How I Make $5397 per Month With Pinterest Affiliate Marketing (2025)

Hey I'm Anastasia and this is my completely free tutorial about affiliate marketing on Pinterest for beginners last month I made over $5,000 with affiliate marketing and today 

I will show you the new strategy that I use if you're new to my channel this is my Pinterest account and just in case I get about 70,000 monthly visitors to my website for free from Pinterest and first let me show you the basic version of this whole process for first you will quickly create a website or a Blog where you have content with affiliate links using Ai and a free new tool that will save you so much time then you will set a Pinterest account

Where you will have pins linked to your blog posts if you didn't realize most of the pins on this platform are already linked to some blog posts for example this pin goes to a blog post promoting fashion products when someone clicks on these link and makes a purchase the Blogger gets a commission I will show you how to join the biggest affiliate Marketplace really soon in this video but first let's get started with the first step of my seven step system that allows me to earn thousands of dollars per month with Pinterest affiliate marketing

And our step number one is to choose a niche that works well on Pinterest you can write this down for later because the biggest niches on Pinterest are Home and Decor fashion and style food and recipes health and wellness side hustles and personal finance now to get started as a beginner you need to get access to affiliate programs and even when you have a very small following and a brand new Pinterest account it is quite easy to get access to the biggest Marketplace as an affiliate so our second step is to sign up for Amazon Associates simply go to Google search for Amazon Associates and click on the very first link

I will also drop the link to it in the description below click sign up and choose whether to sign in with an existing Amazon account or maybe create a new one I will create a new account here enter your account information and click next you will then need to enter your website if you don't have one yet no worries I will show you how to create an affiliate marketing website later in this video but for now you can even add just your Pinterest profile link like I did here now set your associate store ID for example your name or your brand once all details are filled out click finish and you will reach the confirmation page one important note here if you don't generate a qualified sale on Amazon within 180 days your application will be withdrawn but don't worry

 I will guide you through strategies to make sure that you start earning commissions early next enter your payment and tax information here and your phone number and then click to add your bank account and update your tax details if you don't live in the United States then choose that you don't have a residency there and submit your country tax ID and your address once everything is set up click home to access your dashboard this is where you will track your earnings commissions and monthly summaries the Amazon asso dashboard gives you access to various tools reports and promotions to help you earn even more this promotion stab includes programs like the Amazon Bounty program where you earn commissions for specific customer actions with report you can track your performance through the earnings report and Consolidated summary for insights into your Revenue in The Help section you can find resources and some support now let's talk about monetizing International TR traffic with one link so this is an essential feature that I want you to pay close attention to it's called one link this one allows you to earn commissions from International traffic and to set it up click on the right top corner to open this menu go to tools and then open one link choose countries where you want to sell I added here other English speaking countries namely UK and Canada 

now I will also show you really quickly sites stripe although you will rarely need to use it if you follow my tutorial because I will show you a much faster and easier way of adding product links to your website so s stripe is very manual uh when you visit amazon.com you will see this side stripe toolbar at the top of the page so this tool makes it easy to generate affiliate links for any product but you have to manually copy them and paste on your blog you need to navigate to a product page click text on the S stripe Toolbar to generate your affiliate link then select the short link option because the full link can be very long and then copy and paste the link this is what you will share with your audience now with these tools you are ready to start monetizing your affiliate marketing efforts now the next step will be to create an affiliate marketing website I expect a bunch of questions like this can you do affiliate marketing on Pinterest by by adding direct affiliate links to your pins well technically you can do it but I don't recommend doing it with most of your pins and here is why reason number one is because Pinterest says in their terms of service that affiliate links should be used in moderation 

so they don't specify how many pins with affiliate links is too many and so this can get your account suspended so you're playing with a fire here without knowing what is the limit reason number two is that pins that are linked to a verified domain to your website get more Impressions compared to pins that are linked to any external platform so these affiliate links they're linking elsewhere and the third reason is that when you have a Blog you can have multiple affiliate links on each page on each blog post so you can offer a variety of options to users and user intent on Pinterest is to explore and discover many ideas for something that they want to find so say if we talk about fashion when people go to Pinterest they are not looking for a specific model or brand they want many ideas say for example of summer dresses in one place and to give them that you need a pin that links to a lisal blog post like this for example that has lots of products with your affiliate links I will show you later in the video how you can create this content in no time using Ai and I recommend you to start this affiliate marketing blog on WordPress and with hostinger first let me explain why WordPress uh that's because it's the most widely used CMS or content management system in the world it has the biggest number of Integrations and plugins for every tool that you will need in your journey in the future and why hostinger well that's because it has a managed WordPress hosting plan 

which I recommend you using this means you will install WordPress without any technical knowledge in just a few easy steps following their guided instructions and also it means that you will get chat support for your blog and another very important reason is uh is that you will see in the next step how hostinger made it super easy for you to create affiliate marketing content and add your affiliate uh Amazon affiliate links to the blog post automatically I don't know any other hosting provider on the market right now that offers that so if your goal is affiliate marketing on Pinterest this is an absolute no-brainer for me to recommend you hostinger later in the video

 I will show you what types of Articles you can create using some AI tools that are included in hostinger plan and how you can drive traffic to your site using this content but for now to get started click on the hostinger link in the description below is hostinger.com Anastasia then click claim deal to start your setup now choose your plan and I can tell you that uh premium or business plans will work fine but since we're building today this blog for affiliate marketing I recommend you to actually use the business plan as it comes with daily backups but also with an AI website builder for WordPress and also it comes with a free affiliate marketing tool with this tool you will be able to connect your Amazon account directly to your website and then display affiliate links in a very effective way so also you need to select your duration and I recommend going for 12 24 or 48 months because if you went with monthly payment plan the price is a lot higher and the longer the plan the lower the price per month but for this video I'll go with a 12month plan apply the coupon here click here on have a coupon code and enter 

Anastasia and then click apply to get additional 10% discount account then create an account just by entering your email and password and complete your payment enter your payment details and click submit secure payment next let's click on this button create or migrate then it asks you who is the site for and I will say that I'm building it for my for myself for my business and click next and if you had a block elsewhere you have an option here to migrate your site to hostinger but now that I'm building a 

Blog from scratch um I will choose that I want to create one on this tab please pay close attention uh because for what we are building today an affiliate marketing blog is best for you to go with WordPress installation and not the hosting or website builder and I already talked about the benefits of using Wordpress a little bit earlier in the video and in addition to all of these benefits if you already clicked on WordPress option you will find that hostinger added a WordPress AI Builder and later on you will see affiliate marketing tools that are also included in this option so go ahead and choose create a site with AI now and now on the next step you will be prompted to choose a domain name for your blog remember I told you that you will get a domain name for the first year for free if you use hostinger so you can do some research and find a domain here but if you're not sure and you didn't do any research in advance then don't worry you can totally skip the step for now you will just have an option to use your freedomain name later in your hostinger account so for now just click here to use temporary domain and then your WordPress installation will start it will take a couple of minutes so I will just speed up this part in the video on the next page you will need to give a bit of information about your future site to help AI build it I have an idea it will be a fashion blog for me so I will type fashion trend ideas then in the website type I could choose a Blog but I think that it is more accurate to say that I'm building an affiliate website for the blog description I will just type A Blog with affiliate marketing reviews in the fashion Niche luxury and trendy product reviews and listicles I don't recommend giving any specific details like add the photo here or there just a very broad idea of your future webs website and then I hit create and it will start generating my WordPress site in front of me okay so a few minutes later I can review this brand new website on the homepage it has several featured blog posts and it has a button to shop page and a bunch of fashion photos it looks great and relevant to the description I will click confirm and add it and we will be able to make more changes to this blog inside of the WordPress dashboard once WordPress is installed you are ready to start customizing your website and creating content to drive traffic and to generate affiliate commissions I won't go into full website building details here but I will walk you through the essential tools and the AI features that will make your affiliate marketing Journey a lot easier so first let me show you how to connect your blog to Amazon Associates now that your website is set up let's connect uh it to Amazon Associates so you can start monetizing your affiliate links so access the admin panel click admin panel in your hostinger dashboard and this is where you will build and manage your affiliate site then connect Amazon Associates click the Amazon Associates integration button log into your Amazon Associates dashboard and in your hostinger settings you need to choose Amazon store country Pinterest will bring you mostly United States based audience and it's also the biggest market so I would set it to the US and the language should be English and up there you will need to submit your Amazon tracking ID so if you don't know where to find yours go back to the same menu on the right corner choose manage tracking IDs and your code should appear over here then click save and your Amazon affiliate account should be connected to the website as you have just seen with hostinger the requirement of Amazon to have three sales in the past 180 days that you might have heard about is no longer necessary and once your Amazon account is connected you will be able to automatically pull product details and prices to easily insert Amazon affiliate links and to optimize your content for high conversions and once this process is done you will see that the API status is green saying connected and that your partner ID is displayed over here so now that your site is integrated let's move on to creating content that attracts traffic and drives sales use AI tools for Content creation and I suggest that you maximize your results using all the tools that hostinger offers to bloggers and content creation is getting so much easier with its AI content creator first you will select content type choose the type of content that you want to create and by the way we need a blog post here then choose a tone of voice and you can select multiple tones to match your brand Styles but I usually go with neutral or friendly then set content length and options here will include short medium or long form content and then you can enter a topic for example 15 summer fashion trends for this year then you can use keywords and this is optional because the eii will generate relevant keywords for SEO or you can enter your own keywords then click create content and thei will generate for you optimized keywords a meta description an AI generated image a fully written article and this free integrated AI tool saves hours of writing time but I always recommend you to addit and personalize your content before publishing it once you're satisfied you can click publish and the article will go live on your website instantly now what is this post actually missing hello we're trying to make money with affiliate marketing here so of course products from Amazon with your affiliate links are missing in this post and again hosting your plugin will help you add this product so much faster so open any part of your blog post where you would like to add Amazon products click on this plus icon to add add a new block and then start typing the word Amazon this way you will find this option link Amazon products here you get a few different formats to add a single product add multiple product lists or a comparison table I think that the last format is the most interesting to show you here in this tutorial so creating a product comparison table is easy just click add new table in the Amazon plugin section name your table for example best summary addresses and then add products you can either enter the Amazon standard identification AC number or search for products directly on Amazon so you can select products choose a few relevant items and then click confirm selection then you can customize your table you can add highlights change colors or include some text labels then you can just click save changes and the system will generate uh a short code for your table and now you can embed this table into any blog post by adding the short code of your post content wow this table alone would usually take me an extra 30 minutes of research and copy pasting links manually I just wanted to make it clear that hostinger developed a whole new plugin for Amazon Affiliates and included it in the WordPress hosting package for free so if you don't use hostinger and you don't use this plug-in and you want to be an Amazon affiliate blogger you would still have to purchase another plugin that could cost you probably hundreds of dollars per year now let's talk about the next step it's driving traffic to your affiliate website so now that your site is fully set up it's time to focus on getting visitors and earning commissions the most important thing I wanted to tell you is learn from others you don't have to reinvent the will look at what other s in your Niche are doing on Pinterest for example check out pins related to the topic of your PIN search for winter fashion trends analyze what's working for them how they design their pins what keywords they use and how they promoting those products while you should never copy someone else's work directly you can draw some inspiration from their strategies by the way you can find lots of pin templates in canva and it has a wide selection of elements and photos even on their free plan so once your PIN is ready you designed it download it and head to Pinterest click create pin upload the image and fill in the title and description But be sure to include relevant keywords in both the title and description to increase visibility of your PIN inserch results on Pinterest next you can add a destination link and actually this can be a direct affiliate link or a blog post to something that we just created and I already mentioned today that I think it's always better to have a blog post and link to it uh for it's better for long-term results you can also search for related tags and they are high level broad categories that your PIN can relate to you can find three to four different tags if possible for your topic now let's select a board to save the PIN to you can create a new board specifically for this topic if you're planning to save a lot of pins related to the same topic like if I had a whole Pinterest account dedicated to Fashion I would definitely have at least one board with something like fashion trends you can save the pin right away but you can also schedule it for a later day and there is another setting to allow comments so that you can engage with your audience now let's talk about using AI tools to scale your Pinterest I used to do all of this manually the process that I just described using canva uploading things to Pinterest and then writing the Pinterest title and description and doing this for one pin isn't a big deal but if you want to see real results on Pinterest you need to post multiple pins per day when you're just starting 3 to five pins per day is a good deal but if your blog grows you will likely need to ramp up up to 20 pins per day yeah 20 sounds overwhelming right but don't worry I promised an easy way to do this thanks to AI tools so for this part I use block to pin now it's perfect for Roundup blog posts that already have plenty of images inside I simply submit my sit map and add a few canva templates that I like and block to pin takes over it automatically generates 15 to 20 pins per day for my blogs completely on autopilot the AI creates pins with text overlays pulls images from my blog Pages finds the most relevant Pinterest board and even writes the pin title description and Altex it also schedules pins from the same page with a safe 7-Day interval and all I have to do is review the pins approve them with a couple of clicks make quick edits if needed or reject anything that doesn't fit and just like that I spend about an hour a month managing a schedule of over 600 pins in advance so if you want to dive deeper into this AI powered pin creation method check out my video link both I'll see you in the next one
