The 3 Second Pin Test

When you finish a Pin design, look at it on your phone and ask:
👉 In 3 seconds, can I tell exactly what this Pin is about?👉 Do I know what I’ll get if I click?👉 Is the text easy to read — even when I’m squinting at it small?

If not — tweak it until the answer’s yes. Your audience scrolls fast — you get 3 seconds to win them over.


Pin & Plan Tip of the Week:

📌 Create One Pin, Test Three Headlines

Next time you make a Pin, don’t stop at one title. Write 3 different headlines for the same idea, and Pin them all.

You’ll see which one actually gets the clicks — and it’s often not the one you think! Pinterest rewards fresh variations, so this is SEO-friendly, too.
