Creator hustles EP. 4

What’s up, everyone…

I promised that if I hit 50 likes on my latest post on X I would give you some Pinterest tips I haven’t mentioned yet.

If you’re new to the newsletter, my pinterest work flow is using Chat GPT for short blog posts.. Midjourney for the images… Then i use Pin Generator to schedule out all the pins.

I currently have over 4,670 pins scheduled, running until Nov 2024th.. Going to keep extending that date as long as possible.

I am pinning 35 pins per day and the highest I think I’ll ever go is 40. ( I don’t want to trigger spam and get all my traffic taken away). Slow and steady wins the race.

Here are a couple of tips if you’re looking to increase your clicks from Pinterest:

1. You can get all the keywords you need via Google. All you have to do is google search the term site:pinterest.com keyword

replace the term keyword with a popular keyword in your niche. For example, if you’re in the beauty niche you can do hairstyles.

So it would look like this “site:pinterest.com women’s hairstyles”. It will then give you all the boards that are indexed on Google for womens hairstyles. Here are some of the results we got:

Best Hairstyles For Women Over 50 To Look Younger

• Best short Hairstyles For Round Faces

• Best Hairstyles For Women Over 70

• Hottest Bob Hairstyles

• Hairstyles For Women In Their 30’s

This is just the beginning of the list.. There are pages and pages of keyword ideas you could use.

All you have to do is copy each idea and make them a keyword on your list.

2. Use Amazon image search to increase affiliate revenue. If you have products in your images. All you have to do is go to Amazon search and hit the image option. Take a picture of the picture that will soon be a pin. It will find similar products on Amazon and all you have to do is add an affiliate link to the blog post. Now you’re not only getting Ad money, but also affiliate money. Even if the image is AI it will find similar images.

3. Pinterest is ordered by the BEST content, or what Pinterest thinks is best. So when you’re about to make some pins or choose a template using Pin Generator, type in the keyword first and choose a pin design that suits what Pinterest likes.

4. Don’t start getting traffic until you have a newsletter pop-up on your site.. Pinterest traffic isn’t guaranteed forever.. you need to make sure you’re collecting as many emails as possible .. (i know it’s not Pinterest related, but it’s important).

5. Put your head down and work.. I create 200 pins and schedule them almost every day… The work is going to give you the results.
