Can you earn money on Pinterest?
Basically one of the easiest ways is to use what's called Affiliate Marketing!
​
What is Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is basically promoting other people's goods or services and receiving a commission from the sale. This can be a physical product or more usually a digital product.
That’s it in a nutshell.
You can apply to join individual affiliate programs for one company or a network like:
-Awin
-ShareAsale
-Flex offers
-Clickbank

BUT HANDS DOWN TO THIS COURSE WHICH SHOW YOU ALL THE PROCESS OF MAKING SERIOUS MONEY USING PINTEREST UP TO $1,200 MONTHLY JUST PINNING SOME PINS HERE AND THERE AND IT'S REALLY WORTH TO ENROLL!
What is Pinterest
What is Pinterest – if you have never been on the platform I recommend giving it a go it’s very addictive speaking as someone who used it from the get-up and goes.
If you are confusing it with a social network channel then don’t its a search engine like Google so it needs to be treated like one.
Pinterest is a visual search engine that allows an individual to curate their own boards with favorite pins and also collaborate with other users on Group boards.
Pinterest loves NEW content and will focus on this more than anything else in its feed ( not talking about paid ads here ) – so if you have lots of new lovely pins then Pinterest will show you the love back!

Group boards use to be great back in the day to get things to share not so much. They can still be useful especially small tightly niched boards but forget the large boards with lots of members.
How do you use Affiliate marketing on Pinterest to make money on Pinterest?
There are lots of programs you can apply to that allow you to pin on Pinterest. Once you have a group of programs that you have joined I suggest you make a list of the ones your in along with the tracking links so you can keep them all in one place which makes it a lot easier to add links to new pins.
Basically, you make Pins using either the tools listed below or some programs provide images or you can save images from their website to use when you make up your winning pin. You then add your personal tracking link and hey presto when someone clicks on the pin and is forwarded to the website and buys the Pin image item you get a commission it can be as little as 5% or as much as 40% it just depends on what it is you are trying to sell.

How to set up your Pinterest Business Account
When you first set up your account you have an option to transfer it to a Business account. I would suggest you do this so that you can get your Pinterest Analytics up and running this will let you see how the pins you are using are doing.
You next need to verify your website for Pinterest this can be a tricky step have a look at related posts below for help with setting up your account and also verify your website.
Next, you need to enable rich pins for your site.
What exactly are RICH PINS?
​
​Rich pins are pins that will display your website details and icon below them when you have a pinnable image available this will mean you are readily accessible to people looking for the pin source – in other words, YOU.

How to set your Pinterest Boards
When you set up your Pinterest Boards you need to make sure you are using great keyworded boards and board names.
Joining Group Boards
There are a few ways to find group boards to join my favorite way would be to find the bloggers and influencers you follow in your niche and see which boards they join.
Fewer followers and great keyworded group boards are the best ones
So instead of Most popular blog posts on the Pinterest group board go with How to make a money group board.
When you are first starting out try and join as many group boards as possible and either archive or leave the ones that aren’t performing.
Pingroupie.com is another source of group boards.
How to do Affiliate Marketing on Pinterest
One of the easiest programs to generate links for Pinterest is using Magiclinks. It’s really easy to use Magiclinks they have lots of different retailers for eg. Norstrund with lots of different categories to create links in.

Create links to categories you have on your Pinterest account.
You will need a minimum of 100 followers to join Magiclinks so get that account set up asap.
Make sure whatever you pin you also have other pins on your account.
This way it doesn’t look spammy so each board should have a wide range of affiliate vs non-affiliate pins.
​
Also, keep your account coherent.
You can also join other affiliate programs.
I would promote for instance my general affiliate marketing pins without going directly to a post.
Rules and Regulations for Affiliate Marketing on Pinterest
It’s super important to disclose you are using an affiliate link on your pins you can do this by adding a #affiliatelink or #afflink or even # this is an affiliate link add to the description.
