The problem

Most brands treat Pinterest like Instagram, and it isn't

Pinterest functions as a visual search engine, not a social feed — content posted without keyword-optimized descriptions and board structure gets buried the same way an unoptimized webpage gets buried in Google. Brands that post occasionally without an SEO mindset behind it rarely see the platform’s real potential.

Unlike most social platforms, Pinterest content has a long tail — a well-optimized pin can keep driving traffic for months, which means the upfront optimization work pays off repeatedly instead of disappearing after a day or two in the feed.

How we do it

Optimized, produced, scaled

01

Research Pinterest search behavior

Keyword research grounded in how people actually search on Pinterest, since it behaves like a search engine.

02

Structure boards & rich pins

Boards organized around real search terms, with rich pins configured to pull accurate, live product data.

03

Produce high-performing pins

Image and video pins designed specifically for Pinterest’s format and audience, not repurposed from other platforms.

04

Track & scale

Traffic and conversion tracked, with strategy adjusted toward what’s genuinely compounding over time.

Tools we use

Pinterest Business Hub · Pinterest Trends & keyword tools · Pinterest Tag · Canva / video editing tools

Timeline: account setup and initial board/pin optimization is typically complete within 1–2 weeks; because Pinterest content compounds over time, meaningful traffic growth usually builds over the following months rather than showing immediate spikes.

Why BetterSell

Pinterest treated as search, not social

SEO mindset, not social mindset. Boards and pins are optimized for Pinterest’s search behavior, not treated like Instagram posts.

Built for longevity. Pins are designed to keep performing for months, compounding traffic rather than disappearing quickly.

Rich pins configured properly. Live product data stays accurate, avoiding the mismatch that erodes buyer trust.

High-intent traffic, captured deliberately. Content is built to reach users actively planning a purchase, not just browsing.

High-intent traffic still needs a landing page built to convert it

Pinterest sends genuinely high-intent shoppers — but a fast, well-structured landing page is what actually turns that click into a sale once they arrive.

Recent results

What this looks like in practice

Traffic, compounding month over month

Before: A brand had a Pinterest account with minimal activity and no meaningful traffic contribution to the store.

Diagnosis: Boards had generic names and pins had never been optimized with keywords, leaving the account essentially invisible to Pinterest search.

Fix: Rebuilt board structure and pin descriptions around real Pinterest keyword research, alongside a consistent new pin production cadence.

Result: Traffic from Pinterest grew steadily month over month, with older pins continuing to drive visits well after they were originally posted.

Rich pins, corrected for accuracy

Before: Product pins were showing outdated pricing, creating a mismatch between what Pinterest displayed and the actual store.

Diagnosis: Rich pins had been set up initially but never properly connected to sync with live product data.

Fix: Reconfigured rich pin settings to pull accurate, live pricing and availability directly from the store.

Result: Pin data stayed accurate going forward, removing a source of buyer confusion and lost trust at the click-through stage.

Video pins, outperforming static images

Before: A brand’s Pinterest strategy relied entirely on static images, missing the strong performance video pins tend to get on the platform.

Diagnosis: No video content had been produced specifically for Pinterest, since the brand’s existing video assets were formatted for other platforms.

Fix: Produced a set of Pinterest-native video pins optimized for the platform’s format and typical viewing behavior.

Result: Video pins outperformed the existing static image pins on engagement, becoming a larger part of the ongoing content mix.
