Marketing on Pinterest?

I am getting good traffic from it.. what I need to work on is now conversions. Its pretty easy to get discouraged when you see your traffic numbers climb and your conversions are close to nill...

 

That is frustrating - are you direct linking your images back to your site?

 

I've heard of a few people making descent money on Pinterest but those are users who are pinning generally 50+ pieces a day and have quite the following as is.

 

I am totally agree with you.

 

If you'll consider Pinterest as one of your social media marketing strategy. then go for it! The concept of pinterest is sharing images/pictures that if you will click on it, the browser will be directed to your blog/blog site.

 

I havn't join on pinterest yet but today I have visited this site. It's looking great. Hope will join soon.

 

I started a recipe site, specifically aimed at Pinterest - seems a very popular topic. I pin food pictures linked back to the recipe site. I get quite a few re-pins of the food images, but oddly enough not many click throughs to the recipes.
Haven't been able to figure out why people would be interested in re-pinning pictures of food if they weren't interested in the recipes. I'd think there'd be an almost 1:1 correspondence, 'Hey I like that food, I want the recipe', but hasn't worked out like that - puzzling.

Have used it for a couple of other sites, particularly graphic t-shirts, but haven't been dong it long enough with those sites to get enough followers to really get a good feel for the results yet.

 

hey its good site, thanks for sharing, I was not knowing this site..will work on it & let you know its review's..

 

I am also eager to know about this how Pinterest can be used as a good marketing source ?

 

Pinterest is great at the moment for affiliates as it allows you to pin screenshots of your product up there which can maximize conversions on your website or on the companies site.

 

Yesterday, I just attended a webinar with Melanie Duncan about Pinterest. Very nice webinar. Adding my knowledge on how to market my business with Pinterest.

 

yeah i agree i get very good result from pinterst.

 

80% of my site is not coming to pinterest, it says u dont have image , now how can i tell them that their are always 4-8 images per page

 

Thanks for all the feedback everyone!

 

It is good for marketing an actual real product. But as far as marketing the typical crap an internet marketer sells (ebooks, get rich quick, scams, etc) Pinterest will delete your postings. And if you repeat them, they just delete you.

 

I've actually seen a lot more consumer-based affiliate offers recently that are product based. Just wondering if anyone's having success marketing those. Promoting some of the more traditional affiliate products on Pinterest would be a huge waste of resources.

 

Pinterest is great platform for e-commerce.

 

Pinterest is useful for internet marketing but so far, I can only rate it with an average grade. So far, that is. I still find a lot of traditional SEO strategies to work. I don't doubt that one day the owners of Pinterest would also make and offer some services that would further help internet marketers with their online businesses including traffic generators for people like us who somewhat rely on them. With all the traffic audiences that they're getting, I doubt that they'll only stick to pictures and those stuffs.

 

The key to pinterest is realizing that the majority of their users are Females in their mid 20's. If you market to this group of people and work on building a following, then your chances of success will go up.

 

Yes,Pinterest is the good for sharing images & links..
Through Pinterest we can get Good results..
