Earning Through Affiliate Links In Pinterest

Pinterest is a social media with an entirely different format. It is rarely used for chats and uploading personal photos. Mostly they are used for business purposes to sell the products and let people know what we are selling. Another thing that is different in Pinterest is that the format in which the posts are made in Pinterest is more or less that of infographics kind, which makes it more attractive and informative. 

How can you earn through Pinterest?  

Pinterest is one interactive platform where we can link the posts to the webpage they are supposed to go to. We can give the post, product info, captions and the product link all in a single post or pin as called in Pinterest each time. We can create boards and add pins from our business as well as related pins from other accounts to increase the interaction. 

Idea of Idea Pins  

In Pinterest we can create a normal post/pin, ad or an idea pin. Idea pin is a carousel of post or short videos that we can upload about our products. If you have a Pinterest account, you probably would have noticed a carousel of videos that shows crafts, recipes etc, these are none other than idea pins. 

Idea pins enjoy a special privilege as they users can tag the products to the posts while getting a very high engagement rate. The engagement rate on pins is said to be around 9 times higher than the normal pins/posts. So posting an affiliate product with the link will help you earn a commission if someone clicks or buys through the link.
