Don't make these 10 Pinterest Mistakes! Read now to see what you can do!
1) Not everything should be pinned.
Do Pin:favorite recipes, fashion tips, DIY projects, photographs
Don't Pin: car rides to grandmas, you doing a workout
2) Using Poor Captions
Make sure you are often updating your captions when you repin a picture. Often people have the original captions on the pictures which can be confusing depend on the picture being pinned. To make sure the pictures stay current keep the captions new and fresh.
3) Not Using Descriptive Text
Take the time, when you are editing your photos, to make sure at least one photo has attractive and descriptive text on the photo. Keep consistent designs and don't use crazy fonts. Use fonts that are easy to read and pleasing to the eye.
4) Not having a Business Account!
If you get a business account on Pinterest, you will have access to analytics which will help you refine your goals and guide your use which can help you expand your reach.
5) Not Using Rich Pins
When you use Rich Pins you can see the ingredients in their recipes at a glance.
6) Not Being Social
Don't just share your own content. Go beyond just that and interact with others especially those who pin your content.
7) Mass Pinning
Rather than pinning many times at once, space it out and pin at various times during the day. This will make sure your viewers don't get too overwhelmed and then unfollow you.
8) Not Making Your Photos Easy to Pin
Make sure your photos are easy to be shared! A the minimum, you should have a Pin button for each post you create! If you want to be extra successful, have a Pin button on every image that you would like to have shared.
9) Horrible Pictures
Don't post pictures that aren't "pinnable". Pictures that are pinnable are pictures that others would enjoy and want to see as well. If others can enjoy your photo they will repin it and "like" it rather than just letting it sit there. Make sure the pictures are clear and easy to see as well.
10) Not Joining Group Boards
If you join and pin to a group board you can get access to thousands of other people! Be sure to check stats for the boards you want to join, so you can make sure that the members are engaged!
