Affiliate links

There has been some recent controversy about the use of links in Pinterest and you can read some of the background to the stories here.

However, this should not deter you from using your affiliate links.

Here are three examples of users (including Jay) promoting Jaaxy the unrivalled keyword tool

If you don't have the Pin It Bookmarklet

  • This is how you can add links from Amazon.
  • Sign into your associates account
  • Search for your product

  • Click on 'Get Link'
  • Choose 'Text only'
  • Click on the link in preview box

  • The item will appear with your affiliate link included in the url

  • Return to Pinterest and select add a pin and paste in URL with affiliate link

  • Complete all other information as shown - ensuring you have selected the right board and pin it

  • Image with affiliate link now appears on board with other shoes

An excellent walk through, I'd signed up awhile ago but hadn't paid much attention to it. Well after learning the full process in this tutorial, I could see I've been ignoring an awesome resource. As usual thank you so much for helping me to see it.

Thanks Todd. Let me know when you have time and want to start using it. As so many users on Pinterest are women it may be an ideal medium to promote some of your stuff.

Thanks for this. It is exactly what I need. I have put off getting involved because it represented one more thing to learn, and I'm so busy. Maybe I was growing it out of proportion. Now with your help, I can jump on board.

Thanks Jean. I hope that you find it helpful to get started. I'm currently working on a follow up so that when people have got to grips with the mechanics of Pinterest you can move on to making it work as an effective marketing strategy.

Beverley, I'm hooked on Pinterest. It's so much fun. Addicted. Now I have to use it wisely as a marketing strategy, though I did put my affiliate products in there with links to my site. I'm sure there's more
to know.

A wonderfully clear and concise piece.

Pinterest is continuing to evolve and has a user base that cannot be overlooked. It should be part of everyone's social marketing agenda's and your image selection (on your site or articles) should be considered in the context of their share factor.

Thanks Kyle. I think it's going to be interesting to see how it does involve. I think some people are going to ignore it because they see it predominantly as a 'women's network' which I think is unwise. I believe tthere are a lot of as yet untapped possibilities and I want to be part of that.

Yeah, being an early adopter will have long term benefits. Some items (pins) can get undeniable reach if they go viral. The world of repins is one that should be sought after.
