1. Create your Pinterest business account
To create a free Pinterest business account, go to business.pinterest.com.
(You can also convert your Pinterest personal account to a business
account).
Choose a business category, enter your business name and website URL.
Filling out the ‘’About” section of your profile is key. Make it inspiring and
thoughtful. Use keywords your ideal customer would use in a search. For
example: Marin County native plant landscaping or native plant landscaper
in Marin; or Mac repair in Grand Haven, PC repair in Grand Haven, etc.
Now, upload your logo or a pic of yourself. For ideal results, use a square
image that’s at least 165x165 pixels.
Next, verify your website so that people see the full URL on your profile and
in search results.
When you log into your account for the first time, you’ll be asked to choose
ive boards to follow. Choose categories and boards that relate to your
business and interests. These are fellow pinners and potential followers.
It’s all about building your Pinterest tribe—and your business.
