Now while you can any image that you find online, or offline, you really want to make your images as appealing as possible for people to click on.

When I first started using Pinterest I would just pin my featured image and any other images on my website to Pinterest.

Then I started learning a little more about Pinterest and I started creating special images for Pinterest marketing. This is one of the things I have done that made a marked difference to the amount of traffic that I receive from Pinterest. It also improved my Pinterest bounce rate since visitors knew exactly what to expect from my content.

Creating images the right size and in the right way for Pinterest is actually quick and easy to do and it costs you nothing. I highly recommend that if you are going to get serious about Pinterest marketing that you create special images for your Pinterest marketing!

This training just explains the importance of the Pinnable image and how I make it look. If you have not used Canva before and I went too fast for you then please check out this training I did for Canva and designing images:
