How to Do Affiliate Marketing on Pinterest Without a Website

Here's how to do affiliate marketing on Pinterest without a website.

Let me know what you think, ask me a question, or suggest something I cover in the future in the comments below!

Quick links:

Get a free Pinterest account (obviously). Sign in.
Get accounts with major affiliate programs like Amazon and Etsy. Sign in.
Go to pages of products you want to promote.
Get a screenshot tool like Lightshot and take a screenshot of the product that is at least 2x taller than wide. Go for 300 pixels x 600-700 pixels. Save the image.
Get the affiliate link from your affiliate company for that specific product, and copy it.
Optional step: paste it on Bitly and shorten it so you can track the clicks it gets. Some affiliate programs do this for you.
Go to Pinterest after having the right link, add a new pin, paste the affiliate link in the “website” section, upload the correct product image, copy and paste the title, and describe the product with related keywords.
Then, save the pin to a board that relates to the type of product it is and that's it! Just repeat the process 5 – 10 times per work day to build an affiliate income on Pinterest over time without a website.

I want to get business funds from donors, but it’s difficult. I have tried visiting sites on Google but there is no business cooperation program provided. it’s very difficult

Hi Justin. I checked out Amazon and Etsy. Both sites said they don’t allow affiliate marketing and Etsy said only with a website or a URL and not social media on Pinterest? I am new to all this stuff and am not real sure how to proceed. Can you tell me how much one can expect to make by using affiliate links? Do you have any other ideas on how to make money like this? I will check out the other videos above this chat box.

This post should probably be deleted entirely, unless you can update it with affiliate programs that you can actually get accepted into without a website or any type of following. (I haven’t found any yet…) Etsy and Amazon are both known for not allowing promotion of products on Pinterest unless the products are being linked to a blog through Pinterest.
