Use this tool to get a clean starting set, then delete anything that’s too broad. Relevance > “viral”.
Next step: generate the full pin set
Hashtags are a small lever. Bigger wins come from pin titles + descriptions + multiple angles per URL. Generate pins from a URL and publish consistently.
FAQ
Do hashtags still matter on Pinterest?
They can help a little, but Pinterest is mainly search + relevance. Focus first on keywords in titles, descriptions, and board context.
How many hashtags should I use?
Keep it small and relevant. A tight set of targeted hashtags beats a long list of generic ones.
Which hashtags should I avoid?
Overly broad or spammy tags (like “#viral”) usually don’t help targeting. Use hashtags that describe the exact topic of the pin.
What’s better than hashtags?
Keyword-rich pin titles + descriptions, plus publishing multiple pins per URL with different angles. Start with the Pinterest keyword tool.
