in and you save
your pin, and that essentially is what you do. Then from if you don't have the
hashtags and things in, then your pins are not going to be found and so it's not
going to have the same, although it has the impressions, it doesn't have that
same impact because the people are not searching for the pin and they're not
finding the pin using the search bar. So, if you look at, you know, I do searches
for everything, whether it's you know from nursery ideas to healthy food to go
to in free for food for toddlers, whatever it may be. So you want to think
of Pinterest like a search engine and make sure that your pins are answering
those questions. The next thing to consider about
Pinterest is also just the graphics. So, making sure that your graphics are
attractive, your photos and everything is on brand and I have a separate video all
about this, which you can download below, which is all about how to use canva to
create successful pins. Another great tool that I use is
tailwind, which has really enabled me to schedule pins and also use a smart loop
system, so that I can re-share them and you know, it saves in all the work. So as
you can see here, all of this is already written in, so the keywords, the
descriptions of it and you can then, and all of these pins.
So, if you'd like to use pin and tailwind I have a link below of using tailwind
and I strongly recommend it if you want to grow on Pinterest.
The thing with tailwind is that it is all about scheduling each other's post,
so it's actually about you collaborating with other others to share their content
and their tips and once people do that, it makes it so much better.
Also think about, so let's say this pin here. This is from someone else but this
is a really long pin and long pins, all these photos actually have you know when
people are scrolling through that goes on and so you beat the scroll that way.
So, as you can see this is from you know another website another website, so it's
not just all about me and my content. It's about sharing and helping others.
So, one of the ways that we do that is through a
basically, we have a tailwind tribe and so, if I go to my tribes here we are. So,
if you'd like to join my tribe, it's a really great way to enable you to kind
of pick up more content players and connect with more people. So, I'd love you
to join my tribe. It is the Online Entrepreneur Collective and as you can
see, we've got 103 scheduled pins. I always feel like I could do more.
In particular I'd love more people to join my tail and tribe. It is one of those things
where you you know, you sort of worry always if it's going to workout, but actually Pinterest
is so remarkably easy and it's well worth the money to invest in tailwind
and it is definitely been a game changer for me. So, hopefully you've
enjoyed these tips of how I have grown to over a million unique users per month.
I really love Pinterest and I would urge you to also start using Pinterest
because even if you prefer another platform like you know, I prefer YouTube
or IG TV, actually I do have a real soft spot for Pinterest and the great thing
is, but if you don't want to start too big on it it's fine and your pins still
are evergreen and still used six months later, two years later, whatever it may be.
