Pinterest SEMarketing Tips
• Make sure you feature your business name on your profile
for maximum exposure. Use your business name as your
username, or change your profile name to your business
name after your profile is set up.
• Add a paragraph about who you are and what you’re
interested in to the “About” section on your Pinterest
profile. It will show up right under your photo, and will be
one way that users can find out more about you.
• Connect your account with your Facebook and Twitter
accounts. Not only will it help you gain followers, but
making this connection adds social media icons under your
profile picture that link to your Facebook and Twitter
profiles.
• Don’t forget to add your website URL in your profile, too!

Visual Sharing Addiction
• Reality television, lifestyle and cooking shows have taken
food to new levels of visual and visceral appeal and taking
photos of food and sharing them on Facebook or
Instagram seems to becoming a standard activity these
days.
• Generation X and Y would rather watch a video or an
infographic in small snack size bites of information than
read a paragraph of text.
