How to make a nifty Pinterest widget for your site!

To make a widget go to the settings menu:

Click on "Make a widget". That will bring you to a place where you can copy code for your page. Click on "Learn More" first for options, choose what you want and then copy the code. Here is the one I made recently. I shows the last ten things I pinned. It looks really sharp with all the holiday pictures in there:

Next I will show you how to place your code.

I think even Kyle mentioned in one of his trainings that he wasn't all that sure about Pinterest, but he pins things there anyway. I got the idea to use it for business because of him mentioning it, but I'm just NOW starting to really understand it's value, so I thought I'd share my process.

I need to put some more work into mine, have my business on there, plus personal interest as well...but need to pin others to my account. Thanks for sharing. :))

That was a big a-ha for me, Kim--to realize that I didn't have to pin just my own stuff. My most popular board on my personal Pinterest page I didn't write ANY of the articles for, it's just a subject that interests me. And I pin recipes that interest me to try, as well as my own. I was shocked to see that I have over a hundred followers on a couple of my personal boards--just because they like what I find. Who knew? :-)

Hey, Loes, I will help you any day with Pinterest because I finally get it. Don't ask me about Twitter though. I don't get Twitter...I have a few Twitter accounts, but I avoid them. :-)
