I've realised I'm making a few mistakes with my Pinterest accounts, which are limiting my traffic growth.

Now I see them, I can't unsee them, O_O

It's actually a marvel that I was able to grow my Pinterest accounts despite these mistakes.

Just shows the potential with Pinterest!

Before I get into it, here's a quick sponsor

MISTAKE 1- I was targeted GOOD keywords, not EXCELLENT ones

Let's imagine you have a fashion blog, and you have a post on pink skirts

You target the keyword/ topic: Pink skirts

On the face of it, it looks like a good keyword as it shows up on the drop-down search of Pinterest, and there are lots of option.s

​

But I've been using this tool to find better keywords on Pinterest

It turns out, the search volume is nowhere near as good as other topics, such as :

Cute Modest Outfits, OR Soft Feminine Outfits

Look at the search volume between all three :

​​​

What can you do with this info?

1- Try the free trial of this tool​

​2- Get some high search volume topics for your blog!​

​

MISTAKE 2. I was ONLY targeting Pinterest search topics, not Pinterest Interests

There are two ways for your blog to get found by users of Pinterest and get traffic:

a-When they search for a topic in the search bar, a pin comes up

b- When they are on their home feed, and Pinterest recommends pins they are interested in

​

Go to your Pinterest home feed; what do you see?

Pins you are interested in, because you have interacted with similar pins in the past.

My mistake: So far, I've only been targeting good keywords on the search bar

But I SHOULD also be targeting 'interests' so I can show up on the Pinterest user home feed

How do I do that?

By finding relevant 'interests'

Let's go back to the pink skirts example

​Using the tool , I found the following related interests

​

​

How would I leverage on this info?

I would add these keywords to my Pin descriptions :)

I could also target them as separate keywords too

Honestly, go try this tool, I really like it!

That's all from me today

Gotta go feed my Minnie Mouse !

That's all from me today
