How to make money on Pinterest?
Pinterest is one of the social networks, I just characterize it as a service for creating successful visualization boards. A kind of world album with photos, where everyone can put something on their board.
Communication processes between users are carried out due to pictures and signatures, you posted a cat in a suit, tagged interests, added a link to something, even for yourself and a cat on Instagram, and now your picture flew to lovers of pictures with cats in suits, what is not lovely, especially if it also brings good money. And here are several options for how to get this money.
Pinterest is at its peak in the US and Europe, on par with Instagram. As a result, there is a large flow of high-quality traffic directed to the target audience from Pinterest.
The first and most popular way to earn pinterest is to use the social network as a way to promote your brand / product / business / service. Even the most seemingly unusual and unnecessary hobbies can be monetized. All you need to do is post a photo, choose a quality description, and attach a direct link to your website or portfolio. And you get traffic.
Using affiliate programs for Pinterest earnings.
The direct advertiser will write to you in messages only in case of your unprecedented popularity. Hence you have to gain such a large audience. This is not easy. And the tests, as they say, will show how loyal and suitable your audience is. It will be easier for us if we ourselves look for advertisers in the form of affiliate programs
Where to begin:
Actions, in this case, are simple: you have an affiliate link, a picture suitable for the topic, more or less not a small blog with a pair of active boards and a nice description. You send the publication to the board with the attached link and now, pinterest is already working for you (the first, and probably the most popular one, is Aliexpress, there is a lot of it on pinterest). The secret is only in one moment: how to get into the heart of the target audience as clearly as possible and not get bored with it. The ideal ratio of affiliate pins to original pins is approximately 6:1.
Why is the traffic warm?
Traffic from Pinterest is pretty attractive right now, and on several counts at once:
- there is a lot of it;
- it is understandable, the social network practically selects the target audience for you.
If you have already achieved a pleasant number of followers actively sharing your pins both on your boards and in other social networks, then you are on top, and here are two more ways to get more money in your wallet:
- try out paid access to your boards through PAYWALL;
- implementation of paid help for novice bloggers
Both the one and the other paths are quite popular, but they are unlikely to bring a lot of budget, unlike the previous one.
