And the best part here is, I don't spend any more than 1-2 hours PER MONTH on the site. Most of this is viral traffic that has been building over time.And the number of views i get is near to 3000 views.
Pinterest is one of the most untapped traffic sources on the web because many people just write it off as "just another social network site."
Even if you don't have a Pinterest account, you can STILL get traffic from this network.
The reason is Pinterest users can "pin" images from your site onto their page and every pinned image from your page links back toYOUR site!
So if they like your article on "How to [whatever]" they can use their browser or phone Pinterest app to pin the image from that article to their board, which results in a link back to your website.
Now their followers will see your image in their feeds and can also re-pin the image to their own boards.
So right away you can probably see how important it is for you to have attractive, eye-catching images on your site. That's been the secret to my success with Pinterest.
How Pinterest Works
As a Pinterest user, you create boards on topics that interest you and "pin" images to them.
So if you love shoes, you can create a board called "Awesome Shoes" and whenever you're browsing the Web and find a pair of shoes you love, you simply click the "Pin It" button on your browser toolbar (that you install) and the picture gets pinned to your board.
Once again, people can "like" your pins, follow your boards and re-pin images you post to their own boards.
How Does Pinterest Generate Traffic?
There are two ways to get traffic from this network.
1) You can add your website address to your Pinterest profile
2) When images are pinned, they link back to the website source. (This is how I get most of my traffic.)
So if someone likes an article or image from your site and decides to pin it to their board, the image links back to your site.
