Transcripts
Do you want to know how to get your first 1, 000 followers on
Pinterest? Are you struggling to grow your followers on a new
Pinterest account and looking for ways to get new followers
fast? Well, this is the video for you. So, hey there, it's
Nadalie Bardo, your Pinterest Coach here and if you love
Pinterest marketing tips, be sure to hit the thumbs up
button on this video and don't forget to subscribe to my
channel because I love being your Pinterest Coach. Okay,
y'all. You might know that I am close to hitting 70, 000
followers on Pinterest. This is an account that I've had for
five years. So, it's been a bit of time that I've learned a lot
of strategies for gaining new followers and I'm going to be
sharing them with you in this video. This is especially a
strategy that you can start using on a brand-new account
that is going to get you more followers fast but first,
there's two things you need to make sure that you've done
before you start using this strategy and I'm going to show
you exactly what they are. So, the first thing you want to
make sure is that you've quickly optimize your Pinterest
profile. When someone is hitting follow, it is usually
from the profile page. So, make sure you have your profile
photo that you have a banner and that you've also taken the
time to write out a bio. So, say for example, this new
account I created for my Pinterest stuff. I have, hey,
I'm your Pinterest Coach. Here to help you grow your traffic
with Pinterest. Sign up for my free masterclass. So, that is
exactly who I am and how I can help. Another great example is
Kayla from Writing From Nowhere. She's optimized her
profile name, Writing From Nowhere. That's her brand name,
remote work life, and online business tips. She also has a
really great bio. This is so important because remember,
people are hitting follow from your profile page and you also
want to get found in search when someone is searching for
the keywords in your bio or in your profile name. The second
thing you need to ensure is that you have rich pins enabled
on your site. Super easy to do. All you need is a plugin and a
bit of code on your site. I'm going to put a link down below
to where you can get help with that but this is important
because when someone is sharing your pins or when your pin show
up on Pinterest, you want them to see your lovely profile photo
and your profile name right beside it and they want to
click that follow button. So, don't miss out on this extra
bit of advertisement for your profile on all of your pins.
So, make sure you have rich pins enabled. Okay, when you
have those two things done, now you're ready to use this
amazing strategy that just takes a few minutes. This is
what you're going to do and I encourage that you do it from
mobile because it's easier. You're going to want to spend
just five minutes or less every single day engaging on relevant
pins from relevant users. So, this is what I mean. So, say
for example, you're a finance blogger. You're going to
want to find relevant accounts in your niche and engage with
their recent pins. That means you can leave a comment. So,
just leave a comment like, "wow, this is great for saving money"
or you can ask a simple question like, "how would you
recommend getting started?" You wanna start a conversation with
these relevant accounts that are pinning content in your
niche. Of course, if it's a video pin or an idea pin, you
can leave a reaction and a quick comment saying, wow,
cool, this was helpful. You can leave these tiny comments that
are going to start building engagement. You can also do
this with pins that you find on your home feed. So, see right
here, I'm just on my Pinterest account. You can see some
recent pins, you're going to want to click on that pin, go
to the person's profile and ensure that it was a pin that
was recently added. So, from mobile, you're able to see
which boards have had recent pins that were added. So, say
for example, this profile, it has a pin that was recently
pinned to this exact board. So, I'm going to leave a comment.
I'm going to react if it's a video pin or an idea pin. So,
speaking of Pinterest boards, I encourage you to ensure that
you have got a few really great Pinterest boards that are
optimized, they have a cover photo, they have a description,
a really great title, and that you're pinning to those boards
regularly because yes, people can follow your profile but
they can also follow your Pinterest boards. So, be sure
you're not missing out on gaining followers to your
well-optimized boards that can also rank in Google search that
can also show up in search results. So, be sure that
checking all of those boxes. So, just for a few minutes
every day, hop on to the Pinterest app, find a few pins
that are relevant to your niche, comment, leave a few
reactions, start building that engagement. Then, here's the
second part of this strategy. You want to go to the profile
of that relevant and active person in your niche and start
following their followers. You want to make sure that you know
who your competitors are and that you engage with their followers
but here's the thing, you don't want to follow 100 people a
day. Do not do that. You don't want to follow unfollow. Do not
do that. This is not like Instagram where you know,
people are looking at, oh my gosh, they're following more
people that are following them. That doesn't matter on
Pinterest. So, don't unfollow and only follow a handful of
people every day. Don't overdo it. So, if you do too much of
this, you can trigger the Pinterest spam blocker which is
going to be really bad for account. So, you want to make
sure you do this in moderation which is why I encourage you,
only spend 5 minutes doing this each and every day and you will
start to see your follower count go up, up, up, okay? So,
engage and comment on relevant pins for your niche. Sure, you
can sparingly save them but you want to prioritize your own
pins when you're saving pins, okay and here is a third way
that you can get to your first 1, 000 followers in no time
flat. I encourage you to make use of your audience off of the
platform. So, that means, do you have an Email list? Are you
really active on Instagram? Do you have a Facebook page? Do
you have a YouTube channel? You want to encourage your
followers and subscribers and viewers no matter where they
are to engage and follow you on Pinterest. So, it's not as
complicated as it sounds. Sure, if you have an Email list, send
an Email saying, "hey, I'm on Pinterest. I would love your
help if you could follow." You could also do something like a
contest. So you can give away something relevant to a prize
winner who follows you. "So hey I'm holding a one week grow my
Pinterest account contest to one lucky person who follows me
and today is going to win a copy of my amazing course or
they're going to win this Ebook or maybe a copy of your book or
a product." Whatever it is you want to entice them to click
that follow button. You can also do a landing page. So, say
for example, this is what I did with my YouTube channel. I
created a landing page. So, anytime anyone signed up for
anything on my website on my landing page, I encourage them
to click and subscribe to my YouTube channel. I had
previously done this for my Facebook group and this can
work basically when you're trying to grow your followers
and subscribers on any platform. Another thing that
you can use is MiloTree. It is a plugin for WordPress that adds
a pop up or a bar to your site encouraging others to follow.
So, if you have some traffic to your site for just $9 a month,
you can get followers and it might be worth it. You just
want to jump start and get to that first 1, 000. So I
actually encourage you to make use of all three of these
strategies so that you can get the most amount of followers in
a fast amount of time. And of course, a another pro tip is to
create idea pins. If you have the time, idea pins are a great
way for you to grow your followers. Of course, you
want to make sure that your bio is optimized because on that
final slide of an idea pin, they see your bio and are
offered the opportunity to click the follow button. So,
why not make use of this feature? Apparently, I've
gained over 3,000 followers with just the 31 idea pins that I
created last year. So, you can also gain followers by creating
say one fresh idea pin every week and that's another way for
you to grow your followers. You want to also make sure that you
are pinning consistently. Keep pinning. Check your Pinterest
analytics to see what are the types of pins that have high
save counts because here's the thing, if someone is saving
your pins, that means they love your pins and they are most
likely have already clicked that follow button. So, you
want to create even more pins like that so it even more
followers. And of course, you want to check your engagement
tab of your profile. You might be getting comments. So, be
sure to also reply to those comments. Start engaging.
That's going to encourage anyone who's left a comment to
hit the follow button on your profile. So, there you have it.
Those are four ways for you to grow your followers fast on
Pinterest and get to those first thousand subscribers and
remember, in moderation, I wouldn't more than five minutes
a day doing this. Don't follow too many accounts at a time.
Don't leave too many comments at a time. Be sure to do it in
a natural and organic way. Don't push too hard or you
might get bite by the Pinterest spam blocker. So, if you found
