The popularity of Pinterest as a social media platform is undeniable, and the traffic numbers represent a huge opportunity for your business and your clients. What should your first move be? How do you get started? It’s easy…just dive right in and create an account.

I have heard some in the industry say that Pinterest is not right for their business, that they do not use a lot of images or graphics.  The truth is that if your website has content at all, then there is way to express that content on Pinterest.  People were once afraid of Facebook and Twitter also, but now those platforms are a must for businesses.

Once you have signed up for an account take the time to immerse yourself in this new world and you will soon see how users can spend so much time here. Don’t feel rushed to add all your content at once. You can add a little bit at first, but be sure to take the time to optimize it (this will be discussed in future blogs). One of the first things you will notice about Pinterest is that it is brand friendly. Your business name is more than likely available as a user name and you can name your boards after whatever you would like (hint: keywords).

One of the easiest ways to get going is to do a search for your topics, your keywords and start following and repining the content that is similar to yours. If you dedicate time to Pinterest each day your boards will start to be noticed and pinners (what users are called) will start to follow you, repin your content, click on your links that you have included in your pins (hint: optimization) and visit your site.

It is not quite that easy, but still very simple to dive in and get started. There are a lot of useful topics regarding Pinterest for business from optimizing your boards to Pinterest’s off the page uses. Go forth and become a pinner and visit us at http://pinterest.com/MagicLogix/.
