How Do I Increase Blog Traffic On Pinterest?
1. Upload daily pins
2. Design attractive pins
3. Add focus keywords
4. Create new boards based on your niche
5. Join Pinterest groups
What is a Board On Pinterest?
Board works like a category when you create a board related to a pin’s niche. You should SEO their board. Don’t forget to add keywords related to your category.
What is The Difference Between a Board and a Pin?
A board on Pinterest is like a category where you can collect and organize your pins. You can create different boards for various topics or interests and save related pins onto them.
On the other hand, a pin is an individual image or idea that you save to a board. It’s like a bookmark for content you like. You can click on a pin to see more details, and it often includes a link to a website or blog where you can learn more about that specific idea or image. So, a board is where you organize your pins, while a pin is the content itself that you save to those boards.
Upload Regularly Pins
This is the key to the whole process. If you don’t upload pins constantly your account never grows and you never be successful as a Pinterest blogger.
Final Thought!
Remember if you start something new, strictly work regularly until it becomes your habit. After that, it would be easy to work on constantly.
On Fiverr and Upwork, I work with multiple people. 90% of people fail when they start something new because in starting they are very energetic and work constantly. After some time passes they get bored or move to another thing. They could not stick to one thing.
Everything takes time. Always try to make engaging content. Your deep interest and hard work get attention and people start to notice you. If we are not working properly why do you expect other people to show their interest?
If you have any queries or need any guidance, you can ask me without any hesitation because by starting this blog my main purpose is to encourage and help you to make money at home. What difficulties or mistakes I made in starting you do not repeat.
Feel free to drop comments below because your honorable words are my power, they encourage me to create more content😊
