How to Use Original Polyvore Sets to Drive Traffic to Your Website or Blog
| You have been thoroughly schooled in all things Pinterest and all things Polyvore. You now have all the tools you need to create original content imagery that will serve to bring traffic to your website. Let's walk through the entire process of posting a Polyvore set to your site, and then pinning it on Pinterest. Step One Start by Creating Original Website Content In order to bring traffic to your website, you need to continuously create new content for that website. A blog is a fantastic way to do that. Let's assume that most of our readers have a blog connected to their business website or maintain a blog exclusively. You are in a coffee shop, and today's task is to create a new blog post for your website or blog. You work for a non-profit that educates the public on the importance of eating organic and local produce. You decide today's content will be related to Earth Day since that is seasonally appropriate. Start either by writing up your verbal content, or by first creating a visual collage in Polyvore. One may inform the other. Feel free to go back and forth between Polyvore and Microsoft Word as you draft your blog entry and create a corresponding visual set in Polyvore. For an example of a Blog Post about Motivating Fitness, see here: http://www.polyvore.com/fitness....7756428 For more ideas on how to create these corresponding Polyvore sets and blog posts, see Chapter 14. Step Two Post Your New Polyvore Set to your Blog Once you have published your set, copy Polyvore's provided html coding to embed the image in your blog post. Example: Look at the April 24, 2012 blog post here to see how a Polyvore set looks as a blog post: http://www.i-dig-bikram-yoga.com/bikram-yoga-blog.html Step Three Pin Your Image Once your blog post has been published, go to your website as though you were a visitor. Find the new blog post with your Polyvore set. Click the Pin It button that you have previously installed in your bookmark bar, and Pin your set to Pinterest. See how the Fitness example looks on Pinterest, after it has been pinned from the blog: http://pinterest.com/pin/168251736049101671/ Step Four Monitor Watch for repins, new followers and click throughs to your site. Through your website's analytic software, you will be able to see what traffic has been generated from which pins at Pinterest. Note which sets and which pins are most successful. Study what works and why, and then recreate your success with new sets and pins that will continue driving traffic to your site or blog. Source: Pinterest Traffic | |
