I was wondering about this since I found it's not easy to get views and followers

Hi @milaclest_ ! It personally took me 9 months to a year to begin growing in the way I wanted. You're right; it is very hard to get follows on here. So I don't focus on that metric so much.

Hi @milaclest_!  I love that @hellohomegirl shared her experience with you. It's definitely consistent with what I've seen over the years as a Pinterest Educator. Every account is different, but I use this as a VERY loose expectation... 

I generally say it takes at least 3 month of consistent pinning (on a profile that you set up and optimized properly) to start to see traction on Pinterest. (This means you start to see growth in impressions, really.) 

Then it usually takes my students and clients around 6 to 9 months to start to see things like significant follower growth, website traffic, email list growth, etc. 

After a year, people who've been consistent usually look back and say, "Yayyyy! I'm so glad I did this! I'm really starting to see snowballing results." 

Pinterest is a "slow burn" for sure. But it's worth it! 

I also usually advise people to think of it more like Google or Youtube - not social media. If you started a brand new Google SEO or Youtube strategy, you would expect that it would take time. Same on Pinterest. 🙂 

I hope this helps!
