\nPinterest is the latest social “buzz” site of the moment, stacking up numbers which
\nwould even make Google blush. This “picture” bookmarking site has only been around

growing site in history.<\/p>\n

It took Pinterest only 9 months to go from 50,000 to 17,000,000 users. It is increasing at
\n40% each month and is on track to reach 180 million users by the end of this year.<\/p>\n

Impressive numbers indeed, but for webmasters and online marketers, that’s not really
\nthe important factor concerning Pinterest. What really has marketers buzzing is Pinterest’s
\nreferral numbers.<\/p>\n

Members or users of Pinterest “click thru to your site”<\/b> more often than users of Facebook,
\nTwitter, Stumbleupon… in other words Pinterest has become a valuable source of free
\ntargeted traffic on the web. More importantly, because your pins can get re-pinned over and
\nover again, your content lasts a long time and has legs.<\/p>\n

Many experts compare this traffic to YouTube content which can deliver traffic to your
\nsite for years<\/b>.<\/p>\n

That’s what really has online marketers excited about this new picture sharing site, use it
\nproperly and Pinterest can deliver targeted prospects for your business for years into the
\nfuture. It is also great for building a community of customers or interested parties, ready
\nfor your latest offering.<\/p>\n

Of course, like any online site or platform, Pinterest has to be used in the right manner,
\nif you plan on marketing your business or site on it. If you just figure on signing up for
\nPinterest, pinning a few images and then wait for the referral traffic to flood your site –
\nwell, you might hit it lucky but like all these social programs, you have to prime the pump.<\/p>\n

One of the best resources or experts on Pinterest (which I have found) is Jason Miles –
\nVice President for Advancement at Northwest University. He runs a very informative site called http:\/\/marketingonpinterest.com<\/a><\/p>\n

But the real reason I pay special attention to what Jason has to say – his wife runs a Doll’s Clothing\/Pattern site on
\nthe web! They have first-hand experience of how Pinterest has helped their niche business and have figured out ways to
\ntake full advantage of Pinterest from an online marketing perspective.<\/p>\n

As a given rule, I find it is these “hands-on” individuals who supply the best information, regardless of the program
\nor platform. The same applies here – they have been there, done that and give us the best nuggets of information which
\nbring in the traffic and sales.<\/p>\n

So if you’re wondering how you can use Pinterest for your business or site, watch the following video carefully and
\ntake notes. This video is called “Pinterest Marketing for Niche Businesses” and was done via Ken Evoy’s SBI SiteBuildIt Review<\/a> program.
\nIt will give you valuable information on how to use Pinterest to your advantage and help you really discover what
\nall the fuss is about.<\/p>\n

– Always create an Attractive\/Informative\/Interesting image for each
\npiece of content you have on the web. Make these images your “pre-selling” tools
\nwhich will get re-pinned and bring targeted traffic back to your site or business.<\/p>\n

– Always remember it’s about building online communities and joining those
\ncommunities together. Fully integrate your Pinterest followers with your
\nTwitter, Facebook… followers.<\/p>\n

– Always make sure you have your images fully optimized with your
\ninformation – product name, product description… and of course,
\na link back to your site.<\/p>\n
