How We Get Down:

1. Follow the Influencers. This area is reserved for people who have won the Influencer Award for Outstanding Social Media Engagement. This is our way of rewarding them for being courteous linkup participants. If you’ve received an Influencer Award and installed the badge on your site, feel free to submit your link.

2. Follow the PinFest group board. That way, you can keep up with everything that your fellow bloggers have shared.

3. Link up your favorite Pin. You can submit the URL for a Pin that directs to your best blog content. Each Pin that is linked up will be re-pinned onto the PinFest group board.

4. Link up your Pinterest profile. Share the love and follow a few other link up participants!

5. Check out what other bloggers are up to!!! Visit the Pinfest group board. If you like their stuff, be generous with repins, and use the hashtag #PinFest!

At the end of the PinFest, each of the co-hosts will select a favorite Pin. The favorites and the blog who’s Pin received the most re-pins will be invited to be a contributor to our PinFest group board!

(Please note: Only the amount of re-pins within the PinFest board will be counted.)

Once you are a contributor, you can pin on the group board as much as you want, as often as you want.

HOW THIS WILL HELP YOU:

1. Pinterest will show your content to more people if it’s getting re-pins, likes, and comments.

2. Bloggers generally like to help people who help them, so the friends you make will be worth the effort.

3. If you receive an Influencer Award nomination and install the badge on your site, you’ll be able to submit your link to our influencer area and everyone who joins the link up will be required to follow you.

Does it all make sense? If not, leave a comment and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

So… are you ready to party?

FYI, by adding your link here you agree to be added to our mailing list. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Thanks so much for joining us! Sincerely,

Chelsea from Mommie and Wee, Katy from Chaos and Kiddos: Mommy’s Survival Guide, Karren from Oh! My Heartsie Girl, and The Four Honest Mamas from Wirl Mamas. 

Follow these people. You’ll be happy you did.

Thanks for sharing!
Make sure you come back next week to see if you won!
