All About Pinterest
Pinterest can be defined as it is - ‘pin your interest.’ It is a site where you can pin the images or even videos that interest you and share it to your online friends. You will also get to have your own profile page with all the pinned images or videos in it. You can even categorize them into albums to better organize your thoughts. To begin, just visit Pinterest.com and request fo invitation or ask one of your online friends to invite you.
Searchable Pins
Now, as you start making pins, you will definitely want it to be viewed by your online friends. The descriptions of your pictures may be as simple as ‘funny!’ or ‘beautiful’ but that does not really appear at the top when people use the search engine. Instead, you can use keyword descriptions to make it more searchable. With that, there is a higher chance that your pins will get repined. Pins can also be a way for you to grow your business. Make it one of your marketing strategies and see your sales go up!
Editing Pins
There are times when we mistakenly put a specific image or video to wrong albums. This is one of the common errors by users but it is easy to edit them. What you can do is hover your pointer to a specific image and choose the “Edit” option. You can then transfer your image or video to wherever album it should be in.
If you need to search for that particular image, just go back to you profile by clicking your name at the upper right part of the screen. Now, click the ‘Pins’ options where it leads you to all your pinned images from recent to older ones. If you already organized your images, then your ‘Boards’ will appear. With that, you can search your pins and organize them further.
Tagging By The Rules
If you want a specific person to view your image, tag their name into it. To do this, just add the ‘@’ sign upon writing the description of your pin. It is also good to understand the rules of pinning and repining. This unique social media site is free of charge, so it is ideal not to abuse it by following the rules.
These are the basic things that you may want to know about Pinterest. The popularity of this social media site is growing as the days progress and you may find it interesting and unique especially when you love checking out pictures and videos. It can also be a good way to grow your business too!
Tomorrow I am going to show you how to link up with trusted bloggers using Pinterest.

Hello Anita. I agree. Pinterest is really useful, both from a business and a personal point of view. The boards are a very good way of keeping images grouped together. Thanks for this.
You are welcome. I need to do some more work on my boards and add some. It is always a job in progress. Anita
Nice post on Pinterest. I love Pinterest and can sometimes spend way too much time there looking for funny stuff. But I also share my blog posts, and others’ posts as well. In face, you’re going up on my “Blog Shares” board right now. Cheers!
Thank you so much. I have to start remembering to pin my blog posts everyday. Have a great evening. Anita
Hey Anita,
Thanks for writing this; Pinterest is really gaining momentum and marketers need to get on it. I have an account and only recently started using it but need to step it up!
What is your Pinterest link? Here is mine http://www.pinterest.com/jeffmcgearypage.
Good stuff!
Best,
Jeff
There is quite a bit you can do with Pinterest. Here is my link: http://pinterest.com/anitalevesque
Great advice Anita. I’ve decided to do more Pinterest this year and incorporate it into my business model. Some of FB will have to go! 🙂
I also have to work more on mine too. When you work on one part of your business, it seems the other one suffers. There should be three of me, even though my husband would not agree. LOL Have a great day Stella. Anita
