PROVING MY POINT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER'S POST.

I wanted to share a post with you tonight written by Montana Teal, who has only been here a few months. She writes on one of my favorite subjects to talk about here at Wealthy Affiliate----PINTEREST! Check it out!

My Traffic has Exploded!

IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT.

I couldn't agree more with Montana! With the season coming up, when online viewers will be at an all-time high, swing by PINTEREST and Create a Board with some Pins. Join Tailwind and schedule 100 pins for free---and watch your traffic increase at dramatic intervals!

I think Pinning on PINTEREST is one of the tasks here at WA that is:

  • Productive
  • Less time consuming (if set up with Tailwind)
  • A huge way to gain connections and get conversions
  • FUN!

I DIDN'T PIN FOR AWHILE.

With all the other things I have going on, I took a short break from PINTEREST, and, of course, my traffic began to decrease rapidly. So, I found that if I Pin regularly, I'll have great traffic! The more I Pin, the more traffic I enjoy! Because In stopped for a few days, I proved to myself how important it is to keep up with it! So now, I've increased the amount of times per day I Pin to test it out the other way!


THE BEAUTY OF PINTEREST AND TRAFFIC.

The greatest thing with Pinterest, is that you can work several different businesses or websites by creating Boards for each. Then create "Pins of interest" (thus, how they got their name) on each Board---linking each Pin to your website! This way, you have different streams of traffic going to different income streams! Make way for a traffic jam!


A KEY TRICK.

When using Tailwind to schedule Pins, their logo attaches itself to every photo on the web! When clicking on a picture, a page pops up automatically with your Pin post! You then type a title and information about what you are promoting.

And, here's the secret sauce---

Choose 30 hashtags! There is a button to click that brings up and refreshes hashtags relating to your Pin post. You will want to target the dark green hashtags, as they have the most viral traffic going to them. There's even a color-coded chart that tells you the lowest and highest traffic amounts! If you hover over each hashtag, it brings up the amount of people using it! Choose 30 with unheard of amounts of traffic, such as 959K. Then click "add to queue."

Scheduling your Pins is not as hard as you may think!


I may just do a training on all of this soon, so stay tuned!

PLEASE LIKE and SHARE, if you wish, to SPREAD THE PINS! Thank you!

Erin :)!

Great post Erin!

I have no idea what I am doing using Pinterest.

I do have an account and a board, but no one is following me.

Hashtag? Is that German for I don't know? LOL

These things are foreign to me
.
From my end, I am hoping for a miracle to learn how to pin and tweet like a pro.

I am very happy for everyone who are receiving genuine traffic and I would be e en happier getting some too!

Blessings

Maxine

The more you work this business, Maxine, the more you'll get in tune with Pinterest and computer talk. Hang in there. I will do a training soon.

Erin :)!

Great move, Erin!

I am looking forward to the training.

I got to get into it. I need traffic

Start focusing on the photos you put on your site and then set up a Board on Pinterest and Pin each of them to it, connecting them back to your site! Use Tailwind to schedule times.

Erin :)!

Thanks so much Erin, I really do appreciate you. Thank you.

Aww, you're quite welcome, Michael!

Hi Erin, sorry to bother you. Anytime I post something from Printerest, I end up with a blank head. Twitter will not accept this, and when I tried to insert an image into the blank void I was unable to. Really would appreciate your help. Sorry Erin, not finished with you yet also do I have to buy a separate business account. Thank you.

Erin,
Once again this is great I have already saved it :)
Love you for sharing.
