Now that you've got your 15+ boards created, your next step is to start pinning content to them.

Start pinning to your boards, and pin at least 6+ pins to each for starters.

Why 6+?

Because the board preview shows up full after about that many pins which means that your boards won't look so new or empty.

TIP: Create Keyword Rich Pin Descriptions

For starters, you should be sure and pin more of other peoples content than your own. So if you don't yet have much content of your own, that is perfectly fine.

A good rule to follow at the beginning is the 80/20 rule. Pin 80% of other peoples content and 20% of your own. Pinning other peoples content will attract them to your own Pinterest profile as well, so it is important to do this.
