Editor's Notes
- Visual bookmarking built on source pages, which means your web content may be pinned, linking users back to your website.Delicious – but VISUALLY BASED!
- FOR EXAMPLE:In the near future, we’ll launch the first board managed by HHS’s Digital Communications Division. The board will feature content from FoodSafety.gov. We will showcase tips on food preparation and how to prevent food from spoiling during and after storms or natural disasters.
- How to embed a Pinterest board on your website: http://blog.hubspot.com/how-to-embed-pinterest-boards-on-your-website-quick-tip Importance of cross-promotion
- LEVERAGE WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE!
- Calling attention to the plight of children in Third World countries, Weapon 7 has created a Pinterest board for UNICEF that highlights the items the world's poorest children around the world need. The Pinterest board was created using the profile of Ami Musa, a real 13-year-old girl living in Sierra Leone but the focus of the effort is to call attention to children like Ami all over the globe.All of the pins lead to a UNICEF site on which people can make donations towards helping these children.
- Two reasons: The audience and the virality factor. The primary users of Pinterest are women, ages 25-45 – for most health care organizations this is a primary target audience. Here’s your opportunity to talk and share with them. The primary user behavior on Pinterest is “repinning.” In fact, 80 percent of pins are repins; that is, most of the content shared on Pinterest is curated versus created content – it is simply the individual browsing through their Pinterest feed and “repinning” or “liking” the content they want to collect for themselves.
