Millions of people on Pinterest have been searching for a way to schedule their pins for free. In the hopes of being able to schedule pins for free, many people clicked on outdated blog posts that either promoted services that are no longer free or services that do not work at all. Just like many of the Pinterest users out there, I was disappointed. However, after doing a lot of research, I have found a way to schedule pins for a low price, and in some cases (like mine), for free.
The answer is ViralWoot (formerly PinWoot). ViralWoot has been known for allowing you to follow users, repin, and like other people’s pins in order to get seeds (their point currency). However, one of ViralWoot’s features is the Pin Scheduler. The Pin Scheduler allows you to schedule pins to your boards. I tested out this feature, and it works!
If you created an account on ViralWoot back when it was PinWoot, you will not have to pay anything to gain access to the features. However, if you do not have an account on ViralWoot, you will have to pay $5 every month. If you have $5 every month to spend, you want to grow your presence on Pinterest, and you want to schedule pins, give ViralWoot a try. They also have a 7 day free trial so you know what you are getting.
The only problem with ViralWoot is that there is a limited number of pins you can schedule per month which can get expanded at a more expensive monthly cost. Regardless, ViralWoot will give you a good idea of the potential that comes with scheduling pins every day.
Thanks so much for this.. So there are absolutely no free ways to schedule? $5 is not bad though.. But just wondering!
ViralWoot is a free service that allows you to schedule a limited number of pins for free, but in order to schedule more pins, you need to pay.
You can schedule for free for a while with Tailwind. It’s been much more reliable than the others (pins actually post when they’re supposed to!) and at $9.99/month it offers more by way of analytics. A better deal for sure.
I took a look at Tailwind’s new feature, and it looks like a huge time saver. Anyone who takes Pinterest seriously should consider paying the annual fee. ViralWoot is good for Pinterest users who are not taking it as seriously since it allows you to grow your audience and schedule 100 pins every month for free.
Another problem with ViralWoot is that it doesn’t let you pin to any group boards–which are often the greatest source of traffic. You can only pin to your own personal boards. 🙁
I have not noticed that problem since I am not active on many group boards but see how this can be a problem. One thing about ViralWoot is that they have great customer support. You can tell them about the problem and they may fix it.
This is not an issue for Tailwind. I post to my group boards and it works fine. I don’t think any of the services can do private boards, but I don’t use those anyway.
Great ,great and greater advice. I love your blogs so full of good advice. Marc your advice is making my business more successful and for that I’m grateful.
