How to Grow your Business on Pinterest

Ideas, whether big or small, can inspire anyone to flourish. Pinterest might not be the top-of-mind social media platform for some business owners, but there are a whopping 443 million people who use Pinterest per month as of 2022

Create your business account

Using a business account can provide you with access to resources, including exclusive content formats, sophisticated analytics, shopping options, and the capacity to set up an ad account to market your material.

Make sure your Pinterest bio and username are optimized so that your followers can easily find you. 

Plan your Boards

When you’re deciding on your board names, consider their relevance to your topic and include keywords that will help your content show up in your audience's search results. Make your descriptions follow suit and consider your pins evergreen.

Create new content consistently

Build up a content calendar and aim to post at least once a week. Be consistent and ensure you’ve got the technical specs covered. Pinterest Trends can help you see what users are currently searching for.

Visual appeal is key

Never post poor-quality images! You want your audience to see your content as pin worthy. Remember that one pinned post can easily blow up across different users.  

Study and use rich Pins. These are organic pins that can either be a Recipe rich Pin, Article rich Pin, or a Product rich Pin. Make sure relevant links are in place to lead your captured audience directly to your website or social media page.
