Do you want a FREE traffic source that will give you a BREAK from Google's hammering algorithm updates? I get on average about 85k/mo outbound clicks from Pinterest to my website. Just 8 simple steps!
So the first thing you need to do to get Pinterest traffic is

Optimize your Website for this platform!

When you open your website on a mobile device, CAN you Save an image from it on Pinterest? I started with this point because it is REALLY important. So pause the video if you need to, and go check your site on your phone NOW. Then let me know in the comments if you managed to save a pin from your site in a couple of clicks!

If not, you will hardly get a lot of Pinterest traffic. Why? Well, take a peek at my Pinterest analytics.
See, for a lot of my top-performing pins the source is called Others, they are not my pins.
I have a pretty established Pinterest account that gets about 10 Million monthly viewers.

They are pins that have organically found their way from your site into Pinterest through the Saves made by Other users.
My idea is that these pins hold a lot more weight in the algorithm than the pins that YOU saved from your profile. It is a strong engagement signal or a domain quality signal for Pinterest.
So, what's the takeaway here? Do ALL that you've gotta do to get more of these "Other" pins — they could be the secret sauce to unlocking your Pinterest growth.
