Once you are comfortable with
navigating Pinterest, see how
others are using it and have
learned how to repin and register a
like, it’s time for you to create your
own Pinterest Board. Just click the
Add+button on the top right-hand
corner of your navigation page to
create your new board. You will
then have to name your board,
for example Magnificent Homes
of San Jose, and then add a great
description of what’s being pinned
on your board. Something like this:
“Luxury homes below $900,000 in
Silicon Valley.” Once you’ve done
this, the next step is for you to
choose a category for your board
from existing categories, or to
create a new category.
When your board is up and
running, it’s a simple matter to
upload images of properties by just
clicking the Add+button. Once you
do this Pinterest will give you the
choice of either adding the pin to
an existing board or a new board.
When you’ve chosen, then click Pin
it. The beauty of Pinterest is that
it also allows you to pin videos.
You just click on the video link you
want to pin and then hit the Pin
It button. You’ll find your boards
are simple to navigate and it’s also
easy to edit or delete any of your
pins with just a few clicks of your
mouse.
