Hey Reader,

Let’s have an honest chat about something that gets way less attention than it should—Pinterest board covers.

If you're thinking, “Do board covers even matter anymore?” you’re not alone. The answer? Not in the way they used to—but yes, they still matter. Here’s why:

Visual hierarchy and brand recall​
​
Pinterest is a visual search engine. That means every element of your profile is working to either build trust or lose it. Custom board covers help your audience understand your content at a glance—and know they’re in the right place.
​
​Strategic branding = strategic positioning​
​
You’ve got 3 seconds to make an impression. A consistent, cohesive brand look across your boards makes your profile feel more polished and trustworthy—which can influence whether someone sticks around, follows you, or clicks on your links.
​
​They support your board strategy, not replace it​
​
Let’s be clear: board covers don’t make up for bad board strategy. But if you already have optimized titles, keywords, and Pins, a clean board cover setup is the cherry on top.

👉 I break it all down in my new blog post + video tutorial:
