New store.  I believe I have my store in good shape or perhaps not.  Now I'm ready to work on the Pinterest portion but I'm a bit confused.  I believe there are 2 options for pinning.  1 seems the easiest which is to click the Save to Pinterest button and put it on the appropriate board.  2 is to go to Pinterest and add the URL along with description and keywords.  Option 1 doesn't seem to give me the ability to put in description or keywords or am I missing something?  Which is the better option?  I have my boards set up in Pinterest with appropriate tags for each board.  Do I need to be tagging each pin?

I feel Option 2 is far superior and use that most of the time. I use Option 1 when I feel lazy or the product is not one I am expecting to be a raging success.

That was my thoughts.  Now my next question is if I have the same design on multiple products, should I post all the products or just a a couple?

Post only once for one LINK.  When you print the same design, onto a second product, that product has a new link. So go ahead and post that second product too. Best strategy is to keep your boards between 20 and 100 items. Name your board very well so that search can find what you are selling in there. When you hit 100 products, better to start a new board rather than keep adding to it.

Reason given: Most people are searching on phone. People will only scroll so far on a phone.  Many of my old boards do not follow the above ideas. I am trying to do a lot better with my new boards, like this one. https://www.pinterest.com/ArmchairTravelers/christmas-ornament-keepsakes-for-girls-and-boys/
