Hi Troy,
It depends on your niche really. I am in the lifestyle niche which is perfect for Pinterest. But I find with the right angle lots of niches could work just as well.
But here are some tips that helped me grow fast. I am no expert by any means and still a newbie to it, these are just what has worked for me so far.
First make sure your pin, pin titles, description and boards are optimized with keywords (seems obvious) this way Pinterest knows what it’s about.
I find that using enticing titles on my pins works. For instance, instead of saying 10 ways to clean your kitchen, I would write something like 10 Insanely Easy Ways to Clean Your Kitchen FAST. Other words that work great are absolute best, or super. Just very over-the-top words lol. But I make sure I deliver on my promise.
Another thing I noticed is Pinterest users like to save things sometimes without clicking out to your website, so sometimes I give all or some of the info away on the pin itself (i.e 150 Self-Care tips and I give maybe 25 in the pin itself). This encourages saves and likes which in turn will grow your reach. And a lot of people still end up clicking out to find out more. It seems that engagement is everything…the more people like and save the more your pins get pushed out. I believe this strategy is what helped me grow more than anything.
Lastly, I create content for the seasons or occasions. I create them at least 1 month in advance. For instance, my spring content I had up in January and it’s now taking off.
I test different things and when I see something working I go all in on that.
hope that helps
