20 Reasons You Need to be on Pinterest

I became addicted to Pinterest about 3 weeks ago. My friend Vera Sweeney had been trying to get me on, but I just had never sat down to try it out. It’s funny because I had heard Ben (co-founder of Pinterest… oh, yes the Ben!) speak at the Lucky FABB Conference in September about pinning and boards and creating collections of your favorite things, but still… I didn’t get my butt in gear.

Well, I have now.

And I cannot get enough!

10 Reasons You Need to be on Pinterest…

1. You can create as many BOARDS as you want… right now I have 14 Boards – Home, Fashion, Makeup, Travel, Halloween, etc…

2. You are able to Follow your friends from Twitter and Facebook.

3. There’s no self-promotion on Pinterest, it’s all about you and your pins!

4. Everyone’s NICE! It’s so refreshing!

5. You can pin as many things as you want in a day!

6. You get so many ideas for decorating, fashion, food and travel… it’s SO MUCH inspiration!

7. It’s a modern day Vision Board.

8. You can source your pins… so if there’s something on MomGenerations.com I want to share, I can
source it. Great way to link back to your site. (You just can’t abuse this!)

9. The content is CLEAN… you don’t have to worry about anything being X-rated.

10. You can literally bypass all Home/Food/Fashion Magazines and just pull and create from the pins you see on the boards. They’re fabulous!

And a bonus reason?

11. All your friends are going to join eventually…
