Increase The Number of Followers on Pinterest
Great, easy to manage and fun! These would be 3 words describing best Pinterest, but another one that comes into my mind whenever I’m thinking about Pinterest is marketing and ways of improving the web authority. As I mentioned in a previous article about pinterest-like sites, image bookmarking is growing extremely fast and their importance in the social environment becomes essential.
Like Twitter, Pinterest is preparing to start a social revolution based on a followship system that continues on the next level. Having many followers on Pinterest doesn’t just mean that you get authority on the site, but you also get more exposure for your online business and a dedicated active community on your side. That’s why, as a smart online marketer, you want to settle the ground in the early times so that you can enjoy great benefits when everybody is on Pinterest.
Since Pinterest is based on visual objects, it is only obvious to get best results for pins that are appealing.
Free Ways to Get More Pinterest Followers
Is not always the fastest way to bring Pinterest followers, but if you are dedicated and really enjoy spending time browsing Pinterest’s content and don’t have money to spend, then you should approach it!
Twitter Principles
Just like Twitter, Pinterest is a social community based on followship and that’s why you must be very interested in offering users what they really want…followers. So, by following others people will notice you and as a sign of appreciation they will follow you back in no time. Now, I’m not saying you should start following like a freak, but try to find people with similar interest and try to build a bond with them.
- Use Hashtags
Yup…hashtags are quite popular on Pinterest too, and like on Twitter and Google+, these are the ones helping users to easily find your content. So use them, but try to be relevant and don’t overdo it.
- Talk About Popular Pinterest Subjects/Users
Popular means that there are lots of people in…which means huge opportunity for you to explore. Get in the buzz by mentioning popular people, events, subjects. Use the “@mention”!
Comment
Being active is vital in every social community because that shows your followers and other members that you are interested in doing great things. Besides that, commenting on others Pins means feedback for others which in most cases means a lot especially if that person doesn’t receive lots of comments.
Picking popular accounts can bring you even more exposure and if your comment is relevant and comes with great arguments, you can even bring a large number of their visitors to your Pinterest.
Organize and Pin
Personally I like to focus on just one niche for my every Pinterest account because it allows me to better focus on what really matters and helps me provide better content for my followers. Of course, this doesn’t mean you need to do the same thing for your account. In fact, you can pick as many subjects as you wish and spread them in as many Boards as you wish, but keep in mind that you need to handle all of them with ease and provide users best experience.
My advice would be to start simple and grow from there. Spend some time on creating or picking a pin that can easily go viral. This will bring you lots of attention and as a result, you will get tons of followers.
Sync Your Pinterest Account With Social Websites
This is a vital step if you want to obtain best results on Twitter, Facebook and also keep a place open for the new Pinterest. You can easily synchronize the Pinterest account with Facebook and Twitter by going to: Your Account -> Settings -> Simply Click on to Link Facebook or Twitter to your account. You can also add Pinterest to your Facebook timeline as long as you don’t decide to post the same story manually.
Once you synchronize Pinterest with Facebook and Twitter, you get access to many possibilities including the friend messaging/following option which allows you to send as many Pinterest invites you wish and also to follow your Facebook friends who are already on the platform. The following process is almost instant and since they are your friends, it’s a huge possibility to follow you back in no time.
No Spam, Be Professional, Be Cool!
Nobody likes spam and definitely nobody likes weird and unappealing. So give your pins viewers reasons to follow you by setting up some ground rules. Schedule a time for posts, they shouldn’t be to often, but at the same time you have to keep your account updated. Personally I believe that 1 to 5 pins/day are ok! By doing this, your user will get used to your posting schedule and visit often.
Paid Ways to Get Pinterest Followers
Trading money for time is always best option, but you should also have the certainty that those money are invested in a smart way and you will receive best results. Bellow I have listed some of the most secure and reliable ways to drive followers to your Pinterest account.
Buy Followers
Easy, fast and in most cases it does not require a large sum of money. In fact, buying followers for Pinterest is quite cheap and I’ve seen some great websites out there providing quite professional services too. Among them you can check:
A serious service created to offer repins and build a serious viral marketing campaign for your business
One of the greatest deals when talking about followers. They are new in the industry but already rocking the place! You can get Pinterest followers in a jiffy, a great number of Facebook fans and some other SEO services too at a great price.
Pay Others to Promote Your Pins
Fiverr, eLance, Freelancer.com or whatever you choose can bring you professional pin promotion which can result in a nice amount of traffic and why not…followers and authority on Pinterest. Just a simple search on Fiverr for “Pinterest” brings up lots of results and all are for just $5.
I just finished reading this post and wondered why would I need to get more followers on Pinterest, but not long after doing so I found out that it has over 21 million visitors every month so is most definitely a social booster. Thank you for all the great advices!
1 in 5 active pinterest users buy what they pin.
Can’t say that about
Google
Twitter
Facebook
or Quora
If you want to grow your followers rapidly, just use an automation program. I use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVdMeg2N8cM
And it does exactly what I’d do by hand but on autopilot 24 hours a day.
Here is a free Business Pinterest Follower Exchange http://kungphoo.com/circles/view/business-pinterest-follower-exchange
Another way to get more followers is to add your profile to a Pinterest directory such as WePin.org.
Hey, Lady Pinsalot! Thanks for the tip! Is indeed a good idea to get more attention for your Pinterest account using directories, but Pinterest is quite new so at the moment there aren’t so many solutions for this. Still, I am sure that pretty soon the web will be filled with these kind of sites and an experience similar to Twitter directories will be created.
I agreed with Lady Pinsalot. WePins.org is good.
But buying pinterest followers is the good idea. I bought some follower. It worked well.
Hi, as a new member to Pinterest only today I was flying blind but this post has been very helpful…and thanks Lady Pinsalot for the directory info!
lady pinsalot, and anyone else who uses wepin.com,
I got an account with wepin but I have no idea how to use it or what to do… or what a dirctory is actually :p please help. I would love more followers
This is an excellent post. Pinterest is becoming more and more important. The website has been populated with women. I tried one of those services to buy pinterest follower with a company called Social HQ : http://buypinterestfollowers.me/.
Very cool to buy Pinterest Followers
Pinterest is no doubt one of the best social network and is gaining popularity at a fast pace. There is a need to remain cool and calm which people do not understand and spam their links rapidly. As a result you get less number of followers with no interest. Send may be a couple of posts a day but with quality content.
Thank you for this article. I have only recently joined and I was not really sure how to get many followers. The directory idea is great and I have just signed up to it. Thanks again and keep the articles coming:)
Great tips, it really helped me out,
also I tried Pinteresting services to buy pinterest followers and got them easily,
they gave me good support and I got 300 pinterest followers in just 15 days,
http://pinterestingservices.com
they are amazing in services.
Totaly agree with you john, i used pinterestin service to buy pinterest followers, they are extreamly cheap. Moreover they provided all real follower, i never though any website can provide REAL services in this IM days. My sale totally increased by 4 times this week.
There are 2 newly launched pinterest services you failed to mention and I find them to be the best in the market thus far. They are: http://www.buyrealpinterestfollowers.com and http://www.pinterestrepin.org. You should give them some props.
great tools indeed.
There are also a couple of analytics tools that might be of interest for pinterest, like pinerly or htt://www.pinalyzer.com
Still not too sure why I need followers on pinterest? i’m not selling anything, this is something I do for me.
Yes, if you use Pinterest for personal stuff or just fun, then is not necessary to have loads of followers. Still, if you want to use it as a marketing strategy, then it is highly recommended to have lots of followers just to give your content a boost in social zone.
I got my followers for free using Pinflux: http://pinflux.com/club/.
I just started from the top row.
It’s essentially a pin exchange. People will follow you when you follow them. The trick is to follow all of their boards instead of one or else the people won’t see that you’ve followed them. And it helps to have a nice picture too.
Just want to ask, how many invites can one send using the email option?
thanks for this guide i will put my Pinterest acc on some of those directories/boards as currently I don’t have any followers (I think).
There’s no limit to how many invites you can send using e-mail option, but I am sure that Pinterest has a filter for spammers…so just don’t overdo it because you might get a surprise.
I have so much to learn about Pinterest. Thanks for the tips to get me on my way!
Great Artcicle, thanks. Do you know any tool for Pinterest like manageflitter.com for managing your followers, following, etc. Thanks
john, i too tried pinterestingservices.com, the provided me 300 pinterest followers, i can’t believe that i got ifollowers n just 8 days. all followers are real so fast, very good service. i’d like to say other’s must try them.
It would be great if some sites provide free option to add pinterest followers as they do for facebook, twitter and google plus.
What type of followers are you getting if you buy them. Seen people buy followers on Facebook and they are all junky. Is it really worth it?
Wonderful post.all that you mentioned is right ,thank you ,I look forward to more posts .
Thanks again.
this is really just what I was looking for – I have just started using pinterest & do not have very many followers, except for the ones that followed me over from facebook – I would enjoy learning more about your tips and look forward to reading more…
Thank you for the article, I find it useful. We have recently set up out Pinterest page and are now working on including this on our new website design.
Our new page: http://pinterest.com/promocodesuk/
I’m not really a fan of buying Twitter / Pinterest /Facebook followers, I think it’s much better of these are grown organically. It takes longer, and need more effort however it more beneficial.
I guess what ever social media site the fundamental principle remains the same. Share others posts, collaborate with your followers regularly, provide exciting content with good titles and that should lead you to have good followers. Admittedly couldn’t master that yet
If anyone out there is up for latest news on technology around software tools and services here is our pinterest profile. I am sure you will love and yeah we are newbie’s on pinterest as well.

I am fairly new to pinterest. I am trying to figure out hashtags. I would post a photo and then tell something about it and then add #farm #barn #silo. But they don’t show up when I go and search those items. Do I need to put a comma in between them? I would appreciate any advice!!! Thanks!
Great article! In addition to the ways you mentioned, there’s another great service to organically gain followers that’s definitely worth mentioning. Pinleague helps people build traffic naturally on Pinterest who match your target audience and engage those users automatically for you to bring them to you, growing your follower base faster, which is way more reputable then other sites where you buy fake traffic. Hope this helps and thanks!
Great feedback on getting more Pinterest likes, followers, repins etc.
Another site not mentioned to Buy real Pinterest Followers is US based http://pinterest-followers.com
I have used them in the past and the quality is excellent. Real people and active heavy users of Pinterest.
A quick free and easy way of getting extra pinterest followers is using an exchange like freefans or if you want them even quicker, consider buying them at http://freefans.co.uk/buy_fans/
This was a great read and very helpful. I’m not very patient with Pinterest, but I’m going to give this stuff another try

Well written tips to get the most out followers on Pinterest .
Interconnected of social sites is very significant to increase followers on any social sites and that’s work for me always.
Yes. it is helping and very useful article. now my fan base is increasing thanks.. http://pinterest.com/hotelpictures/
It’s really tough to make presense on pinterest and increase the followers but this post can help a bit for everyone who are new to pinterest. I really appreciate for sharing these tips with us.
Hey Thanks for the great article. As an additional info Pinterest company have started removing the fake followers or if they found any suspicious activities in the board, to make them 100% organic.. So be sure that you are getting only real authentic followers..
I recently signed up with Pinterest and exploring its usage. Getting followers is definitely a challenge, especially if you want relevant followers for your area/topic/business. Thanks for your useful information.
I have found cheapest service http://PinGurus.com to get Pinterest Likes, Followers, Pins & Repins, Check the Rates you wont regret.
There are many ways to get a lot of followers, but popular-looking accounts always get more. You can start promoting your account from getting 100, 200 or 1000+ followers for only $5 on Fiverr. There are a lot of gigs offering followers like this:
fiverr.com/questionn/add-1000-pinterest-followers-to-your-account-within-24-hours-without-admin-access
Cant believe people are thinking of buying followers. 1 If they are real they will not be intrested in you ar you services. 2 you will be banned. Do you think pinterest is stupid. 3 pinterest is very sociol so if the people you buy are not being sociol eg repining commenting etc you will get banned. Better to have 10 followers who are intrested in you then 100 who are not. DONOT BUY
Yes. I agreed with you @Cosmin. If we want to grow our business fast, then we should buy pinterest followers.
But should carefull about that the followers shouldn’t be fake. And Pinterest account should be at last 1 month old. I know a site whom serve real pinterest followers, http://epinterestfollowers.com
Thanks for the tips.
I’ve a question on the hashtags: If I want to hastag motivational quotes, do I put #motivationalquotes or #motivational quotes? I’ve seen some people join the 2 words, and I’ve seen others separate them. Which is better? Does it matter to the Pinterest search engine?
Thanks again!

Hi. I guess I must not go for the paid option, but I will increase my Pinterest followers naturally by following some of your helpful tips. Following Twitter principle can be a great way to increase followers too though hashtag is not yet officially used on Pinterest. Organizing boards, writing a good description and pinning images to the write boards can be so helpful!!!
Nice post.
I dont really agree with buying pins though. It totally contradicts no span in the previous point.
I see a lot of users gaining followers by following tens or hundreds of thousands of boards, but I dont think this is of use to anyone. Far better to use pinterest to collect the images you want and build quality boards. If you do this, followers will arrive.
