Pinterest

I still remember my university days when i use to stay awake late at night and used to keep finding the money making ways. I was so desperate for making money that i fake jobs too and git scammed. After all these hustles, one day i was scrolling on instagram and found the make money from pinterest reel and i watched it completely. Then  i researched about it and start working on it. Till today i have made enough money that i have supported my studies and university  life too. Let me share how  i earned money from pinterest.

Pinterest a money making machine

Pinterest is called as a money making machine as it is used worldwide. Pinterest has been the most used website or app recently. It is a simple website in which you uploads a picture of whatever product or virtual product of yours. and then refers it to your website. There are different types of money making methods on pinterest. That are following:

  •  Affiliate Marketing
  • Selling Digital or Physical Products
  • Brand Partnerships
  • Directing Traffic to a Monetized Blog
Let’s explore these ways of making money from Pinterest.
 

1. Affiliate Marketing

Pinterest is used worldwide, and most of the people choose their designs and home decor things from pinterest. Most of the people work in affiliation with brands of companies like amazon, ebay, Walmart, and like different types of companies. They make an affiliation link with them of specific product. Let’s suppose there is a seller on amazon who  is selling a mobile phone. I have a specific affiliate link of that product. On pinterest i post the image of that mobile and paste my affiliate link with it. Now whenever a person buys that phone from my affiliate link, i will automatically get my commission from that product. In this way a lot of people are earning money. 

There are millions of products online that have their affiliate links. On pinterest people to search for design or just to directly buy the product. It all depends on the image as  pinterest is based on the image system. The image tells everything to the customer. If the poster/image is clean and easy to read the user will imidiatelty click it and think about it but if it is messed up, there are very less chances that someone opens it and buys.

2. Selling digital or Physical Products

As i stated above that the pinterest has a very high number of users worldwide, it also has very high  amount of buyers. People love to  buy products from pinterest. If you have a personal brand you can do marketing of your product on Pinterest too. I have a watch brand and almost 45% of sales comes from pinterest. One of my cousins runs a cosmetic brand and 80% of her sales come from pinterest. 
 
On pinterest you make a pin(image) about your product and then directly put your store link or the direct product link with the pin. When a user sees the pin(image) and finds it attractive they then opens the product and go to the link and buys it. That’s how you make money from pinterest selling your digital or physical products.
 

3. Brand Partnership

Pinterest gives a very great opportunity of earning money from brand partnerships. Brands are ready to give money to the people who are actively using pinterest for marketing. Brands always look for people who are actively posting or having a large number of followers with daily posting and high engagement. The brand sponsorship pays money according to your views and engagement with the people.  As the engagement grows, the brand sponsorship starts paying more and more.

4. Direct traffic to a monetised blog

As the pinterest is all dependant on pins and by linking your product or blog with the pins. In this method you create a eye catchy or optimised pin that catches the user attention. Than the user opens the link and and reads your blog. The blog is already optimised and you just get paid according to the number of traffic your blog gained.

I also have used pinterest for my blog traffic. It was my finance related niche and gained traffic in millions from pinterest.

How Pinterest works

Pinterest basically works like:

  • Make an account
  • Verify your account
  • Convert it into a business account
  • Setup it
  • Make pins and upload them
You can directly make a business account or you can make a personal account or then you can convert it into a business account. In pinterest you can add the link of your store or website directly in your bio or you can add the link to the post too. You just need to make an eye catchy pin or a good description that clearly describes your product. Whether it is a digital product or a Physical product. 

Best Pinterest Tips to Increase Traffic

Pinterest also works as a search engin like google but the pinterest is a visual search engine that 90% depends on the image. To generate consistent traffic from pinterest, you dont need to post simple images, Pinterest requires more than that.

Following are the methods of generating the consistent traffic.

  • Use Pinterest SEO
    Pinterest relies on the keywords to understand what type of image or product a user is searching for. So like google you also have to optimise your keyword ranking. Find relevant keywords of your niche that are highly ranked and put them into the title and description of your pin. This helps your pin to appear in the top searches.
  • Design High-Quality Vertical Pins
    Pinterest recommend the pins with the ratio 2:3. Use bright and eye catchy colours. And use easy to read fonts, that will incrase your click chance. A clean and professional pin design can improve your click through rate.
  • Publish Fresh Content Consistently
    Consistency is one of the most important ranking factors on pinterest. Instead of uploading many pins at one times, upload fresh content regularly the  whole week.
  • Link Every Pin to Valuable Content
    Always direct users to high-quality, relevant content that matches the promise of your Pin. Whether it’s a blog post, product page, or landing page, providing useful information builds trust and increases the likelihood of repeat visitors.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Using low-quality or blurry images,can reduce engagement and make your Pins less appealing to users. Don’t ignore keywords, because Pinterest relies on them to understand and rank your content in search results. Posting pins inconsistently can slow your account’s growth, so maintaining a regular posting schedule is important for consistent traffic. Always link your Pins to high-quality, relevant, and fast-loading web pages to provide a good user experience and gain trust. Finally, follow Pinterest’s Community Guidelines and avoid spammy or misleading practices, as violating Pinterest
