A list post such as "15 Ways to Save on Groceries" holds a whole series of pins. Each item answers a smaller search on its own, so one post can reach people looking for meal planning, bulk buying and store brands, and every pin sends them back to the same article. Bloggers who pin a list one item at a time get weeks of fresh pins from a single post.
Paste the post title and the numbered items, with a short description after a colon if you like. The tool makes a cover pin and one pin per item in the same style, labels each with its place in the list, and puts them all in a ZIP with a Pinterest bulk upload CSV that links every pin to your post.
Writing items that work as pins
Each item pin is seen on its own in the feed, so the item text should make sense without the rest of the list. "Buy store brands for staples" works; "Number three" does not. Start with a verb or the thing people search for, and keep it under about ten words.
The description line gives the reason or the result in a few words. It is printed smaller under the item, and it is also used as that pin's Pinterest description in the CSV, followed by the post title.
How to schedule a pin series
Publish the cover pin first, then add one or two item pins a day or a few a week. Spreading them out keeps your profile active and gives each pin its own chance in the feed. Fill the Publish date column in the CSV, or let a scheduler handle it.
Save item pins to the boards that fit each item best rather than all to one board. For a set of different designs for a post that is not a list, try the blog post to pin set. For step-by-step how-to content in a single tall pin, use the step by step pin maker.
