Pinterest is a visual discovery engine with over 480 million monthly active users. Unlike other social platforms where content disappears from feeds in hours, Pinterest Pins can drive traffic for months or even years after posting. For app developers and product creators, Pinterest is an underused goldmine for long-term organic discovery.
MakePost lets you schedule Pinterest Pins alongside your content for Instagram, TikTok, and other visual platforms — so you never miss this long-tail traffic source.
How It Works
Connect your Pinterest account
Link your Pinterest account with one click. MakePost handles the authorization — no API keys or developer setup required.
Upload your image or video
Upload vertical images (1000x1500 recommended) or video Pins. Add a title, description, and destination link to drive traffic to your app or website.
Schedule and cross-post
Schedule your Pin for the best time and simultaneously publish the same visual to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and other platforms.
What You Get with MakePost + Pinterest
Long-tail traffic. Pinterest Pins have a much longer lifespan than posts on other platforms. A single Pin can drive traffic to your app listing or website for months after publishing.
Visual discovery. Pinterest users are actively searching for products and solutions. Your app screenshots, feature highlights, and promotional graphics can appear in their search results.
Image and video Pins. Upload static images for traditional Pins or short videos for Video Pins. Both formats are supported through MakePost.
Destination links. Unlike most social platforms, Pinterest lets you attach a clickable link to every Pin — driving users directly to your app store listing or landing page.
Cross-platform publishing. The same visual content you create for Pinterest can go to Instagram, Facebook, and other image-friendly platforms simultaneously.
