Creating the Account

You have two options when setting up your account on Pinterest.

Option #1: Create a new business account. I would highly recommend doing this even if you have a personal account. That way you can ensure that your account is set up correctly right from the beginning. You can create the account using this link:

Option #2: Convert your current account to a business account. If you go this route, make sure to make any personal boards that you do not wish to be vizable"secret". Convert your current account using this link:

Once your business account has been created, you will need to verify your website. Follow this link for instructions on website verification:

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much for sharing this. I have a doubt though, are we supposed to pin other people's pins to our boards? Do you keep your featured board reserved for your own content. I am a bit confused about how to keep my boards active, also can I use long tail keywords for board names?

I didn't even know that there was such a thing as group boards until I found your training. Thank you!

Great training, thank you! I have a question...you recommend 10 min in morning, 10 minutes in the afternoon and 20 minutes in the evening. At the end of the training you recommend pinning 30-50 pins/day. I don't know if you are super fast but finding/creating 30-50 pins per day would take me a lot longer than a total of 40 minutes/day. Could you please clarify your daily pinterest routine?

I think it comes down to efficiency. If you have a daily "theme" then you can work more efficiently, search, find and add stuff. You just don't want to go down a rabbit hole and end up wasting too much time on pinterest.
