How Make Money Sharing on Pinterest, And Here’s How

Even though Pinterest has been around since 2010, it is currently taking the Internet by storm. Beginning in 2012, Pinterest has surpassed YouTube, Google Plus and LinkedIn combined.  It is now the third largest social media platform behind Facebook and Twitter. Due to all of the recent algorithm changes on the Google search engine, people are looking for new ways to generate traffic to their websites. We will explore how you can leverage Pinterest to do just that.

For all intents and purposes, Pinterest is a social media site that has over 80% participation by females. Companies and individuals that have products and services that target women tend to do exceptionally well. You can target your passion if you are interested in promoting crafts as well as others that promote products that women may be specifically interested.  After navigating through the site, you will notice that all types of interests are covered from handmade garments, jewelry, shoes, clothing as well as items that you may not have considered.

Personal development guru Tony Robbins mentions that success leaves clues. On this platform, it would behoove you to check out other companies that are currently doing well. Why are they standing out above the rest? What type of products or services are they promoting? Are they constantly selling or are they using this platform for engagement? These are some of the things to consider before sticking your toe into the deep waters of this significant social media platform.

In recent years, the economic climate has been rather dismal for people in all walks of life. Popular posts by others on Pinterest also seem to have an approach that highlights inspiration. People love to be inspired. What are you inspired by? You will notice that there is a little bit of give and take and people are attracted to those that are genuine in their passion and desires.  You’ll also notice that business can actually be obtained when using this concept. In essence, you are not directly advertising your products and services but rather engaging others the way you would naturally in the off-line world.

You wouldn’t go to a party and stand in the corner and talk to yourself would you? If you are regularly pinning up products that fascinate and make them speculate, they will need to know who you are, just what you do, as well as just what makes you so unique.  More importantly, it is best if you comment and share what others are talking about. This way you are a part of the conversation instead of yelling at the top of the mountain tops trying to garner attention.

There’s a mind shift you need to accept when thinking of taking your business onto Pinterest.  Pinterest is all pictures. There are ways to pin write-ups yet they do not draw in attention. You will definitely view a growing market of info-graphics on the network.  This is simply a means to advise a statistical and also precise account in a graphic, pinnable means to get your point across.

In the popular movie, Field of Dreams, there is a saying that you can build it and they will come. This is surely a recipe of disaster if you were to try this on this social media platform. The companies that are successful are active participants who post images regularly. You should also test to see what regular actually means for you so that you do not “over share.” By no means should you only post once and then expect a tsunami of traffic to your website.
