Pinning to Pinterest Transcript

Hi!

0:04

This is justEileen. Welcome to Pinning to Pinterest.

0:07

I had several people ask me how to pin their links,

0:12

images, and favorite pages to Pinterest,

0:15

So I've created this little training to help those that might also have the same questions.

0:22

Next, go to your Pinterest account

0:24

Sign in with your e-mail address and password.

0:28

0:30

When it takes you to the members site

0:32

Click on your account in the upper right hand corner.

0:34

0:36

Then choose the board that you wish to pin your images to, as I show below.

0:40

0:42

Click on "Add a Pin."

0:44

0:46

Choose the location where the image is stored.

0:50

I will choose a file on my device.

0:52

0:55

Click on the "Red" choose image button.

0:58

1:01

Locate the file and Click on the image you wish to use.

1:05

1:07

Verify that the name is correct and then Click "Open."

1:11

1:13

Pick the Board that you want to "Pin" it on - you may "Pin" the same image on more than one board if you wish.

1:19

Now go back go back and look at your Board and you will see that your new pin has been added.

1:24

1:26

So far we've only "Pinned" pictures. Now let's "Pin" an image that will link to one of our Affiliate sites and possible revenue.

1:35

Are you Excited? :-)

1:39

Choose your board and Click on "Add a Pin," just as you did before.

1:46

1:47

This time I will choose the "Web" for the image location.

1:51

1:53

The "Pin from a Website" box will box will pop up.

1:56

I will choose one of my Affiliate linksites and paste the URL into the pink area, seen below.

2:02

Note that it says "To save links quicker, get the Pinterest browser button."

2:07

Only use the "P" to pin general website pages.

2:11

The Pinterest "P" icon will be added to your toolbar when you use Google.

2:16

I do need to WARN you that the "P" should only be used for sharing general Web Pages. I have not been able to have it link to my Affiliate I.D. URLs.

2:24

So, always use your Affiliate URL in the box.

2:28

Note that the new Windows 10 "Edge" browser does not allow extensions, at this time (Jan 2016).

2:34

So just enter the URLs into the URL area.

2:36

I'm "Clicking" on one of my Wealthy Affiliate Links.

2:41

My Affiliate URL will link people to the main information and Sign-up page, which is linked to my account.

2:48

So I enter my Affiliate URL, for this page, into the Http area.

2:54

2:55

In Wealthy Affiliate this brings up several graphics to choose from.

2:59

Which will link people to the main page URL, matched to my Affiliate I.D.

3:04

3:05

You may also use ANY page that contains your Affiliate identification.

3:10

Here I have chosen one of the beginning courses. I Click on the Affiliate button to get the URL matched to my I.D.

3:17

3:18

This is a close up of the Affiliate button.

3:21

3:24

The URL containing my Affiliate I.D. pops up.

3:27

3:28

I copy and paste my Affiliate URL into the form asking the location of my "Pin."

3:33

It linked to the "Getting Started" course page containing my I.D.

3:38

3:40

The Link's graphic for that page appears. It is your Affiliate Link to that page.

3:46

Click the "P" (for Pinning), as shown below.

3:49

Pick the board where you want to Link the Graphic to be "Pinned."

3:54

3:55

Now you can see the various images and Affiliate Links you have Pinned to the Board.

3:59

Click on an image Test, Edit, or Remove it.

4:05

Just as before, you can go to your board to see all the Pins you have added.

4:11

4:12

Now, enjoy Pinterest. It's a great place for bookmarking special things.

4:17

I hope you've enjoyed this training on Pinning to Pinterest.
