7 Ways to Build a Successful Blog with Pinterest in 2015 Pinterest wasn't around when I had my blog, www.diysanctuary.com. It could have helped me drive traffic in so many ways.

They want visually appealing and interesting content for their boards. Repin regularly and often. Also (heart) others pins to encourage mutual exposure
