11 Secrets To Skyrocket Your Page Views
In early 2018, after seeing inspiring story after inspiring rags to riches blog stories. I gained enough confidence and research to start my own blog. (If you haven’t started yours yet. Start here.)
At this point I just knew these successful bloggers kept saying how Pinterest changed their life(income). But I never really got the 360 answer to how to make this happen. I was only finding half the answer. The normal Tailwind, Email List kinda thing.
I’m ready to tell you the 360 all around answer to how I grew my Pinterest Views from 26k to 71k in less than 2 months.
Here is a view of my December Pintetest Views
February Pinterest Views
As you can see in December my views was not bad at 24k. I remember seeing that number I was so excited. My followers was only about 20 then. Now my followers at 109. That’s not too much. But I have just been seeing my views,income and all my other stats gradually increase.
Update: I’m now at 300k monthly views. Check out to see if they have went up even more. Pinterest.com/allmodernmommy
Goal for 2020: Get to 500k monthly viewers by June 2020 (Update: I’m at 710k Feb. 2020) Whohoo!!!
My Secrets To Success
I did not take any paid courses to achieve this success. The two tweaks I did were all free 30 day trials. I canceled one before the 30day trial needed because it wasn’t needed longer than that.
How will this make me money?
Pinterest is the home to millions of users. Once you start having people seeing your pins (images to match to your site). Once you have views on your site. It’s up to you to lock them in to being loyal subscribers and potential customers to any of your products.
1. Change to a Pinterest Business Account
This is the very first step you should take when you want to drive traffic from Pinterest to your site. If you already have a personal account it is easy just to convert over in the settings section.
2. Change Your Pinterest Name Format
Have you ever seen how those polished bloggers have a polished look to everything attached to their brand? Go look at your favorite blogger that is successful. I guarantee you that their name in Pinterest will go like this:
Name| 30 characters or less Description of what you do
Take a look at mine:
3. Change Your Bio
Write up 2 to 3 sentences to describe who you are and what you do. But here’s the catch. Grab the readers attention. Make them interested. And most importantly use SEO Keywords. This is important because the search engines (Google, Pinterest,Bing) will like you more. Think of SEO like this: When you go to type something into Google or Pinterest and you are given other options to predict what your sentence or question maybe. Those predictors are high ranked keywords.
(By the way I’m not a SEO pro or guru either. I hate the techy stuff.😑 However, I can tell you what I have gathered and what helped.)
Update for 2020:I am now self proclaimed Seo Guru. I help clients learn the basics of Seo and help turn their blog into perfection. If you are interested in my affordable services, comment you are looking for help below.

Here is my description:
4. Join Social Media Groups
You will never guess how many bloggers or inspiring bloggers belong to these groups. I mean over 30 thousand people belong to these groups. Can you imagine how much your page views will increase?You can post your blogs there and ask for people to follow you on Pinterest and you will follow them back. Like a follow for a follow. I will say read the rules for each group. Because some groups do not allow any self promotion, only questions and advice.
This was my final step that really made my followers go up on Pinterest. From being in these groups if I promoted my blog they would go straight to my blog. Even better.
I just started my own Facebook Group. You can freely post your products,blog or website on this group. I haven’t put alot of time in promoting this group so the followers is not alot. So bare with me. However, I wanted a safe place for bloggers to network and promote their products and business. So if that sounds like what your interested in I would be humble for you to join it.
5. Join Pinterest Group Boards
Group Boards is a Pinterest board where the original owner opens the board to let thousands of people collaborate and post things to this board as well. That means that you will automatically have thousands of eyes on whatever you share from the people already on that group board alone. Your traffic will not only increase but so will your followers. You will begin to network with other bloggers and that is a start.
Later, someone could feature your links on their blog.It’s a win-win.Tailwind also allows you to schedule your pins to this group anytime because it’s now your board too. Just make sure you read the rules to each board as they vary. It’s not easy finding these groups. It’s not like you can search group boards and they just pop up. (Trust me I did this).
Enter your email in the subscription box below and I will send you over 175 group boards. I will also tell you how to ask to join them and how to find more.Your page views will soar. Sign up below for those tips and more of my blogging secrets.
6. Kindle Book Free Sign Up
I was excited to start my Kindle Book sign up. Pinterest is a great way to look and read articles/posts. But what about those blogging BOOKS full of tons of posts like those all in one book. I love Kindle because:
- I can highlight the key points
- Save the page for later to my device
- Let my kids read their books
- And I had 30 days free to do this all to try it out
I didn’t keep my subscription because I only read about two books on blogging which I loved and grew even more knowledge on. If you want to check them out here they are:
Here is 30 day free trial using my link.
7. Tailwind Scheduler
Okay, before when I was just manually pinning my pins. I kept hearing and seeing Tailwind, Tailwind, Tailwind! Enough already! However, manually pinning my pins were not only time consuming but impratical. I signed up through another bloggers 30 day free trial link. From day one my views increased gradually since using this genius scheduler.
Here is my link. Sign up with a 30 day free trial for Tailwind to test drive it.
Tailwind can visually be intimidating at first. But you will find everything under the publisher. The steps to Tailwind is:
- Download the chrome extension on Google chrome
- Open Pinterest/your blog and you will see the Tailwind schedule, CLICK all pins you want scheduled
- Go to Tailwind click drafts you will see all the pins you saved
- Make sure all images have a description and url site attached. If not add them
- Now schedule them.
Yayy! Your good to go with pins up to weeks or months.
Meaning your Tailwind is scheduling your content at the best times when your viewers are active.
You can use my link for a 30 day trial for Tailwind here.
8. Organize Your Boards
Organize your boards to relevant content on your blog/site. If your a lifestyle blogger you will have different boards things for children,recipes,inspirational, work from home boards. Those kind of things. They match with your niche. If your blog is just focused on one thing example if you have a food blog.
9. Follow Links
Add Your site onto your business account. That way your fans can link back to your website. Additionally, add follow me links on your website. There are many plugins you can use to add a Pinterest follow me sign.
The best one out there is Social Warfare. I use it right along with all the top blog gurus.
10. Enable Rich Pins
This step can be done with just changing the settings to enable rich pins. Go the settings tab on your Pinterest account.This will make your pins(images) look more polished. This will gain you more credibility.
11. Pin Steps
Having pins that are attractive can be intimidating. Don’t fret I will give you a quick but detailed way to convert high traffic with some good looking pins.
- I use Canva for my pins. They also have an app that’s useful times 10 when I don’t want to be on my laptop.
- Long vertical pins is what you need to use. (564w × 1128l)
- Write a description for each pin (it can be the same description for a different image but linking to the same post.
- Make pins your brand colors. Meaning what is your color scheme on your blog/site?
- No more than 2 different fonts. Bold and script is popular.

Great tips! I will definitely have to implement them!
Awesome tips for bloggers that use Pinterest!
These are some awesome tips!! I love how you write down your goals as well! So inspiring
Great advice! Tailwind is great, isn’t it?
Yes, I just love Tailwind. The interface is a bit overwhelming starting out. But it’s functions is amazing.
Great Tips! I definitely need to try these! I would love to see my views go up!
I’m sure they will. Just be consistent in whatever strategy you use.
Needed this post. Tailwind IS SO intimidating. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks so…..now to just figure it out
I love this! I’m currently focusing much more on learning more about Pinterest and building there. This post helps a whole lot. Thank you!!
Yes, to be quite honest I shied away from Tailwind. I tried to find a user-friendly platform. I searched high and low and could not find one to do the same. Tip just focuses on the publisher’s portion to start.
Pinterest is my favorite way to get traffic, I arrived to 100k monthly Pinterest views in 2 months but I hope to get more
Great suggestions! Pinterest is one of my main sources of traffic for my blog, and all of these steps definitely helped get those views up!
Hi Star,
Thanks for sharing! Pinterest is super key when trying to reach a good audience especially for bloggers. Growing your audience takes consistency and dedication. I was able to grow my audience extremely fast in one month but then I stop putting attention to my account and my views went down.
So consistency and dedication is required.
Hello Kayla,
Consistency is definitely key. It is literally a make or break deal. Thanks for stopping by.
I don’t see much growth from Group boards… maybe I’m just in the wrong ones! Haha! But tailwind has exponentially grown my views and followers!
I would aim at the group boards that have around 200 to 250 contributors. The more contributors your pins can get lost in the sauce. Also pin as often as possible(while following the rules) to group boards.
“manually pinning my pins were not only time consuming but impratical.”
This is where I am at…still manually pinning! I think I need to try Tailwind…
I love Tailwind. I actually do a combination. Now I fill up my Tailwind scheduler and still pin trending topic pins manually. If I don’t happen to have the time to do it. Tailwind is my backup.
Great suggestions. I too have felt a little overwhelmed with working Pinterest to get traffic to my site, but the few times i have really focused I have seen a huge difference! I’m going to enable my rich pins since I don’t think I have done that yet! Thank you!
You’re so welcome. Yes, the smallest tweaks can make all the difference.
This post is super helpful! Cant wait to implement these tips with my own Pinterest. XO
