There’s hardly anyone left in the world
of blogging who is not aware of Pinterest. However, what some people do not
know is the fact that Pinterest is not only meant for pinning your products,
rather it also helps in driving more traffic toward your blog / website. Over
time, Pinterest is seen to be driving in more traffic as compared to all the
other prominent social networking websites. Looking at the severity of its
importance, we are bringing to you few effective ways of driving traffic
towards your blog via Pinterest.
Here are a few quick tips, which you
must look into Pinterest to Drive Traffic to Your Blog
1-Emphasis on trending and lifestyle
topics
Who does not like to read hot and
trending articles? It is a known fact that people always prefer to spend their
time on the latest happening and events. This will surely get you many
followers along with a long array of re-pins, likes and comments. Movies,
social affairs or anything latest will do the best for you.
We are part of an ever-growing society
and people need to be kept familiar with their surroundings. Make your blog a
mixture of everyday tips, household products, images, videos and you are done.
The number of clicks that you will receive through these simple yet useful
posts will be surely amazing.
2-Go for a personalized blog board
Do not let your blog put your readers in
hocus- pocus. Always make it a point to arrange your blog in a systematic
manner. This will definitely make it easier for your followers to find your
latest pins and will save their time as well.
Also, remember to add good keywords in
the title of your posts. This way they will find high page ranking in all the
major search engines. Isn’t it great to have a well-managed blog as well as a
good ranking all in a single go?
3-Combine text with images
No one likes to read a long and boring
post. Make your posts interesting by including as many catchy pictures as
possible. Alternatively, to make it more appealing, you can also add text onto
the pictures. Images catch people’s attention and it compels them to click on
the link to know more about your pin. For this purpose, use large and
attractive fonts on your image while pinning them on Pinterest. This is due to
the reason that a lot of people access Pinterest through their mobile phones
and small font will not be visible to them.
4-Show the magic of URL description
While pinning images or posts on
Pinterest, always add the URL of your blog in the description. In case you are
repining, do the same. Use the URL of your blog or website, which will have the
similar posts as that on Pinterest. Also, do not use shortened URLs for this
purpose. When people will re-pin your post, they will be redirected to your
blog automatically.
5-A contest for your followers
Interact with your audience as much as
possible. An easy way for this is by running a contest on your blog. All you
need to do is pin that contest on Pinterest. This will work as a promotional
strategy for your blog/ website by driving in more people via Pinterest.
The best part is that people actually
spend a lot of their time on such contests and eventually the traffic towards
your blog increases.
6-How about adding a “pin it” button?
Not having a visible, “pin it” button
for your post is like not having “tweet button” on Twitter. Include a “pin it”
button below each post of yours. This will make it easier for your followers to
re-pin your posts.
7-Add author bio
The key to having tones of followers is
to have a great interactive relationship with them. The more people know about
you, the better. Also let them know about the people behind your amazing posts.
Make a separate pin board featuring all
your authors, including brief introduction about them. This will make people
feel more connected with you as well as your blog.
At the end
It’s not actually tough to use social
medias to increase blog readers but the fact is that many of us are not trying
to explore them. Just try it and you’ll fall in love with the result you are going
to get with Pinterest... I hope you enjoyed the topic.
