How to Use Pinterest Trends to Boost Your Marketing Efforts
Let’s dive into one of my favorite Pinterest tools that’s going to make your brand shine: Pinterest Trends. On my blog and podcast, I share weekly trends, and I often get asked, “This is great, but how do I use this information to market my business?” Today, we’re going to cover that in detail.
What are Pinterest Trends?
Pinterest Trends is like your new BFF for figuring out what’s hot and when it’s hot. This handy tool shows you the top search terms in different countries or regions over time. It’s perfect for planning your Pinterest marketing months in advance because let’s be real, pinners love to plan!
How to Use Pinterest Trends
- Log into Your Business Account: If you can’t see **trends.pinterest.com** or it’s not available in the top left menu of your Pinterest account, you might need to switch to a business account because this feature is exclusive to business users.
- Navigate to trends.pinterest.com: On your desktop, head over to Trends.Pinterest.com.
- Select Your Region: Choose your region from the dropdown menu. If you’re in countries like the U.S., you’re in luck since the U.S. pops up first. For those in Canada or other regions, just find your location or select the region relevant to your audience.
- Enter Keywords: Pop in your keywords and let the magic happen. If you don’t have specific keywords in mind, just scroll down to see what’s trending in your region. You’ll spot popular content and observe its growth compared to the previous week, month, or year.
- Think Like Your Clients: Be creative and consider what your ideal clients might be searching for.
- Filter with Finesse: You can filter by interest, age, and gender using the left-hand navigation. You can also filter by trend type, such as top monthly trends, top yearly trends, growing trends, and seasonal trends. Click on a trend, and the keywords will update automatically.

Make it a habit to review Pinterest Trends monthly. If your business is seasonal, at the very least, check quarterly. This will turn your brainstorming sessions into actionable strategies that bring real results.
