Why Rich Pins are Important for Your Blog

It is normal for people to give up on something when they get infuriated in trying to make use of that particular thing. Same goes for those who may have been frustrated in trying to enable Rich Pins without success. To help redirect your interest to Pinterest Rich Pins, here are some important reasons why Rich Pins are important to your blog.

  1. Pinterest has a global audience with majority of its users outside the United States. Your brand or content shared on the platform with Rich Pins exposes you to this global audience and improves your opportunities
  2. You are able to communicate much more information about your products with Rich Pins
  3. It isn't as complex as it seems; once you get a hang of it, the complexity disappears
  4. Pinners are more likely to share images that have Rich Pins than images that don't – leading to more shares, visibility, and traffic to your blog
  5. It is a branding strategy for users who operate business accounts on Pinterest. Your icon and brand name appears on your post
  6. Pins naturally enjoy longevity because they can be found on search engines long after you posted them. Shared images with Rich Pins will present more information about your blog when found in search engines.

This isn't an exhaustive list, as there are many more benefits to be enjoyed in using Rich Pins.

Hi Israel.

Could you tell me whether I should be a person on Yoast SEO for Pinterest or an organization? I think I have already claimed my Pinterest account as my posts come up on Pinterest.

I understood most of your explanation here of how to get Rich Pins showing on Pinterest with Yoast. However, I got stuck when I saw Organisation Social Profiles.

That option doesn't come up as I am showing as a Person, not Organisation in my Yoast dashboard...

Hope that's clear?

Kindly advise...

Hey Stella, it depends on whether you want to operate a personal or business account. If you desire to continue as a person, a personal account would suffice. I hope I spoke your mind!

Thank you, Israel,

I certainly learned a lot here on how to validate Rich Pins. I am interested to know what the added information is that will be displayed with my pin once validated as a Rich Pin?

Thanks for stopping by, Alex! Yeah, you'll find information relevant to your blog niche. And that's why a link to any of your blog posts is required for rich pin validation. Thanks for the curiosity, my friend! See you at the top soon!

Hi Israel
Great Training thanks.
Shouldn't users deactivate the All in one SEO plugin, before installing the Yoast plugin?
Most Websites from WA come with the All in one SEO ready installed.
All in one SEO has this function also and you can activate social meta tags.
Cheers Sylvia
