I read your wonderful article on copy blogger, 56 Ways to Market Your Business with Pinterest. I have seen it around, just hadn’t taken the time to find out what it was. Thanks for letting me know! Yes, I would love to know more and plan on connecting with your blog more often.

Thanks Beth, worked like a charm. Had a few difficulties with some files though: “won’t be able to upload for security reasons” but when I changed the file name it worked again. Greetings from holland!

Hi Phyllis – Yes, you are correct – a “pin” an individual photo with description and a “board” is made up of several “pins”.

Best of luck and HAVE FUN!

Beth –

I loved your free report “5 Stupid Mistakes to Avoid If You Want to Make Money With Pinterest” — thanks so much for sharing it.

Here’s my basic clarification question: Is a “pin” an individual photo with description and a “board” is made up of several “pins”?

I’m @ZimblerMiller on Pinterest (as I am on Twitter) although I have a long way to go in creating an effective Pinterest presence.

Thanks for helping me get off to a good start,
Phyllis

Comment on The Fastest Way to Get Flat-Out Rejected for a Guest Blogging Gig by Tamara G. Suttle, M.Ed., LPC

Beth, thanks for writing this post on guest blogging. I can so relate! I’ve received at least 3 ill-fated requests from “potential” guest bloggers with presentations similar to what you have described. It’s so frustrating to see that they’ve written their drafts for an audience other than mine (psychotherapists and allied health professionals) or failed to give a nod to the purpose of my blog (helping build strong private practices). I don’t even bother to respond to inquiries like this!

On the other hand, I have also received lovely guest posts from individuals (including you!) who have taken the time to read my guest post guidelines and were wise enough to comply with them. I’m always excited to introduce my readers to really great information and inspiration and it’s a pleasure to often learn from those guest bloggers, too!

Thanks for taking the time to put these suggestions in writing. I’ll definitely be sharing this post with others!

And, . . . would love to see you write a tutorial on how to upload and link our Pinterest images onto our own blog.

Thanks, Warren! Nice to see you here! I agree with you – I think as bloggers we have a responsibility to our readers to put the best content we can on our sites, so that our readers can really get great information from us. And guest posters – both good and not-so-good – are still direct representatives of our brand. So it’s in our best interest as bloggers to pick the good stuff!

And if we’re pitching to another blogger, I think we need to do our homework and make a great impression, right from moment one!

Thanks for your comment!
