Want to learn how to do Pinterest keyword research? Congratulations! Your Pinterest marketing is headed in the right direction – since Pinterest is a visual search engine, you need Pinterest SEO.

I remember when I was a newbie Pinterest VA managing my first account. My pins performed well, but then I caught wind of how adding keywords could make a difference – so I decided to do some keyword research.

I started adding keywords into my title and descriptions – and lo and behold…

I had my first VIRAL PIN!

 I had discovered the power of Pinterest SEO! And I was very excited to start using keywords in ALL my pins.
 
So…now that you know that you should be adding keywords to your Pinterest pins, how do you know which keywords to use? Where do you find them? Today’s your lucky day, because I am going to teach you 2 easy ways to do Pinterest keywords research.

#1 Method to Do Pinterest Keywords Research

The first method is stupid simple. You can do Pinterest keyword research directly on Pinterest using the Pinterest search bar. This is a great way to find long-tail keywords for your pin titles and descriptions.

When you type in a keyword, Pinterest will automatically give you suggestions of more words to add to that keyword to narrow down your search. These suggestions are long-tail keywords. You can use these keywords in your pin titles and descriptions to target the people who are searching for those specifics (as long as the long tail keywords are still relevant to the content the pin is linked to).

It’s very important that you don’t stuff irrelevant keywords in your pins! Pinterest doesn’t like this! 

As long as the keywords and long-tail keywords are still relevant to your pin and the content it’s linked to – then you can add a bunch of these keywords in your title and description.
