Sounds like an enormous amount of work. I would've expected more income with the amount of followers that you have and keep on getting but I think it will change soon.

Good luck, bud! I hope it pays off well for you.
 
I dunno how many clicks you actually get to your website using pinterest but the income looks really low to me.
You should try promoting leapviral

They are kinda like mylikes but better pay rates and they pay worldwide...
You can also create your own content that matches your audience better...
 
OKay I will try this! I think I have to change my pinning method, I need to keep my pinning ratio at 20% instead of spamming.

Why is everyone under the impression that followers matter.. That make no difference at all. I could start a fresh account, 0 followers and still drive traffic. Group boards are what you need to be apart of.

How can you get invited to join group boards? or do you think we should create a board and start inviting people to add pins to it, so we're basically creating our own group board?
 
OP, give mylikes a try. Even though a lot of people are bashing them you should be able to earn more than $1/day with them.
 
Hi guys, thanks a lot for all those alternatives.

I will give all of them a try after my finals. I also apologise for not being 100% hardworking right now but it is only because of incoming finals.

After the 26th I will try every single stuff that you mentionned.

For this time I can only allow myself to post small updates because engaging in new methods has a snowball effect on me and I tend to spend around 14 hours a day only doing them or thinking about them which is self sabotaging regarding my grades.


Thanks for your understanding

I never get invited to groupboards :( I have only one acc that got invited to one groupboard only, i create my own and get myself popular :)
 
I have changed my follower gathering method. I will now concentrate on boards.

I have an account with almost 2k followers on his own thanks to boards and another with 1k followed by smaller ones.

I picked 10 accounts and will make around 5 boards/acc and invite up to 1k followers to pin in my boards.

I expect around 2k new followers/day on full autopilot after every acc has reached 1k publishers on every single board.


After this I will only pin a few pins to promote my websites ( I'll create a lot more niche related blogger blogs with keyword research) and will focus on finding new niches. I think it will improve my earnings a lot.


Follower count 21k

No earnings, people don't come to my website anymore, even if I pin.


Thank you for sticking with this thread even if it is failing in the moment.

No. I'm in Pinterest wave since 2011. Let me explain you guys some things.

- followers are the most important ( the real followers, not the pinblaster crap following system )
- You should NEVER pin in public boards. Why ? Because the secret sauce in this social network is to keep your account/accounts alive. If your account is alive, your traffic will stack and this is what your goal is. If your account get banned, all pins disappear with it. Why not pin in public boards ? Because the stupid retards will report you for no reasons. I don't know exactly how many reports trigger auto ban, but this is not fiction, it's real shity spam protection script. Your account is banned, well you can contact the support. Nowadays they actually answer fast and actually look at your problem. Okay... but what if your account is not legit ( and it's not LOL you are spammers ), you will never get it back...

Blablablabla too much you think ? =) look for user venci90 in pinterest, take a look how it should be done. I won't share more details how I've made it, because there are pinterest fags that look for that kind of info. But what I can share with you is again this:

- Followers matter !
- NO pins in public boards ( i won't even mention that there are tools that report your pins, just to make you feels sad about the ban )
- Pin only in your boards ( that's why followers matter )
- NO more than 10 pins/hour to your sites/blogs
- MUST repin other people stuff
- MUST like other people stuff
- Commenting is optional, but it's good choice.

If you are using your own scripts, do not run them more than 10 hours. And believe me... 10-20 ... 30k followers won't make you Richi Rich and still it is a good way to earn some money every day + the nice social signals ( if you are SEO guy )

P.S. I don't sell anything, do not PM me for tools and stuff.

Good luck guys !
 
Solid information Vekkata, thanks for sharing.

I've wanted to get more involved in Pinterest but it seems pretty arduous. Best of luck. If you haven't stepped into linking Amazon and you are still going strong then that might be worthwhile.
 
Hi vekkata, do you care explaining why liking other people's stuff is important? I do it sometimes, I don't feel like its changing anything, i still get ~100 followers/day on my main acc

Doing those things help your account to look legit. Not only for users, but also legit in the spam protection scripts "eyes". Also help a lot if your account get auto banned by the system. When you contact the support and human review your account, there is big chance those people to restore your account ( talking from experience ).

But doing all that manually is time consuming, my tips are mostly for the people that can make their own tools. Imacro .js scripting help a lot !

Cheers !
 
I kept 20 of my best accounts, 10 where I will create boards and 10 for repinings


I now have 8200 followers. Biggest accs have 1800 and 800 and get ~130 and ~60 for the smaller one /day without doing anything. I really like the total autonomy of this follower gathering method :D


Still no earnings but Ill "add a website" to my account and I believe It'll bring some traffic on its own aside pining updates from my site.


I created a brand for my clothing niche and am still looking on how to get some followers really fast using other accounts.

This is good shit, seems like you know your stuff. If you're open to questions:

1) By public boards you mean other peoples boards? As in post on ONLY your own forever? Most people make group boards seem imperative for success, due to some boards having upwards of a million followers.

2) Do you strip other people website urls from you re-pins; or at least some of the time to drive more traffic to your site as there is less comp within your boards?

3) Are you banking hard from this? Even when becoming "part of the gang", and getting a bunch of followers I'm still concerned with the traffic either:

a. not having buyers intent
b. knowing theres a better site in the next pin

I've been analyzing other pinners sites in whatever niche I'm interested in, and I can say these women have put A LOT of time into there websites. They all seem to be too cheap to afford personal hosting but even the (niche).blogger.coms look fantastic. And this isnt like google where the first page takes the cake, regardless of the quality of other sites buried within the SERPs. Women are coming across hundreds of sites better than yours daily as they are bombarded with similar pins.

I imagine site quality + trust + sales psychology is absolutely imperative when going into pinterest with any other game plan than e-commerce of physical amazon products.

I can see why most people are getting >5K UV's and pennies in profit.

Meh the ctr is lame and the cpc is lame too. Thats why we get pennies, but if we switch to CPM maybe well see some gold :D
 
I took a day off studying and made a new website, put adsense on it and a few recipes with photos. Ads don't show up yet.

Followers: on main acc 2.5k, all accs simultaneously 10k
