$XX to $X,XXX per month [Amazon + Pinterest]
The Amazon+Pinterest method has been known for quite a while.
However in this thread we are going to look into some interesting spins & tricks to increase traffic & earnings.
If you aren't making any money online or are trying to bank on Pinterest: take your time to read this thread OVER and OVER. Also read all the replies in this thread before posting.
Requirements
Domain + hosting ( max 10$/ mo) [optional]
Pinterest accounts (free)
Amazon affiliates account (free)
The Website
(Having a website from the very start is optional, it would be wiser to first build your Pinterest)
Invest your time (1-2 days) to make a nice looking e-commerce Wordpress platform.
You can quickly photoshop a "BUY" button and link that to Amazon products.
The Setup
- Pinterest allows 2-3 active accounts per IP address. Which is enough for a starter.
- Make 3 Gmail accounts and create a new Pinterest account (make one account per day, have a delay). Don't forget to email verify them.
- RESPECT your Pinterest accounts. Don't go fake and spam-looking. Use some legit pictures and descriptions, don't go for cheap & low quality - setups.
-Make 5 - 15 boards (use unique & creative names for each). Look what other people use for their boardnames and just copy-edit-paste it.
- (optional) Use my personal Pinterest Bot IMT - PinBot Premium 2.0
Before continueing to the method, you should have ONE account ready to Rock'n'Roll.
Follow THE EXACT steps as I explain in this thread and I guarantee you traffic your very first days!
The 5-Step-Method- Daily: Pin 20-30 unique images (25% will include website URL ; another 25% will be watermarked with website URL)
- Daily: Re-pin 20-30 images. (edit the description: if it promotes another website delete the url, keep this one clean)
- Daily: Comment on 20-30 pins
- Daily: Like 20-30 pins
- Daily: Follow 30-100 users
If you're thinking. "I already know these steps" and then you start saying "BUT... I'm still not earning, HELP ME".
Look, you have to do these steps with RESPECT and FOCUS. If you're not gaining popularity then you are simply doing something wrong: maybe your niche isn't hot&tasty.
Twists
Focus on a Niche: don't mix women's clothing, motorcycles and woodcrafting, seriously. If you are more comfortable in the women's niche then do nails, hair, jewelry, etc.
Focus on female niches: Pinterest is a women's site after all.
When commenting on pins: "kiss their butts"; if you give respect then you get it back tenfold, but, if you try to take respect you'll only lose more.
Pinterest is a semi-algorithm: you can get flagged by Pinterest for obvious botting-behavior or flagged by users for spam/trash behavior. If you are going to use software or scripts then KEEP IT REAL.
The desire to click: to get visitors to your site you need to have a niche on which people are looking to BUY something. No one is going to buy cars on Pinterest, don't bother pinning cars or travel pictures. These can be good to gain followers but conversion not so.
Authority: Have a "Pin" button on your website and pin Images directly from your blogs for cooler pins.
No website? No worries!: Amazon affiliates allows you to create "aStores" where you can list certain categories and let Amazon host it. I do STRONGLY recommend to use your own domain and just inserting an iframe to the aStore or doing a 301 to the aStore. That way you can use a clean & beautiful domain on Pinterest.
Are you not from USA? Make sure to be active when US-people are active most (between 6 and 10 PM). If this isn't possible for you then get a VPS or let your laptop run on scheduled mode.
Create your own Group Boards: start inviting regular pinners into your own boards.
Don't join spammy Group Boards: we often get invited to join group boards, most are spammed and not moderated, STAY AWAY FROM THESE!
Design your own algorithms:
Starting out? -> search for boards and follow niche related BOARDS (not users !!!) -> repin good pins + comment on these + like some of them.
Follow all your followers back.
Follow the followers of your followers.
Repin pins from boards who your followers are following and repinning from. (They will repin what they like, and they like what they follow, duh!)
