Top 3 Reasons to start using Pinterest as a Blogger

This year one of the hottest thing on the web is Pinterest. It has been growing very rapidly. The idea behind Pinterest is pretty simple. It's basically a collection of all your favorite online images. Using the "Pin It" button users pin their favorite images into a single or multiple Pinboards.

A New Way for People to Follow You!

It's always a great feeling when someone follows you. Having more followers reflects a very positive image to those you visits your blog for the first time, plus it makes them follow you. Having a profile for your blog at Pinterest, which is the new and the most trendy social network out there, would make your readers follow you in a new way.

Installing the Pinterest Follow Buttons on your blog would make it easy for your readers to follow.

Showcase You Categories in Different Pinboards!

The thing I love the most about Pinterest is the "Pinboard" concept. You create different Pinboards and under each Pinboard you have a collection of pins. Your readers, when land on your Pinterest Profile, would find out different categories (Pinboards) and they would have the option to follow all or any one of them individually. In my case, I've showcased some major categories of my blog in different categories i.e Blogger Widgets, Tips etc. Now my readers can follow any individual Pinboard or all of them at the same time.
