Most of my traffic comes from Pinterest, so lately I’ve been focusing on growing my Pinterest following. So, today I’m stepping away from the usual cat themed posts, to talk to you about a great tool for scheduling pins that will help you grow your Pinterest media following. I’m talking about Viraltag!
I signed up for a 14 day free trial and in just two weeks Cat Lady Confidential grew from about 600 Pinterest followers to 860 followers!
Have you ever wondered how some users on Pinterest got so many followers? The secret is to actively engage followers with new content. And the great thing about Viraltag is that now you can do that without manually pinning a new picture every hour.
With Viraltag I was able to schedule pins in advance to Pinterest and, what’s even more awesome, I was able to re-pin pins that already existed on my Cat Lady Confidential boards to large group boards I have joined (tip: join group boards to increase your reach).
Creating a posting schedule was super easy and quick on their scheduling page. I was able to automatically schedule my pins across the whole week, allowing my pins to reach a bigger audience.
How it works
With Viraltag you can schede posts to Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and LinkedIn. You can connect multiple accounts on any social channel depending on your plan.
Finding content
Viraltag offers you several options for finding your own content to share. You can add RSS feeds from your favorite blogs or websites. A feed of the most recent photos and visuals will automatically appear in your dashboard and you can schedule directly from there. You can also search popular images to find photos being shareg by Viraltag users or browse for content to share by category or search by keyword.
Just click to schedule something you would like the share. The link is automatically included to direct traffic to the original source. You can make any edits you need to the caption. Then select the accounts you would like to post it to and the time you would like it to be posted.
There’s also the option to schedule content from anywhere on the web with the Viraltag Browser Extension. I used this all the time – it’s easy and fast! Just like using the Pinterest Pin It Button, the Viraltag button allows you to bring up all the photos on any web page and simply click to schedule one or multiple to your social networks. You can even use this button to schedule your repins.
Share your own content
Viraltag also makes it simple for you to share your own content. Simply pull it into Viraltag from whichever source you keep your content. You can upload photos directly from your computer or from Facebook, Dropbox, Flickr, or Google Drive simply with the Viraltag upload tool.
Final thoughts
Viraltag is a great choice in the social tools world, since most scheduling tools don’t include Pinterest. Viraltag lets you schedule posts on Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and LinkedIn.
Their plans start at $24 a month.
