I’d Love to Pin You!

I love the blogging community. I visit your sites dear followers and I pin your articles on Pinterest (if you have that sharing button available). Pinterest_Logo

I also share your posts on other social networks, but I’ve noticed that Pinterest draws more reposts (repins) for you (and hopefully more interest) than Facebook or Twitter.

So that this can be a more collaborative event, I would like to begin anew. I’ve added a new Pin Board to Pinterest named Let’s Pin Each Other

If you were already following me on Pinterest, I’ve sent you an invite to be an admin on this Pinning Board. Having admin rights allows you to also pin pages, sites, and pictures to this board so you too can promote your own business, interests, blogs, and causes near and dear to your heart.

If you have not received an invite, be patient. Pinterest will only allow me to grant 5 admins every 30 minutes it seems (so I am not marked as spam). Also, please know that if you are not following me on Pinterest, I cannot send you an invite to become an admin.

Let’s support each other and pin way.  After-all, I’d Love to Pin You!!

Not sure what to do? Take these steps:

  1. Set up an account on Pinterest (if you have not already).  You can use this link to get to Pinterest and will be prompted to set up an account if you do not have one: http://pinterest.com/csachb/lets-pin-each-other/
  2. Follow me – You’ll see a button to Follow All boards, but you really shouldn’t have to do that if you do not want to. It is important that you Follow that board named Let’s Pin Each Other though. If you do not follow this board, I can not invite you to be an admin.
  3. Add the Pinterest sharing button to your blog if it is not already there. If you need help doing this, WordPress offers assistance on this help page: http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/
  4. Start Pinning your favorite articles 🙂  I would recommend that you only pin 3-4 of your own personal articles a month for the board to be successful. If you only write once a week, this should be easy for you. If you pin to many too often, it may turn off others as they scroll through the board looking for articles to read.  So, scatter your pins on this board to be more effective 🙂
  5. Any SPAM pinning will be removed and admin privileges provoked.
  6. I will follow one or more of your boards.

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s pin each other dear writers, business owners, and heartfelt causes or charities!!

Happy Pinning 🙂

Pinterest has just resolved my service ticket with them and I can now add new pinners to this board. So, drop me a line or comment below if you’re still following me and still waiting to be added to this group  board. I’ll add you ASAP!

    • Hi Kate, I tried to add you, but I think the reason I can’t is you are not following me specifically. Try that and I’ll get you added in a flash!

    • I’ve tried to ad you 3 times and for some reason it’s not working. I followed you. I think you must follow back so that I can add you to that board.

  21. Hi! Please, could you send me an invite to be an admin on “Let’s pin each other” I’m already following that board (my Pinterest’s account – Planetodayimage)

    My blog is on wordpress.org and has the Pinterest sharing button.

    Thanks!

    • Hi Dorian! Thanks for the reminder. I haven’t been on Pinterest in a while! I’ll add you today if I can. You must be following me or that board in order for me to send you the invite though.

      • OK. Take your time. Anyway somebody told me yesterday he had problems with its group board. Not sure you’ll have to open a new one except if you got a message from Pinterest of course.

  23. Hi Christina,

    Hows it going? I just started getting into pintrest and keen to get me teeth into it.
    Came across your lets pin each other board earlier and thought how such a good idea that is I just had to get in touch!

    Anyway I am following both you and the board and have just changed my sharing buttons on my blog to allow for pinterest on there!

    Oh and btw my profile on pintrest is pinterest.com/BRUMBLOG/
    Looking forward to repinning some epic pins.
    All the Best

    – Phillip

  26. Hi! I just followed your “Let’s Pin Each Other” board, but it’s not showing up when I attempt to pin…? Only my own boards are showing up as options to pin. I’m a newbie to Pinterest, so I apologize if this is a simple thing to figure out! Any suggestions? Thank you!

    • Don’t forget to follow that board so I can add you as an admin. That way you can also share your own articles in case I am absent from the computer 🙂

      • I followed the board! I also tried to pin one of my posts, but it said there was nothing pinnable on the page. Does it have to have a picture?

        • Yes, pictures help 🙂 Pinterest likes to pin images or photos. I was able to pin your home page using the wordpress logo, but there may end up being many of those logos for people without images in a post. WordPress recommends giving readers a visual with each post (although I am guilty of not doing this with every post also). Your site is pinned for now though. Feel free to add an image to a particularly awesome post that you write and want to share next time 🙂
