From my experience, Pinterest is by far the easiest and fastest way to get organic traffic to your blog. How do I know this? In my first month of using Pinterest to market my first blog bringingbackthehousewife.com I went from 1 user (my mom) to a little over 14 thousand new users. This was huge growth for a brand new blogger.
I am going to be honest though, I don’t think I could have done this without Tailwind and all of it’s stellar features. In this post I am going to go over the Tailwind Basics including pricing and plans as well as go over Tailwind’s amazing features like Tribes, Smartloop, and the smart schedule!

Smart Loop
- Allows you to reshare evergreen content on a rotating basis
- Smart loop posts are viewable on your smart loop schedule
- Automatically schedules pins
- Uses optimized times to post pins
Here are the exact steps I took to set up my Pinterest Schedule
1. create a pinning schedule based on Tailwind’s optimal pinning time. Adjust to meet the number of times you want to pin each day. I like to pin 30 times a day.
2. Insert your own content into the optimal pinning times. I usually pin about 10 of my own pins a day. You can do this by loading pins directly into Tailwind or by pinning off of your best of board. *If you use Smart Loop some of these spots will already be filled for you.
3. Using the Tailwind browser extension, fill in the rest of the empty slots with other excellent content from other great content creators.
4. If you want to mix up content you can use the shuffle feature. I like to hit the lock button on my own posts so that they stay in the optimal position. I then shuffle other posts around.
In a nutshell, that’s how I create my Tailwind Schedule every month. It’s so easy!
