My new social media sweetheart is Pinterest, and I am not alone.
According to recent studies, Pinterest is now driving more referral traffic on the web than Google+, YouTube, Reddit, and LinkedIn — combined. This is powerful stuff from a “traffic” perspective, but anyone who has tried Pinterest knows the real power is in its clean, visual and addictive nature.
I have quite a few boards: recipes, fashion inspirations, travel destinations, vision board ideas, home staging tips, Western Massachusetts…all sorts of wonderful things are pinned there. Well, it would simple to pin and run, but I am a woman of action and as such, I have been working my way through my boards and trying things out.
To date I have made t-shirt scarves and ribbon flowers with my daughters, terrariums, framed “white board”, numerous recipes and have shopped for new apparel with pins in mind.
So, follow me and my journey through Pinterest. What are you pinning these days and have you tried any of the crafts, recipes, designs, etc.? I would love to see pictures, if so. Put the link in the comments below!
fine print: only log into Pinterest if you have done all the productive things you need to do in that day. It is a giant wormhole and can be a timesuck. My friend Jeff wrote a great post about that recently.
