Editor's Notes
- #3 Use the hashtag #PortentU for any questions during the webinar. @Portent will be answering questions throughout and after the presentation.
- #6 Two ways to add a pin: Pin something from the internet or upload an image from your computer.
- #10 Users are more likely to follow boards compared to people because boards tend to share a common theme
- #11 It ’s a bitter sweet moment. Everything looks amazing, but you have no idea what the heck is going on.
- #15 It ’s a bitter sweet moment. Everything looks amazing, but you have no idea what the heck is going on.
- #16 20 million unique visitors. That’s million… with a “B” (that’s supposed to be a joke)
- #17 Most search traffic comes from organic Google search (46.8%). Pinterest now beats Bing, StumbleUpon, Google referral sites like Google News & Twitter. Beats Google+, LinkedIn & YouTube combined. Stats presented by Shareaholic on TechCrunch.
- #18 Simply, Pinterest refers the most profitable buying traffic. Pinners have a high buying power, they spend more and they buy more often compared to other social networks.
- #19 Zappos makes so much money from Pinterest referrals, they’ve set up an app called PinPointing. This site will allow Zappos customers get product suggestions based on Pinterest activity. Story broke on Aug. 29.
- #20 It ’s a bitter sweet moment. Everything looks amazing, but you have no idea what the heck is going on.
- #21 The top 8 pinners on Pinterest as ranked by followers on repinly.com. These folks are outliers because they all started early in Pinterest ’s development and they were able to persuade users to follow their profile instead of specific boards, which is far more typical in the social network. This might correlate with the subjects and styles of boards in their profile.
- #22 The majority of top pinners describe themselves as graphic designers and social media experts. This is unique because they have an eye for style and they have an opportunity to share content they create, which is far more valuable than sharing someone else ’s content.
- #23 Top pinners pin a lot. Average amount of pins 7,111. Surprisingly, they don ’t follow many people. Average pinners only follow 167.
- #24 You have to be active if you want to be a popular pinner.
- #25 It ’s a bitter sweet moment. Everything looks amazing, but you have no idea what the heck is going on.
- #26 The more often you pin, the more chances you have to be seen by your followers.
- #27 This is something I stole from Ian ’s social media webinar. It works for just about any social media updating process: http://www.slideshare.net/wrttnwrd/portent-webinar-7-your-daily-social-media-routine
- #29 Drag the Pin It button into your bookmarks (works best with Chrome and Firefox).
- #30 When the button is in your browser, click it.
- #31 After you click the pin it button, it will pull all the pinnable images on the page.
- #32 Create special content for Pinterest. When you own the content, you’re more likely to receive the majority of repins and likes for the content.
- #33 Bryden is going to tweet this article out on @Portent if you want to read it
- #34 Kate Spade New York did very well at Pinterest in the beginning because they pinned interesting images that stayed within a theme of some of their products.
- #35 You’re more likely to receive repins when you have longer descriptions because your description can add to the user experience and it will help index your pin in the Pinterest major categories.
- #37 If you ’re running a smaller business, it’s very common to add an email address to the “about” section. For your profile image, optimize it for a 27px X 27px picture (really small) – that means not a lot of text. Don’t link Facebook to the page because Pinterest only connects to profiles, not pages. Add Twitter. Don’t hide Pinterest from search engines. We want them to find you.
- #38 Add a fun and descriptive title. For the board description, add a 200 character, keyword rich paragraph (we added the Twitter handles for the curators, but it ’s very common for people to add email addresses). Assigning a category is vital now that Pinterest separates pins into categories on the home page. Assigning additional people to pin will help share the workload of the board across multiple accounts.
- #39 Add a relevant category and a 200 word description with hashtags and profile tags if needed.
- #41 All pins with a money symbol ($) will add a price marker to the pin. This can help you pin get categorized in the Pinterest gifts category.
- #42 Liking and commenting are great ways to build interactions and stay social on the social network. Like items that you find interesting, but don’t have a designated pin board. Comment when you want to share an idea or tag another Pinterest user so they see the pin too.
- #45 Pinterest hashtags follow many of the same rules as Twitter hashtags
- #46 All hashtags become links to a Pinterest search for that term
- #47 My #webinar hashtag generated a search for all pins with the word “webinar” in the description
- #48 Hashtags also help Pinterest to categorize new pins in categories, which can help expose your pin to a wider audience.
- #49 If you repin an image and add a hashtag, it doesn ’t optimize the pin.
- #50 Repinned images won ’t display in search because the pin has already been indexed. Also, Intelligent Designs says you have to wait up to 4-5 hours to see your pin in search.
- #52 One click to follow buttons are awesome because they allow users to follow a page without leaving your site.
- #53 Add the pin it button on blog or product pages to increase sharing and to create a better user experience.
- #56 Pinerly is good, but it only works if you upload all of your pins through their tool, which takes away from simplicity of Pinterest. Also, Pinerly allows you to attribute any URL to a pin, which can create spam. Kitten pictures could lead to anything.
- #57 Tool allows you to add domains and subdomains, but not subfolders. When we tried it, the tracking wasn’t so instant.
- #58 So far my favorite tool because it’s the most simplistic tool to schedule updates that I’ve seen and it comes with a bookmarket. It does have the same spam potential from Pinerly.
- #59 When your mom asks how to make the picture with the words on it, you will now send her to PicMonkey.
- #61 Mornings and non-working hours are best.
- #62 Don ’t pin too many things at once. Pinterest blocks spam by only allowing pins to make the category boards ever few hours (some say Pinterest waits one hour, but it’s not an exact science yet). To be on the safe site, wait one to three hours when adding a pin into a category.
- #63 Images from imgur don ’t make the popular category pages. The best guess is that they want to be different from Reddit, but no one knows for sure.
- #65 We’ve worked with lifestyle brands and this idea would work with clothing, interior design and home décor brands.
- #66 Instructographics are different from infographics because they tell you how to create something.
- #67 While taller images are more important, any pins over 800 px will make the instrotographic unreadable in the Pinterest dashboard
- #68 Pin about popular topics like food recipes, home décor, weddings, inspirational items and quotes.
- #69 Rafflecopter is a simple way to create and track participation in a contest. Use the rafflecopter widget on your website or Facebook.
- #70 Example of rafflecopter widget in a Facebook application.
- #72 A few pieces of the puzzle were displayed as pins. Users were then asked to find the missing images throughout the website. This incentivized users to explore parts of a website that they might not normally see. We work with a lifestyle brand that asked users to make a specific board and list their five favorite products. It’s also a great opportunity to include hashtags in the promotion.
