Pinterest followers pin lots of content the more you pin the more people will

Pinterest presence when people see your profile they can repin your content and
they can follow you the other thing to note when you pin lots of content is
that Pinterest will recommend you to other people pinning similar content
increasing your visibility on Pinterest the main idea behind this strategy is to
focus on creating and sharing quality content that is worthy of being
pind quality content that is focused on helping your audience solve their
problems different types of content you can share include infographics images
articles YouTube videos how-to tutorial podcasts you want to create lots of
quality content you want to pin readily and repin other people's content
regularly use promoted pins when you're just getting started with Pinterest one
of the fastest legitimate ways of increasing the reach of your pins is to
use Pinterest advertising by promoting your pins you are able to put your pins
in front of targeted people who may not have seen it otherwise once you've
promoted some pins you begin to see more followers and interaction on your pins
think of it as a jumpstart to building your profile Pinterest advertising works
even if you have a small budget like most social media advertising platforms
you have the option of paying per click for your advertising so you only pay
when people click or interact with your pen or paper engagements that means
paying for when people repin or interact with your pin on Pinterest you can also
set daily budgets to suit you and you can stop the ads whenever you want if
the ads are not performing well I recommend you run Pinterest advertising
after you've set up all of your boards and pinned all of your own content at
the very least you want to have a full profile before you start running any
advertising you also want to make sure that your website is optimized properly
for mobile devices due to the fact that most Pinterest users access Pinterest
via mobile device so you don't want to drive traffic to your website only to
have it not appear or function properly on mobile creating a bad user experience
and potentially wasting advertising dollars
make sure you optimize your Pinterest boards and pins when you're creating
your boards and writing the description for your pins ensuring that you
incorporate keywords is important google quickly indexes pages from websites with
heavy traffic your pins could show up in the top search results
if your account is properly optimized you want to find keywords that your
audience is searching for and create balls and content around that you can
find these keywords using the Google Keyword planner the Google Keyword
planner will help you find the search volume for keywords as well as give you
different keyword ideas as well you should also check out what's popular on
Pinterest this is a section provided directly by Pinterest that will give you
some ideas on what topics to create your content based on what is trending and
what is popular right now you can find what's popular by clicking on the three
lines underneath the search bar and clicking on popular this will then bring
up the feed of all the different pins that are popular right now add pinterest
widgets to your website whilst the objective of Pinterest is to get people
from Pinterest to your website it makes sense to add Pinterest widgets to your
website by doing this you're making it easy for people to share your content
from your website to Pinterest it's kind of like a Pinterest circle of life add a
Pinterest widget to your sidebar if you have one and a Pinterest plug-in such as
the Pinterest pin a button to make it easy for users to pin your content to
their Pinterest boards join collaborative boards a quick way to
attract new followers and get your content shared is to contribute to a
popular group board Gribble's are boards that allow multiple
Pinterest users to pin their content to the boards when you join a group board
and add value adding well-optimized pins the followers of the boards are likely
to repin your content and become your followers as well group boards are also
great places to start finding and establishing relationships with other
board owners and contributors you can search for Pinterest group boards
relating to your niche from the Pinterest search bar I've searched
social media group boards and from the results I would click on boards here I
can see all of the different group boards click on one and go through them
to find one that's relevant to me and then I
would message the board owner to be added to the board if I wanted to
once I've been added to the board I'll be able to pin my own pins to the board
and interact with other contributors on the board as well so there you have it
