Pinterest is a social discovery app that’s available on the web and
mobile devices as well, people all around the globe can use this service
to discover, collect, share, and store images for free. However, free
storage and image sharing is definitely not what the site is all about,
its true objective is to “discover and save ideas on Pinterest” so that
you can use them later to find inspiration for your own projects.
After creating an account you can pin any image that you want to save
on the web or right there on Pinterest.com. Pins are basically visual
bookmarks, they are better known as “Pin Boards”, and the best thing
about them is that you can add anything you want to your boards by
pinning images you like. Once you’ve gathered enough images, you can
proceed to organize them however you want. Keep in mind that “Pins” can
be organized by theme or topic, so make sure to create well thought out
pin boards that allow users to easily find what they’re looking for,
that way you’ll get more followers, and you will also help improve the
site’s experience for users.
