A typical search in Pinterest returns results populated by <a href=\"https:\/\/tailwindapp.com\/blog\/pinterest-smart-feed-pin-visibility\">a complicated algorithm,<\/a>&nbsp;meaning, your Pins might not appear in the feed or search results as soon as they&#8217;re Pinned.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-11697\">\n<figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-05-at-5.02.32-PM.png\" alt=\"A Pinterest Search for Kid-friendly Food\" class=\"wp-image-11697 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A regular Pinterest Search for Kid-friendly Food<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>A hashtag search occurs when a Pinner searches for a hashtag in the search bar or clicks on a hashtag in a Pin description. Pinterest will then return the freshest Pins using that hashtag.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-11699\">\n<figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hashtagresults.png\" alt=\"A Pinterest Search for #kidfriendlyfood\" class=\"wp-image-11699 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A Pinterest Search for #kidfriendlyfood<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-use-hashtags-on-pinterest\">How to Use Hashtags on Pinterest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/help.pinterest.com\/en\/articles\/hashtags-pinterest-partners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pinterest&#8217;s help files<\/a> suggest using &#8221; a few&#8221; &#8220;specific and descriptive&#8221; hashtags per Pin. Hashtags will only function in Pin descriptions, so don&#8217;t use them anywhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because hashtag searches are looking for the freshest Pins, you should use a mix of evergreen and time-sensitive hashtags. For instance, if your Pin features a healthy Christmas treat recipe, use time-sensitive hashtags such as: #christmastreats #christmasrecipes OR some timeless tags such as: #healthysnacks #healthydesserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your hashtags to two per Pin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that you&#8217;re trying to help people who are interested in your content find your content. You&#8217;re not trying to hijack a popular hashtag to trick people into finding your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boost Your Pinterest Strategy with Tailwind\u2019s Keyword Finder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashtags may not be as effective on Pinterest, but keywords are essential for getting your content discovered. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/pinterest-marketing\/tools\/keyword-finder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tailwind\u2019s Keyword Finder Tool<\/a> helps you identify the exact terms your audience is searching for, so your Pins and boards rank higher in search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skip the hashtags and focus on what works\u2014targeted keywords that drive traffic. Start using Tailwind\u2019s Keyword Finder today and take your Pinterest strategy to the next level!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-choose-the-right-hashtags-for-pinterest\">How to Choose the Right Hashtags for Pinterest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashtag strategy is important for any social channel. And while we&#8217;ve published extensively about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/instagram\/hashtag-finder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ways to find the best Instagram hashtags<\/a>, the truth is, for Pinterest, we&#8217;re all figuring it out together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, Pinterest does help us out with hashtag suggestions. When editing your Pin description, start typing in a hashtag that makes sense for the Pin. You&#8217;ll see suggestions for similar hashtags along with the number of Pins already using that hashtag.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-11700\">\n<figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-05-at-5.15.52-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11700 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pinterest makes hashtag suggestions and shows how many Pins use the hashtag.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Note: Based on my own (albeit limited) use of hashtags on Pinterest and the fluctuation in numbers and results I&#8217;ve seen, this count doesn&#8217;t appear to be a total of all Pins that EVER used that hashtag. It could be that this is a count of all the &#8220;fresh&#8221; Pins using that hashtag or perhaps all the Pins that will show up in search results. Regardless, it will give you some idea of the popularity of the hashtag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/instagram\/hashtag-finder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram hashtags<\/a>, you should use a mix of popular and more niche hashtags to increase your chances of discovery. Don&#8217;t go too broad (&#8220;#pinterest,&#8221; and &#8220;#blogging&#8221; for example, are a mess). Instead get more specific and relevant (#pinterestmarketing&#8221;, or &#8220;#bloggingtips&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"dpsp-click-to-tweet dpsp-style-1 dpsp-click-to-tweet-cta-left\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Think%20like%20a%20Pinner%20and%20ask%2C%20%27Would%20I%20be%20happy%20seeing%20this%20Pin%20in%20my%20results%20for%20that%20hashtag%3F&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tailwindapp.com%2Fblog%2Fhow-to-use-hashtags-on-pinterest\">\n\t\t<span class=\"dpsp-click-to-tweet-content\">\n\t\tWhen choosing hashtags for Pinterest, think like a Pinner and ask yourself, 'Would I be happy seeing this Pin in the results for that hashtag search? \t<\/span>\n\n\t<span class=\"dpsp-click-to-tweet-footer\">\n\t\t<span class=\"dpsp-click-to-tweet-cta\">\n\t\t<span>Click to Tweet<\/span>\t\t<i class=\"dpsp-network-btn dpsp-twitter\">\n\t\t<span class=\"dpsp-network-icon\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"dpsp-network-icon-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewBox=\"0 0 32 28\"><path d=\"M25.2,1.5h4.9l-10.7,12.3,12.6,16.7h-9.9l-7.7-10.1-8.8,10.1H.6l11.5-13.1L0,1.5h10.1l7,9.2L25.2,1.5ZM23.5,27.5h2.7L8.6,4.3h-2.9l17.8,23.2Z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/i>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n<\/a>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Ask yourself, too,<em>&#8220;What hashtags might I search if I wanted to find a Pin like this one?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-should-i-put-my-hashtags-on-pinterest\">Where Should I Put my Hashtags on Pinterest?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashtags only function within your Pins&#8217; descriptions. But, should hashtags be scattered throughout your Pin description, or be placed at the end of your description?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The location of your hashtags inside the Pin description appears to have no impact on their functionality. So, it&#8217;s a matter of personal preference. But, when people are reading MY description, I don&#8217;t want them to click away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that reason, I&#8217;ll put the hashtags at the bottom of my description. I want them to make me appear in search, but not distract my viewers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s always a good idea to write for humans first and search engines second. Pinterest Pins are no exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-should-i-add-hashtags-to-old-pins\">Should I Add Hashtags to Old Pins?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some bloggers who have been using Pinterest for years worry that they&#8217;re not at a disadvantage for having followed Pinterest&#8217;s advice NOT to use hashtags. But by surfacing only the FRESHEST hashtagged Pins in search, Pinterest has our backs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, there&#8217;s no need to go back over all 20 thousand of your Pins, or even the Pins that lead back to your own content. Those old Pins would likely not surface in a hashtag search anyway since it&#8217;s looking for the &#8220;freshest&#8221; Pins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, use hashtags from now on.\u00a0And go back and Pin your own content to your boards and to any Group Boards you might belong to again with hashtagged descriptions. <a href=\"https:\/\/help.tailwindapp.com\/article\/71-how-to-interval-pin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tailwind&#8217;s Interval Pinning can save you hours of time in this process<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-about-hashtags-and-promoted-pins-pinterest-ads\">What About Hashtags and Promoted Pins (Pinterest ads)?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashtags do not help or hurt Promoted Pins. Promoted Pins don&#8217;t appear in hashtag search results. At least, not yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only change in relation to Promoted Pins is that you are no longer limited to one hashtag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, one of the great things about Promoted Pins is that people tend to Save (repin) them. So, to get those repins into hashtag search, use hashtags in your Promoted Pins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you want to be found on Pinterest, start using hashtags now and keep using them to surface your freshest Pins in hashtag results!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pin me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/pinterest-how-to-use-hashtags-on-pinterest-200x300.png\" alt=\"How to Use Hashtags on Pinterest #pintereststrategy #pinterestmarketing #pinteresttips #marketingstrategy #hashtags\" class=\"wp-image-11706 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 200\/300;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maximize your Pinterest strategy with the use of hashtags and targeted keywords.
