Sharing is Caring 🤗

Tracking helps you ↴
✅ Spot which designs, headlines, and CTAs drive real traffic✅ Know which boards are bringing you clicks — and which ones need a refresh✅ Test new ideas on purpose — not by accident


Here’s what really matters — Pinterest gives you a lot of shiny numbers, but you don’t need them all.

Focus on ↴

Impressions: How many people saw your Pin?✅ Saves: Did they think it was good enough to keep?✅ Outbound Clicks: The gold standard — did they click your link?✅ Top Boards: Which boards send you the most traffic?✅ Top Pins: Which images, headlines, and CTAs do best?

The CTA ‘Would You?’ Test

Pull up 3 of your Pins and ask:
👉 If you were your dream client, would you click this?👉 Does the CTA tell you exactly what happens next?👉 Is it clear why they should click NOW instead of later?

If your CTA is just ‘Read More’ — try ‘Read More + Get the Freebie’ or ‘Read More + Save This.’ It’s one tiny word, but it can make a massive difference.

Use this test before you schedule new Pins — your future clicks will thank you.
