Pinterest Pin

A Pinterest Pin is a visual bookmark that users save to their boards, typically consisting of an image or video that links back to its original source. Pins are the fundamental unit of content on Pinterest and serve as both discovery tools and traffic drivers. Each Pin contains a visual (optimally 2:3 aspect ratio), a title, a description, a destination link, and attribution to the original creator. Pinterest has evolved to support multiple Pin formats: standard Pins (static images), Video Pins (auto-play videos), Idea Pins (multi-page tutorials and stories), Product Pins (shoppable with pricing), and Rich Pins (auto-updating data from websites). For marketers, creating pinnable content requires understanding what resonates on the platform: vertical images with text overlays, infographics, step-by-step tutorials, recipes, fashion lookbooks, and inspirational quotes consistently perform well. Key metrics for Pin performance include impressions, saves, close-ups (zooming to see details), and outbound clicks.
