Personal vs. Business Account

Before you post a single video, you need to make a choice. Posting commercial links (properties for sale) on a Personal account is against Pinterest's Terms of Service and limits your reach.

❌ Personal Account

✕ Risk of Ban: Selling properties violates personal use policies.
✕ No Analytics: You can't see which properties are getting clicks.
✕ Lower Trust: Pinterest may hide your links if they look spammy.

✅ Business Account (Free)

✓ Safe Selling: Explicitly allowed to promote properties.
✓ Full Analytics: See exactly how many people clicked your listing link.
✓ Conversion Insights: Track your growth.

*Converting to a Business account is free and takes 30 seconds in your Pinterest settings. Do this first.

⚠️ WARNING: The "Link Dumping" Trap

Do not upload 20 videos in one hour.

Pinterest has aggressive spam filters. If you upload too many Pins with external links in a short period, they will "Shadowban" your account (your Pins will get 0 views).

The Safe Strategy:

New Accounts: Post max 1-3 videos per day.
Established Accounts: Post max 5-10 videos per day.
Spread them out: Schedule your posts or wait a few hours between uploads. consistency beats volume.

How to Create a "Video Pin"

1
Upload the Video
Click Create Pin and upload the vertical MP4 file you downloaded from VidFlipper. Video Pins get 3x more engagement than static photos because they autopla in the feed.
2
The "Destination Link" (Crucial)
Pinterest allows you to add a link directly to the Pin. You must copy and paste the link we provide you into this field.

Why? If you use the raw listing URL, you miss out on data tracking and optimization. Always use the link we provide.
3
SEO Title & Description
Pinterest is a search engine. Don't be cute; be descriptive.
Good Title: "4 Bed, 3 Bath Home for Sale in Austin, TX"
Description: "Beautiful modern home in the heart of Austin. Perfect for families. #ad #austinrealestate #homesforsale"

Final Checklist
