Pinterest is a search engine
Pinterest is a gigantic search engine organised around areas of interest. Think of it as Google with very pretty pictures. People roam around on Pinterest in search of ideas, practical advice. They seek to be inspired. For a targeted search, the keywords used by searchers to look for content are extremely important. However, the big difference with Google is that the search results on Pinterest always show images rather than text results. The image determines whether someone decides to click to access, save or purchase the content. Not only do you need to use the right keywords, you also have to seduce people with an attractive image to make them want to engage with your content.
Optimise your keywords
What keywords would your target audience use when searching for your product or service? Use these keywords in:
- your profile description
- board descriptions
- pin descriptions
Keywords play a vital role. They optimise your content for Pinterest searches and increase the likelihood of appearing in Pinner feeds. In addition, it is likely to improve your SEO on Google, since Pinterest ranks well in Google search results.
Patience is a virtue...
Do not expect quick results. It may take a few months before you start getting results with Pinterest. However, once you start getting some traction, it tends to snowball, bringing you website traffic, leads and sales for months and even years to come. Even if, one day, you decide to stop pinning. I bet you won't though 😉
