Pinterest is a great opportunity to express yourself and your interests.
Millions of users enter the social network every day and enjoy colorful pictures.
Among other things, this social network is good because even a small hobby can be turned into a source of income. We will talk about this below.
Step 1. Create a themed board/boards. For example, if your niche is knitting, add a photo of a sweater.
Step 2: Add a photo or graphic to your board. Tip: In the Alternative Text field, it is better to enter more text. When a user attaches an image from your site, the text in the Alternative Text field automatically fills in the Pinterest description. Thus, each “pin” will have a detailed description.
Step 3. Repeat. It will take some time to attract subscribers. There are ways to speed up this process, such as posting on group boards.
- Traffic from Pinterest to the site Below we see the transitions from Pinterest to a niche blog for the period January-February 2019: Judging by the screenshots, on average 3,500 visitors come from Pinterest daily. Each user views 3.3 pages on average; per month is more than 300,000.
You can add a Pin It Button to your site so that visitors can save images to their personal boards. You can advertise on the site (AdSense). - Affiliate links Manual moderation, lack of information and 3 million monthly users – review of Bigo Ads (analogue of TikTok) You can link your “pins” with affiliate links. Pinterest allows this.
- Paid access to “boards” If your “boards” have a lot of subscribers, you can test paywall.
- Sponsored Pinterest posts are an opportunity to increase your traffic and get more visibility for your brand. Offer your clients sponsored placements and get paid for it.

Buy an unpromoted account/board, make it popular, and then sell it. Or, create an influx of traffic to the site through Pinterest and sell such a web resource.
