Pinterest, Marketing and Blogging, oh my!



Welcome to all my Gifted ones!

I want to let you guys know what I've been up to this week. I have 6 different Pinterest accounts! Whew! I know! 3 of them, I am actively working on. One does well without me touching it for months (has over 90,000 page views per month) and 2 im not ready to work on just yet. So there's always a Pinterest tab open for me.

I mainly am using them to gain traffic to my e-commerce stores.  Now, that I have started to revamp this blog, I will start to drive traffic to it by Pinterest as well.

So with my 3 Pinterest accounts...
1) Is only for Amazon affiliate products. I strictly pin products to this page. Right now it has about 3300 average monthly views. I think that is not bad, because of the 3 accounts, this is the one I use the least.  I am only on 1 group board for this account right now.

2) Is for my travel e-commerce store. I have about 2400 average monthly views on it. I haven't done a whole lot on this Pinterest page, because I am still working on the e-commerce site adding products etc.  I have 17 group boards for this account. 189 followers.

3) Is my baby. This is my jewelry e-commerce store.  I have about 33,800 monthly views on it. 9,721 followers. I have 32 group boards for this account.

My goal for all 3 of these accounts is to join 50 group boards each. Everyday, I am requesting to join about 10 boards for each account.  After I reach 50 groups then my next goals will be 75 and 100.
I really believe in the ability of working group boards. When I calculate the aggregate of members for each group board and the potential reach of each of my pins... I get excited, lol. Don't judge me! lol

However, I wonder how much reach each pin really has for the group boards. As I continue to join more and more groups and follow more people, I still really only notice things that I have searched for in my feed. I don't really see things that people have pinned into the groups Im in... Things that make you go hmmm.

I still have not taken the time to join Tailwind or add my other boards to Board Booster. (I did the trial for board booster for the jewelry store - take a look at the results here)  However, yesterday, I did set up the 2 e-commerce stores to have their pins automatically repinned to my own boards (no group boards) using my follow-liker software.  So we will see how that does.

I also joined shopstyle but I have not posted any affiliate links for them yet.

As far as manually pinning - I've been trying to pin 2-3 times a day. So I will pin 1 or 2 items to all of my group boards for jewelry store. I have not started manually pinning to group boards for the travel store... hence the lower numbers

Blogging - I'm revamping my blog! (its still under construction) My goal is to do 2-3 blogs a week at least. I want to start earning affiliate income from my blogs. Hopefully, I will have my very first income report come December 1st.

For Marketing - check out my latest blog article regarding my affiliate marketing journey.

So what are my goals for the next week:
1) Get the jewelry store up to 50 group boards
2) Get the travel store up to 30 group boards
3) Pin at least 30 more products to my Amazon affiliate page.

What are your goals for the next week? Do you have any suggestions for me and my pinterest accounts?  Chime in below. Don't be a stranger.
