How I Grew My Pinterest Monthly Views to 10 million & exploded my blog traffic {Podcast Ep. 326}

If you aren’t blogging yet, what are you even doing with your life? This post is going to show you why you should totally start a blog and how you can use Pinterest to get your traffic to explode.

POV: It’s a beautiful, sunny and crisp fall morning, you’re sitting at your favorite local coffee shop, where a quiet day of writing and a soothing ambiance awaits you–it’s your only priority today. Just another regular Tuesday. Isn’t life so blissful?

Listen to episode 326 of the Blissfully Ambitious podcast to go along with this episode:

This year, I will celebrate 15 years of blogging. It’s the longest job I’ve ever had and it’s also my favorite job I’ve ever had. Who knew that back in 2008 after deciding to start a blog about my favorite hobby, decorating the home, my entire life would completely change and I would be living my dream life. Blogging did that for me and can absolutely do that for you. If you’ve been wanting to start your own blog you should read this post.

Here’s the thing, if you start a blog it gives you the opportunity to create a platform for you to launch a business, side hustle or set up some income streams to grow your income. OR if you already have a business, a blog will help you market, share and grow your business. The possibilities a blog can give you are limitless.

Whether you have a blog or not, I am sure you are familiar with Pinterest. It’s one of the most exciting places to be right now when it comes to online marketing and online business.

In the past few years, I’ve taken a much more feminine approach to business. So, anything that drains me or brings me stress just isn’t for me. Social media is one of those things that I’ve majorly cut back focus on, simply because it tends to overwhelm me.

Especially if you are just starting out and trying to grow your blog and/or online business audience, social media can feel incredibly overwhelming.

Enter my new favorite online marketing tool….Pinterest.

And let me to tell you: THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO TO LIVE THAT LOW-KEY, SLOW LIVING LIFESTYLE YOU CRAVE IS INVEST IN YOUR ONLINE BUSINESS’ PINTEREST STRATEGY.

I just wish I had started sooner. Seriously.

Just imagine…

• Waking up to money directly depositing to your bank account, thanks to the delicious, never-ending stream of traffic you’ve generated on auto-pilot.

• Building the quiet, peaceful life of your dreams without selling your soul to the current social media algorithm or dancing on camera just to build an audience.

• Creating a solid and sustainable process of marketing your business that doesn’t involve cold e-mails, sleazy networking strategies, or spending hours trying to come up with the perfect “hook”.

Exactly 3 months ago, I found myself completely cutting myself off from social media, it was incredibly distracting to my mindset and stress levels. So, out of desperation to find something more fulfilling yet productive in online marketing, I decided to take a new approach to growing my blog traffic.

I moved my focus towards generating traffic growth through Pinterest. In less than 45 days, I grew my monthly Pinterest views to 6.5 million and exploded my blog traffic.

Update for 2024: I am now at 10+ million monthly views

WHY PINTEREST?

The thing about Pinterest, is that similarly to Google, Pinterest is a search engine, not a social media tool. People who are on Pinterest, are there on purpose, searching something that they are looking for.

Instagram and Tiktok tend to be places where you visit for inspiration without focus. When a consumer is on Pinterest, they are looking to learn, research, plan and purchase on a specific topic. This is a very distinct difference in the mindset of the people who come across your content on various online marketing channels.

On other social media platforms, you’re looking to reach people. On Pinterest, people are looking to find you and find solutions to their problems.

In addition to this, when you create content for Pinterest, if you include highly searchable keywords (which I teach you specifically inside my Power of Pinterest workshop), your pins will appear when people are searching for what it is they are looking for.

WHY BLOG CONTENT SHOULD BE PART OF YOUR PROFITABLE PINTEREST STRATEGY:

If we take a look at a platform like Instagram, one piece of content typically lasts for about 24 hours and then goes buried to a backlog feed. Pinterest posts are highly relevant and searchable for at least 6 months, which gets you much more out of your time and energy when it comes to content creation.

Once I realized the power of Pinterest, I turned my focus completely on Pinterest and gave it my full attention. The great thing about Pinterest is that with just some time, focus and attention you can completely see growth and exposure to your content blog and/or business in a short amount of time.

How you can use Pinterest & a BLOG to make money online (6 STEPS):

STEP ONE: Start a blog and create helpful and engaging content (like a long form blog post) that compels users to click and learn. Focus on solution oriented content. Be sure to use the keyword search strategies that I teach inside of this workshop to help you create content that people are searching for. Pinterest also has free tools like Pinterest trends that can help you.

STEP TWO: Add affiliate links to the blog post, like Amazon affiliates (you will get paid a commission) and/or add links to the products and services you are selling so that your user can purchase from you.

STEP THREE: Add on a display ad agency like Google Adsense or She Media (apply here) that will pay you based on the amount of traffic you get to your blog.

STEP FOUR: Set up your Pinterest account properly. Turn your personal Pinterest account into a business account instead of creating a new one. You want to do this so that you aren’t starting from scratch, Pinterest prefers aged accounts.

Then you need to fill out your profile completely, including most recent headshot or logo. Add a good description of what your company does. Add what you are passionate about and what you love to Pin. This will help Pinners find and connect with you. Don’t forget to include your website address in your profile. You’ll also need that to verify your site, which you must do to access your Analytics.

STEP FIVE: Get busy creating graphics that compel users to click and be led to the content. This is an example of one of my highest converting pins. Link these pins to your blog content or newsletter opt in.

You can create for ANY kind of business. Here are some examples:

A home decor blogger can tailor their bio and profile to include keywords like “cozy interior inspiration” or “DIY home projects.”

• Action Tip: Include a clear call-to-action in your profile, like “Follow for weekly home decor ideas!”

• Why It Works: Your Pinterest profile acts as a storefront, so make it clear what you offer and who it’s for.

A wellness coach can create Idea Pins on “5 Morning Habits to Boost Energy” or “Quick Meditation for Stress Relief.”

• Action Tip: Use Idea Pins to share tutorials, tips, or a step-by-step guide without needing a link—these build authority and attract followers.

• Why It Works: Pinterest prioritizes Idea Pins, and they help you connect with your audience while encouraging saves and shares.

A small business selling handmade candles can pin product photos with titles like “The Best Relaxing Candle Scents for Cozy Nights.”

• Action Tip: Ensure every pin links to a blog post, product page, or relevant landing page—make clicking irresistible!

• Why It Works: Traffic to your blog or site equals potential leads, sales, or readers.

A podcast host can include a bio like “Your go-to podcast for self-improvement tips and inspiring interviews” and link directly to their website or podcast landing page.

1. Tip: Include a clear call-to-action, like “Listen now for weekly tips on personal growth!”

2. Why It Works: People on Pinterest are searching for solutions, you can create pins with solutions and link to your podcast.

STEP SIX: Create a consistent posting strategy. You can use the built in Pinterest pre-scheduling service & plan your posting ahead of time. In my experience, consistent daily Pinterest activity is best. I share my exact strategy inside my course, Power of Pinterest.

I hope you enjoyed this post. If you have any questions or helpful tips, share them in the comments below.

How to Master the Law of Assumption: 25 Neville Goddard Quotes to Transform Your Life

The journey to personal growth and achievement often begins with how we view ourselves and the beliefs we hold. Affirmations, manifestation, and the law of assumption are powerful tools that enable us to reshape our beliefs and attract the life we desire.

At the heart of this transformative approach is Neville Goddard, a spiritual teacher known for his teachings on the mind's ability to shape reality. Neville Goddard is celebrated as one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the 20th century, renowned for his transformative teachings on manifestation, the power of the imagination, and the law of assumption.

Born in Barbados and raised in a Christian family, Neville moved to the United States in his late teens, where he discovered the profound connection between spirituality and personal empowerment.

Over the years, he developed a philosophy that blended biblical wisdom with metaphysical concepts, empowering people to shape their reality through mental focus and belief.

At the heart of Neville’s teachings is the belief that imagination is the creative force in our lives. Through disciplined use of imagination—what he called "assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled"—he taught that anyone can achieve their goals, manifest their desires, and live a life of abundance and purpose.

His concept of the "law of assumption" encourages individuals to fully embody their desires as if they have already come true, thereby setting in motion the events needed to realize those desires.

With simple yet profound insights, Neville emphasized that each of us has the power to reshape our reality from within, and his teachings continue to inspire millions around the world on their journey of self-empowerment and manifestation.

My favorite books to help you learn Neville Goddard’s teachings: I highly recommend that you immerse yourself in these books as much as possible to fill your mind with the powerful wisdom and knowledge that will completely transform your life.

The Power of Imagination: The Neville Goddard Treasury - I have this book sitting on my nightstand and I carry it around with me as much as possible. It will help you understand how the mind and your imagination works for you.

Feeling is the Secret - This was the first Neville Book I read, it’s a short read but very powerful.

The Power Of Your Awareness - I love this book! It’s just a very helpful reminder of how what we are giving attention to creates our reality.

Understanding Manifestation

Manifestation is the practice of consciously creating your reality through thoughts, emotions, and actions. By focusing on what you want and aligning your energy toward it, you set powerful intentions that guide you toward achieving your goals. Manifestation, however, isn’t simply about wishing; it’s about believing that your goals are achievable and taking inspired actions to bring them to life.

The Power of Affirmations

Affirmations are positive statements that, when repeated with conviction, can help replace limiting beliefs with empowering ones. They work by training your subconscious to recognize new truths about yourself and your world.

When you declare affirmations like “I am worthy of love and success,” you’re reinforcing a new belief system that directly influences your actions and, ultimately, your results. Read these 30 affirmations for wealth that I use.

The Law of Assumption

Neville Goddard’s teachings emphasize the “law of assumption,” which is the belief that whatever you assume to be true will eventually become your reality. Unlike traditional “law of attraction” ideas that focus on wanting, the law of assumption centers on being. When you assume the state of the person who has already achieved your desires, you begin to embody the mindset, habits, and actions of that person, aligning yourself with your goals.

As Goddard himself taught, “Assume you are what you want to be, and you will become it.” This shift in perspective puts you in the driver’s seat of your life, empowering you to consciously create the reality you desire.

How to Use These Principles in Your Life:

1. Affirm Daily: Start each day with affirmations that align with your goals. This practice reprograms your subconscious mind, helping to replace doubt with confidence.

2. Visualize with Intention: Spend a few minutes each day visualizing your desires as if they’re already true. Engage your senses to make the experience feel real, connecting deeply with the feeling of fulfillment.

3. Assume the State of Your Desired Self: Embrace the law of assumption by embodying the mindset and actions of the person you want to become. Imagine how this version of yourself would feel, act, and think, and start behaving accordingly.

4. Create a Routine of Reflection: Reflect on one of Neville Goddard’s quotes each day and ask yourself how you can apply it. This deepens your understanding of these concepts and helps you stay aligned with your goals.

5. Be Patient and Persistent: Transforming your reality is a gradual process that requires patience and faith. When challenges arise, return to these quotes for encouragement and stay committed to your practice.

Final Thoughts

The combination of affirmations, manifestation, and the law of assumption is a powerful path to self-empowerment. As Neville Goddard emphasized, we each have the potential to shape our world by assuming the state we desire. Let these principles be the guiding forces in your journey to a more fulfilled and purposeful life. Remember, the only limits are those you set in your mind.

As you step forward, repeat these quotes, reinforce your beliefs, and watch as you turn your dreams into reality.
