Increase Traffic to Your Blog or Website With Pinterest

Pinterest is an incredible way to drive traffic to your website or blog. But how do you make sure that your pins are seen by as many people as possible?

1) Choose a catchy pin and post title that will attract attention on Pinterest

 

When you create a pin, be sure to use a catchy post title that will attract attention. The pin design text should accurately reflect the content of your post and pique the interest of readers. You may also want to consider using keywords in your title to help improve your chances of being found by Pinterest users because the Pinterest AI does read the text on your pin design!

2) Add a “Pin It” button to your website or blog so readers can easily share your posts on Pinterest

 

Adding a “Pin It” button to your website and blog posts makes it easy for readers to find your website and share your content on Pinterest. This simple addition will allow readers to quickly and easily add pins of your posts to their own boards.

3) Make sure your website and blog are mobile-friendly 

 

A huge majority of Pinterest users use the app, which means it’s essential to have a mobile-friendly and optimized website. Otherwise, that traffic you are driving from Pinterest won’t stick around long. 

4) Use keywords in your pin descriptions and board titles

 As a visual search engine, the two most important factors are the keywords you are using and the design of your pins. The keywords are what gets your pin seen by the right people, but your design needs to capture their attention enough to click-through to your website. That’s why your keywords and pin descriptions are so important. Nobody will see your pin if you aren’t writing pin descriptions that are optimized with the right keywords your audience is using. 

5) Stay consistent and create fresh pins regularly

The more pins you have, the more traffic you’re likely to drive to your website. But it’s not just about quantity- quality is important too! To keep people engaged, be sure to create fresh and original pins regularly. This will help ensure that your content is seen as relevant and valuable by both the Pinterest algorithm and Pinterest users. 

Final Thoughts

The most important factor and probably the most frustrating for most business owners and bloggers is that Pinterest takes time. Because it is a search engine, it takes time for the algorithm to understand your account, your content, and who needs to see it. But, Pinterest is so worth the time investment as it is one of the best organic platforms to grow your traffic.
