How Do Bloggers Use Pinterest?

One of the main ways businesses use Pinterest is by driving traffic to a blog or an eCommerce site. Pinterest is a fantastic way to spread your message to a much wider audience. 

Here are three stats to consider. 

  • Last year 50% of pinners were outside the US 
  • 4 out of 5 US moms use Pinterest
  • 80% of Millennial women were on Pinterest

This means you have access to a lot of people by using Pinterest. If you incorporate good SEO and appropriate keywords with your content, you have access to a larger audience that is ready to buy.

Once you sign up for a business profile, you can create Product Pins and catalogs. These pins automatically sync with inventory and pricing info from your website. Pinners can view the info and can finish the purchasing transaction on your website.

Can Pinterest Be Used for Business?

Blogging isn’t the only way to make money on Pinterest though. 

You can also look into affiliate marketing. Here’s how it works. 

When someone buys a product from a link you share, you make a commission from that purchase. A lot of pinners use this strategy to make money since it doesn’t require maintaining a blog or website on the side.

Here are a few examples of pins that link to affiliate sites.

Another option is to partner with a brand. If you have a large Pinterest following, you can research the demographics in your analytics. If it’s a good fit, you can partner with a brand and create pins that advertise that brand’s products.
