How to build a Pinterest strategy for your travel blog


Hi Reader,

If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your travel blog into an engine for consistent traffic — today’s video is for you. You can definitely get a lot of value from this video even if you're not a travel blogger but I do love an example.

In this week’s YouTube video, I’m walking through how I create a Pinterest strategy for a travel blog step by step… breaking down the most

You’ll see exactly how I:

  • Build out Pinterest boards for destinations, seasons, and trip styles
  • Choose keywords that match both Google and Pinterest intent
  • Decide how many pins per post I create (and which ones get text overlay)
  • Map out a repeatable workflow that keeps traffic growing long after I publish

Most bloggers focus on writing — but the visibility that comes next is where growth happens. Pinterest is how your posts get discovered by readers who are planning their next trip months in advance.

Watch the full breakdown here:

You’re a systems strategist for online coaches, and your offers are ClickUp templates, automations, and done for you setups. Those old boards? They don’t match your current business, content, or keywords. You could rename those boards or archive the old Pins, but what do you do when you want...

Hello Reader, When it comes to SEO, most bloggers think Google first.That’s fine until they try to apply the same rules on Pinterest. Here’s the truth: the two platforms share search principles, but not data.Tools like Keywords Everywhere (one of my personal Google favorites) pull their numbers from Google’s API — not Pinterest’s. That means the volume, difficulty, and suggestions you see are for Google search behavior, not for Pinterest users. Pinterest has its own ecosystem, its own user...
