What is pin?

An image or video post on Pinterest that can carry a link.

Pins are searched and found on Pinterest for a long time, so they live much longer than posts elsewhere. Vertical (2:3) images work best.

Keywords in the title and description help a Pin show up in search. It's a strong traffic source for products and inspiration.
