I make over $23,000 a month with Pinterest affiliate marketing — and today I’m revealing a brand-new strategy that you can literally copy to also start making thousands of dollars per month.
This is something I’ve never shared publicly before, and honestly, it’s a gold mine. If you take action, this method can help you make $10,000+ a month.
So, let’s dive right in.
How the Strategy Works
At the core, this strategy revolves around creating your own blog website.
Think of it like a digital journal where you share tips on different topics while naturally promoting your affiliate links.
Here’s why this is powerful:
- Blog posts perform really well on Pinterest.
- If someone clicks your pin, they land on your blog.
- Your blog not only promotes affiliate links but can also have ads — giving you another income stream.
Step 1: Pick a Profitable Pinterest-Friendly Niche
The most profitable and trending niches on Pinterest right now are:
- 🏡 Home decor & DIY
- 🍳 Recipes & cooking
- 👗 Fashion & beauty
- 💪 Health & wellness
- 💵 Personal finance
Choose a niche that’s both profitable and something you’re interested in.
Step 2: Find Affiliate Links
Now comes the fun part — affiliate links.
Here’s my process:
- Search for your niche on Pinterest.
- Look through posts. You’ll see many people promoting products.
- Save around 30–50 affiliate programs into a Google Doc.
For example, if you see someone promoting Rakuten or Swagbucks, Google their affiliate programs, sign up, and get your own links.
Other platforms you can use:
- Amazon Associates (great for promoting home decor, kitchen, or fashion products)
- Impact
👉 Always promote quality products. And aim for high-ticket affiliate programs (that pay $30+ per referral).
Keep everything organized in a spreadsheet or Google Doc for easy access.
Step 3: Create Your Blog Website
This is where the magic happens.
Your blog posts will:
- Share helpful tips.
- Naturally promote your affiliate links.
- Build trust with your audience.
Don’t overcomplicate this — blog posts can be short and focused. For example: “10 Profitable One-Person Business Ideas for 2025” with affiliate links sprinkled throughout.
Pro Tip: Always check competitors’ blogs on Pinterest. You’ll get tons of inspiration.
I recommend using Hostinger because it’s affordable (less than $4/month), comes with a free domain, and has AI website + content tools to set everything up in minutes.

Step 4: Start Publishing Blog Posts
Inside WordPress, you’ll:
- Create new posts.
- Add affiliate links (use buttons, images, and text).
- Build a “Resources” page where all your affiliate links live in one place.
Consistency is key. Publish 1–3 blog posts daily (with the help of AI, this is easy).
Step 5: Set Up Your Pinterest Account
- Create a business Pinterest account.
- Add your profile picture, username, and link your website.
- Study competitors in your niche to see what content works.
You’ll be posting pins that promote your blog posts.
👉 I use Canva to create Pinterest pins in minutes. Just search “Pinterest Pin” in Canva, pick a template, customize it, and you’re ready to upload.
Make sure to optimize your titles and descriptions with SEO keywords so your posts rank when people search.
Step 6: Stick to a Posting Schedule
Here’s what works best:
- Post 2–3 new pins daily on Pinterest.
- Publish 1–3 new blog posts daily.
- Re-promote old blog posts with fresh new pin designs (don’t spam the same one back-to-back).
This consistency helps you grow quickly and make money faster.
Step 7: Monetize Beyond Affiliate Links
Affiliate links are just one income stream. You can also:
- Apply for Google AdSense and earn from ads on your blog.
- Repurpose your content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube to drive even more traffic.
- Eventually scale into digital products, sponsored posts, and more.
This is exactly how I’ve grown my business to over $50,000/month with affiliate marketing — and last month, my overall income (affiliate + digital products + sponsorships + ads) was over $150,000.
Final Thoughts
Pinterest affiliate marketing is hands down one of the best opportunities right now.
If you:
- Choose a profitable niche,
- Set up your blog properly,
- Post consistently on Pinterest,
you’ll be on your way to building a business that makes thousands every month.
The best part? You don’t need to show your face if you don’t want to — this works for both on-camera and faceless creators.
