I discover the Pinterest as traffic source six month ago when the Google banned one of my websites.

The Pinterest is easy to use and the good results become visible in few days after you start to use it daily.
Anyway, if you properly use it the traffic from Pinterest will be much bigger than from Google +.

User access to Pinterest still operates under an invitation-only basis. You can click “Request an Invite,” or ask a friend who already has a Pinterest account to invite you. If you don’t know any Pinterest user you can let a comment and I’ll send you an invite.

Use Twitter account to sign in not Facebook, as Pinterest doesn’t offer a connection to Facebook business pages and, trust me, you don’t want to link your Pinterest account to your personal Facebook profile.

How to use Pinterest for traffic in ten easy steps:

1. As on any Social Media please don’t spam it.
2. Follow max 150 users/day but not less 50 users/day.
3. Make interesting comments on others pins on your niche.
4. Don’t be cheap with likes or repine on others pins.
5. Don’t pin only your websites links. People will notice fast that you are on Pinterest to make traffic for your website not to socialize.
6. Read and respect Pinerest Etiquette
7. Add the Pinterest “Follow” Button to your website and Pinterest “Pin It” Button to your all articles
8. Try to create the best board on a topic and users’ pins to it, also.
9. Don’t forget: Pinterest is all about visual . So use it to promote your business by your best visual content. If you don’t have visuals, pay someone to make a very good visual creative to symbolize your idea.
10. Host a contest (ex: coolest board on your niche topic wins a prize).

I hope that advises will help you to be popular on Pinterest and promote your business. If you have any questions about Pinterest please let a comment below!

From my experience the TOP 5 traffic sources in 2012 are:

1. Google search – In 2012 is still number one but a lot of website are affected by new Google searching algorithm. So, you cannot put all eggs in Google basket. Not anymore. You must have a backup plan in case of Google ban your website.

2. Facebook – We need a lot of fans to get traffic from Facebook. Or you must be lucky to make a viral.

3. Twitter – One word: followers. You need a tons of followers to bring traffic from Twitter to your website.

4. Youtube – Still a good source of traffic if you wise use it.
