Pinterest’s phenomenal success has been driving people to pin things on their pinboards like crazy. Rising from relative obscurity, Pinterest owns the distinction of being the hottest website in the planet with 10 million unique visitors in the United States alone. The rate of the rise in Pinterest’s popularity is matched only by a rocket’s escape velocity. Pinterest has become a natural-fit for businesses that contain lots of pictures. It is useful for bridal, food, fashion and other related websites. There are websites, say organizations and foundations that are usually text-heavy. With less images on your website, it seems that you will not be able to fully harness the power of exposure offered by Pinterest. If you don’t have a lot of images on your website, there is not much to pin about. The feeling is akin to your hands getting tied up. There are also issues that some images on a number of websites are difficult to pin—just think how you felt when you saw the “no images detected” error message. Get the drift? Fear not for there are solutions to these common Pinterest issues! When a bookmarklet is having trouble locating some images this may mean a lot of things. It would be great if you include in your websites FAQ page some instructions on how to pin images off your site. Like right-clicking and then Save Image As or going to the extreme of having a screenshot and uploading it into Pinterest manually. When all things fail then there is little that you can do for now, sadly that is how Pinterest works. But how do you get your text-heavy website get pinned on Pinterest? Is there any way of doing it? Yes! However, you would need to enlist some help using different websites or browser extensions to get it done. You should never lose hope in trying to catch the Pinterest wave even if your website has image-poverty issues. One of the most used pinning resources is the Shotpin.
