Starting my journey to make money utilizing Pinterest

Lately I’ve been diving into the world of Pinterest—not just for inspiration, but as a way to actually make money. I’ve always heard people talk about how Pinterest can drive traffic, boost sales and grow an online presence, but I never really understood how powerful it could be until I started experimenting myself.
My first step has been learning how Pinterest really works. It’s not like other social media platforms—Pinterest is a visual search engine. That means keywords matter, titles matter and pins can keep bringing in traffic for months or even years. I’ve been testing simple strategies like creating fresh pins for my blog posts, adding keyword-rich descriptions and linking back to this blog where I share affiliate products I genuinely use.
What I’ve learned so far: consistency beats perfection. I am trying to post 2-3 times a day. I'm a mom of three who also has a full time job so it isn't easy, but I'm giving it a go. And the best part? Once a pin takes off, it can keep working in the background while you focus on other things.
I’m still early in the process, but I’m excited to see where this experiment goes. If Pinterest really is the passive-income goldmine people say it is, I’m determined to find out—one pin at a time. This is just month one, so I will keep share what I learn!
