Practical guide

Write pin descriptions that get found

A pin description has room for 500 characters, but the opening is what appears in most views. Describe what the pin shows and what the viewer will get from the link.

Because pins are discovered through search, natural keywords matter more than hashtags. Use the counter to keep the description complete without padding it.

Pro tips

Pro tips for Pinterest posts

Search words come first

Pinterest works like a search engine. Put the words people would search for near the start of the description.

Titles are shorter

Pin titles have a much lower limit than descriptions, so check the title separately.
