A few different ways to make money using Pinterest the easy way

1. You can make money using Pinterest by posting affiliate links directly to your Pinterest boards. If you are doing this, please make sure you are disclosing that it is an affiliate link. If you are not familiar with affiliate marketing and the rules, consider taking a course. Other than that, you can post a link directly to your affiliate product and when someone clicks on it, they are taken to a shop, or another site to complete the sale. For example, if you are a fashion blogger, you can link your favorite purse with a link that takes them directly to a checkout section or the store front. If you are mom blogger, you can link your amazon affiliate products to kids clothing or books etc. This is the best way of making money online especially with Pinterest. You might also like: How to make money in affiliate marketing in 24 hours using Pinterest.
