Who's Stalking Me On Pinterest?

July 17, 2013 0 Comments

Are you stalking me on Pinterest? That's awesome, but why should I care? Pinterest is growing by leaps and bounds. It's quickly become the belle of the social media ball for some retailers, who are seeing a growing number of traffic referrals from the social sharing site. Unlike many social platforms, Pinterest has two things going for it: it isn’t just a bunch of early adopters and it leads to actual sales.

As of July 2013, Pinterest has 70 million users.  Pinterest has become one of the most efficient traffic sources, surpassing Twitter, Google + and Linked In combined for my business, orglamix.com. Naturally, a lot of bloggers and social media marketers are embracing Pinterest to increase social media reach and to drive traffic and sales to their sites. Here are 10 Interesting Pinterest Facts.

While pins and repins are great, the trick to using Pinterest effectively is to increase engagement with your audience. I've found the best way to do this is to check who's pinning your images, then engage them.  This also gives your pins a boost. The following tips work well for me.

Pinterest Tips:

  • Always like and comment on pins from your site to give them better ranking and increase their reach.
  • Repin some of the most popular, relevant images.
  • Follow those who pin your stuff, encouraging them return to your site.

Now let’s give it a try with your site:
