1. Create an account 

The first step is to create your account on Pinterest. Go to www.pinterest.com and click join Pinterest. You can either join via your Facebook or twitter or simply sign up with your Email. After signing up with these options you can upload your profile photo and get started.

2. Explore your home feed 

You'll see Pins, people, and companies Pinterest believes you'll love in your home feed and you can explore your home feed based on your recent activity. Additionally, Pinterest displays Pins from the boards and users you select to follow. So you can follow the accounts you like.

Additionally, you can look for Pins by entering certain keywords of your preference into the search box. Enter "Christmas party" in the search field to view suggestions for party food, presents and decorations.

3. Create your own Board

To gather items you are  interested in, you need to create boards. To do this, select your Board from the drop- down menu which is in the top right corner, then select Create a Board and you'll see a box appearing asking you to give your board a name, a description, and a category.

You can add different  items to a board after you have created it. You can also invite people to pin to your board by selecting the edit board option at the top, but to do so, you must either follow the user. You can also create a secret board where only you and the people you invite can see your board.

4. Create Pins

On Pinterest, you can make a variety of pins. To create a Pin, you can upload an image from your computer or mobile device. Additionally, you can make and save Pins from online photos as well. Each Pin you make should have a title, a small description, and a link to your website, if you have one. You can edit the pin at any given time, so don’t worry!

5. View your profile
