Introduction

Once you start blogging, it wouldn't take long till you hear that Pinterest can be a great traffic source for almost any blogging niche, especially if it can be easily visualized.

Pinterest is great to drive traffic to the posts that you can't rank high on Google because of too competitive keywords.

To get the traffic, you need to create multiple pins for each post and re-pin them frequently to many Group Boards. This will give your pins more exposure and facilitate re-pins and clicks that lead to your blog.

Keeping the track of all the boards and pins quickly becomes an issue that requires some sort of tool to help you, as no one is able to remember what and when was already pinned to each board.

If you are just a beginner, like myself, you probably try to keep the costs low and are not ready to invest in any automation tools like Tailwind.

I've created this training to show you how to track manual pinning in Excel to make your life a bit easier.

In the training, I'm going to cover:

1. Tracking Group Board applications

2. Tracking the boards rules

3. Tracking manual pinning dates with conditional formatting in Excel

Ready to start?

Good stuff Mary!

I also am just now venturing into the world of Pinterest. So this will be a very useful tool to utilize as I go forward.

I also am trying to use free methods of tracking my social media activities. At least for me, I have a hard time justifying spending too much until I know what I’m doing at least somewhat. Once I master manual methods, I may look into automation tools. At that point I’ll have a better idea of what my needs are.

But until then, thank you for the spreadsheet training.

Well done!
Jeff
