Pinterest has become a popular platform for users to discover, save, and share ideas and inspiration. From recipes to DIY projects, it’s a go-to place for people looking for inspiration and new ideas. It has also become a popular platform for affiliate marketers to promote and sell products. However, there are reasons why Pinterest may not be the best platform for affiliate marketing.
To start with, Pinterest’s algorithm is not particularly friendly to affiliate links. Pinterest’s algorithm favors original content and discourages users from posting too many links to external websites, including affiliate links. This means that if you are an affiliate marketer looking to promote products on Pinterest, you may have a hard time getting your pins seen by others.
Furthermore, Pinterest is not the best platform for making direct sales. While Pinterest is great for driving traffic to your website, it is not as effective when it comes to converting that traffic into sales. Unlike platforms like Instagram, where users are more likely to make a purchase directly from a post, Pinterest users are more focused on finding inspiration and saving ideas for later.
Another issue with using Pinterest for affiliate marketing is that it can be time-consuming and requires a lot of effort to succeed. In order to get your pins seen by others, you need to create high-quality, visually appealing content that stands out from the crowd. This can be a lot of work, especially if you are managing multiple affiliate products.
Additionally, Pinterest has strict guidelines when it comes to affiliate marketing. It requires users to disclose their affiliate relationships in all pins that contain affiliate links, which can be a turn-off for some users. Moreover, Pinterest has been known to shut down accounts that are deemed to be in violation of their guidelines, so it’s important to proceed with caution when using the platform for affiliate marketing.
While Pinterest can be a great platform for driving traffic to your website and increasing brand awareness, it may not be the best platform for direct affiliate marketing. It requires a lot of effort and compliance with strict guidelines, and the algorithm is not particularly friendly to affiliate links. If you are an affiliate marketer looking to promote products, it may be worth exploring other platforms that are more suitable for direct sales and affiliate marketing.

Hi Jacob
I’ve emailed and DM’d you without a response?
Been on pintrest since July with no sales, more than 1 account, promoting different niches….nothing. I love that it's super easy to use.
I honestly believe this as well I have so many followers & views & & clicks but no sells. I think it’s time to move onto a different platform
Good
Idea pin?
Pinterest is repetitive. Been trying it for the past couple weeks, promoting links, and still no luck. Only 2 clicks and no sales.
Pinterest takes time and you gotta be on it
