Growing your follower base on social media can be a challenge, so I thought I’d share a few tips I use to increase followers for my clients. These tips helped me to grow followers for one of my clients by over 3000 in about a year and a half.
1. Pin regular content
Nothing is more important that posting regular content. People who pin love fresh content, and making sure you pin content relevant to your business can deliver that to your followers.
2. Pin popular content
Four of the most popular content types on Pinterest are food and drink, DIY and crafts, women’s fashion, and quotes. If you can tie these topics to your business, you can increase followers.
3. Follow back
If someone follows you, follow him/her back. I personally follow only boards that are relevant to my (our my client’s) business, but feel free to follow all their boards if it works for you.
4. Like the pins your followers repin of yours
Whenever my followers repin my pins, I always go to their boards to like them. I think it’s a way to show appreciation.
5. Repin their content
Since you’re on their board liking your content that they repinned, repin their content to reciprocate the pinning love.
6. Follow the recommended boards.
When you repin content that has been pinned elsewhere, Pinterest will recommend other boards. Follow them. The board owners will often follow you back.
That’s it. 6 easy ways to increase Pinterest followers. What tricks do you use?
