This is a guest post by Shanna Mallon of Straight North.

From Pin Alerts to Pin Search, Pinterest tools abound. Which ones should you use? Which will help you make the most of the social network? To help answer those questions, here’s a look at seven Pinterest tools worth trying. When you understand how the tools work and what they offer, you’re better equipped to choose which ones to use…

1. Pin Alerts:-

Think of Pin Alerts as Google Alerts for Pinterest. Set up an account, and you get notified anytime anyone pins information from your site. Have more than one website to monitor? No problem. Use Pin Alerts to track as many domains as you wish.

Biggest Benefits with Pin Alerts:

a) Fast and easy setup

b) Automatic notifications to save you from constant Pinterest monitoring

c) Customized alert frequency (i.e., receive alerts once a day, once a week, etc.)

d) Ability to track more than one domain

e) Easy way to track pins to thank followers who share your site

2. Reachli:-

As a network with over 70 million users, Pinterest is an environment primed for monetization and advertising. But for brands and publishers alike, the most common question is “How?”As a brand, how do you use Pinterest to promote your products? As a publisher, how do you make money from a large audience? Enter Reachli. Working with 30,000+ advertisers, 1,000+ publishers, and 1,500+ daily campaigns, Reachli pairs advertisers with relevant brands, placing visual ads in the hover-over space of an image. While today it works with more than Pinterest images, Reachli actually grew out of the former Pinerly, a Pinterest analytics tool.
