• Food, catering, restaurants. Pinterest users love repinning tempting images of food. Feature your culinary content and recipes on Pinterest to bring traffic and new deals your way.
• Event planning. Showcase the amazing events you've created, pinning Pinterest posts that show off the food, favors, and everything else you arranged for the festivities.
• Home decor. Pinterest users enjoy topics like organization, home decor, and interior design. If you're a housekeeping brand, you could post your organizing secrets, tips, and tricks to gain views and saves. 
• Consumer goods. Many people rely on Pinterest for ideas and inspiration in fashion, beauty, DIY projects, and household items. Leverage this activity and bring attention to your goods.

Infogram's Pinterest post maker allows you to create engaging pins in just 5 steps:

1. Log in to Infogram.
2. Click on the Social media icon in the shortcut bar at the top of the library.

It's recommended to stick to a 2:3 aspect ratio (for example, 1000 x 1500 pixels). But here's the great news: With Infogram, you don't need to worry about the size of your Pinterest post. Just head over to our Pinterest post creator, pick any of our templates, or create a pin using a blank template – and your project will automatically be in the right size fit for publishing on Pinterest. 

How do I add an image to my Pinterest post?

• Click the Add Graphics button in the left-side toolbar.
• Browse the vast and free-to-use image, icon, flag, GIF, and sticker library or click on My Uploads to upload a photo.

Click on Upload and choose a file from your computer, or alternatively drag and drop the image file from your computer right into Infogram's editor. The file will automatically be uploaded to the graphics gallery.

Here are some guiding principles that will help you create pins that look really good:

• Use high-quality images. Images in Pinterest posts are one of the vital aspects of a pin. Make sure you pick an eye-catching, vertical image that will stand out in people's feeds. 
• Focus on your brand. Put your product or service front and center. Add a subtle logo on every pin you post.
• Add text overlays. A text overlay is the copy that goes on your Pinterest post image. Use concise text to make your pins stand out, add context, and enhance your message. 

Be bold. Literally – use bold for any text you want to stand out against the rest of your copy.
