Generating Traffic to Your Pinterest Boards One of the quickest ways to start driving traffic to your Pinterest boards is by following the leader. This concept is true for Twitter: If you follow the high profile person in your niche, then you are more likely to generate more followers for yourself. Doing this also gives you the opportunity to see how this person is marketing their business. Who said spying on the competition isn’t a good thing! The biggest mistake you can make on your Pinterest boards is to only promote yourself. While there is nothing wrong about boasting about a new achievement or your first Kindle book, don’t center everything around your business. Always remember that the key to social media is sharing, and it is no different with Pinterest. If you share and re-pin other people’s content, you are more likely to see more traffic back to your site in the end. It is possible to create backlinks to your site through your boards. For example, you can post an image of an affiliate product with your link on it. Then write a review of this product and link to that. When you write the review article, include several photos for Pinterest users. This way you can get different images pinned more times. Posting popular images could possibly result in a number of backlinks very quickly. Leave detailed comments on images and videos that you like and re-pin them. By taking the time to write a comment, you are creating a name for yourself. Also, you are being social and sharing content, which is what Pinterest wants you to do. Writing quality comments will get you noticed and will get your comment re-pinned, as well as creating more traffic. All of these things may sound small and won’t take that long to do, but the results could be huge. Imagine if your comment went viral; think of all the traffic your site could see! The potential is there. You just need to tap into it. You can drive more traffic to your blog simply by adding more images. By having more than one image, or by including a video, you are giving people more options of what to pin. This results in more pins for your blog. Don’t forget to include a ‘Pin Me’ button on your blog, ideally below each image. Make it easy for people to share, and they will simply click without thinking so helping to generate more traffic for you. Choose the Right Local Internet Marketing Firm for Your Business, Then Get The Most From Them Transforming your business into an online giant is not particularly hard. In fact there are literally thousands of companies out there to help you set up the perfect internet marketing campaign. Unfortunately that is part of the problem. It can be daunting and confusing to try and find the right company to work with and one you can trust to give you the results you are looking for. It is very disheartening to see small companies trying to make their mark online, only to throw their hands in the air and give up because the whole prospect of getting started and choosing the right company is too confusing. But having an online presence is so important for your business, so here are some tips that will help you to find YOUR ethical, hardworking and successful Internet Marketing partner. Be Wary Of Companies Promising Quick Results SEO is a slow but very worthwhile process. (Search Engine Optimization....it helps you get found in the search engines) Although we have seen certain websites go from page 20 to page one in just a few weeks this is very much the exception and not the rule. Any company that promises you very quick results is either being dishonest or will participate in potentially damaging practices that will very likely get your website lowered or completely removed from key search engine rankings altogether. No company can ever tell you exactly when your site will feature prominently in the search engines as it depends on your business and the relative competition within it. However, the right company will do all the groundwork and hard work required to give you a solid and prominent ranking. The results you will receive because of all of the extra traffic and customers will make it all worthwhile. Focus On Small and Mid-Size Companies Larger SEO companies may look incredibly impressive, but working with a smaller SEO firm means that you are more likely to work directly with the experienced SEO strategist who is customizing your SEO campaign around your specific needs and goals. It is reassuring to have the personal touch from a smaller independent company who really cares about your business and with whom you can build a rock solid business relationship.
