Linking your Pinterest boards to your Linksky Visual site is a great way to get traffic to your website. Not only is it fun to share your favorite products, projects and inspirations and engage with your audience, but you can also add buttons to your Online Store which may help increase your sales. If you are not using the Online Store Widget yet, check it out here: Online Store.
Adding a “Follow Me” button
Here's how to add your Pinterest follow button to your site using the HTML Code Widget:
- In your Sitebuilder, drag and drop the HTML Code Widget (located in Widgets > Popular) onto your page.
- Write or paste your code (use right-click > paste or Ctrl-V to paste) into the HTML Editor.
- When you are done, click "Save".
- Click on the "HTML" button on the Text Editing Toolbar.
- Write or paste your code (use right-click > paste or Ctrl-V to paste) into the HTML Editor.
- When you are finished, click "OK" to return to editing text.
If you are editing a blog post, you can insert your Pinterest follow button using the HTML button on the blog's Text Editing Toolbar (this works the same as a Text Widget).
Adding a “Pin It” button
If you would like to add a "Pin It" button to your site, you can do so as follows:
- Go to this page and set up your embed code: http://pinterest.com/about/goodies.
- Copy the code provided.
- Drag and drop the HTML Code Widget onto your page.
- Paste the code into the HTML Editor.
- Click "Save"
Verify your domain
With your Linksky Visual builder it is possible to verify your domain on Pinterest. This means that that your website shows the full URL on your profile and in search results. You can read more about it on the Pinterest Blog.

- Click on the pen icon in the bottom-right corner of the banner (located at the top of the page).
- The "Edit Profile" screen will open up.
- Enter your Linksky Visual site's URL next to "Website" as: http://www.yourdomain.com (replace "yourdomain" with your domain name").
- Click on "Verify Website".
- Click on the "Verify with a meta tag" link. This will display a meta tag which will look something like this: <meta name="p:domain_verify" content="9eb763b8a48d92e1e0386b355c220efc" />
- Copy the meta tag.
- Back on your Linksky Visual site, click on Site > Tracking > Site Tracking Code.
- Paste the code into the "Header Code" pane on the right-hand side of the screen.
- Republish your Linksky Visual site.
- In your Pinterest account, you will see a checkmark next to your Linksky Visual site's URL to indicate that it is a verified website.
