How can I effectively use Pinterest to drive traffic to my furniture store's website, Should I link to my main page or the specific category page, and are there any other strategies to optimize my use of Pinterest?

You can post image posting pins regularly that will link to your website. These pins will drive traffic back to your website. But these days I have observed that image pins are not getting more views inside Pinterest. Instead video pins (idea pins) are getting more and more views. The problem is that these video pins can not be linked to your website.

So ideally you should try a mix of Video pins and image pins in your Pinterest account.

The video pins will bring users to your profile and image pins will send the traffic to your site.

Link to individual products with their descriptions as well. Pinterest heavily relies on numbers. The platform could be showing that you're getting 100,000 impressions but barely 500 is getting to your site every month.

You need to be consistent and also use tags and popular keywords to post.

Pins to your website. Video works best so a mix of video and image pins should be ok. Correct hashtags are a thing for more engagement on your pins.

What's the best frequency with images and videos on a weekly basis?

What's the best frequency with images and videos on a weekly basis?

I have posted 5 to 8 fresh pins with unique URL's per day without any problem. However experts have advised that we can post up to 20 unique pins per day without any problem (as long as the pins are original and linking to the unique URL).

I share one video as an idea per day, but I think you can post 5 if you can create these many videos.

Use a steering wheel..

Jokes aside, it’ll prudent to better understand your audience before joining any groups.

Search for targeted groups mainly furniture (not just designs), and share your pins - try to be laser targeted till your brand is established

As a beginner, I thing Pinterest is good to drive traffic by using ideal pin, and image pin.
