Enabling Rich Pins makes your pins more eye-catching and informative by displaying extra details like title, price, description, and a link to your Pinterest profile.
This will result in a better user experience and increase the chances of people saving and sharing your content.
Plus, if you use the Pin button on your website, you don’t need to fill in title, description, or link—it’ll all be added automatically! All you need to do is pick the board you want to pin to, and that’s it.
There are three types of Rich Pins for articles, products, and recipes.
For artists wanting to sell their work, Product Rich Pins are the most important. If you run an art blog, you’ll also benefit from Article Rich Pins.
To enable Rich Pins, you first need to claim your website. Your website cannot be a subdomain (like https://myartistsite.wix.com) or an Etsy shop. It must be a website that you actually own, such as on Squarespace, Pixpa, or Shopify.
Once your website is verified, the URL will appear on your profile, accompanied by the symbol of a globe with a little check mark.
In the search results, your Rich Pins will then appear with pin title, your profile picture and username, and a short preview of the pin description. This is great because people will recognize you and your art right away. It helps build trust and makes them more likely to buy from you!
Plus, Rich Pins will automatically sync information from your site. For example, if you make changes to a blog post, your Article Rich Pins will reflect those edits.
