One trick is to get a feel for the pulse of the market by going to sites like zergnet, buzzfeed and buzzsumo to see what is trending so you know what people are likely to share. That way you get an idea for the sort of content that is likely to go viral. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f02MSIUgjY
Pixel
Pixel is Facebook’s tracker, its best to optimize ads for add-to-cart. Basically, we want people to add a product to their cart as this at least suggests interest in buying.
Tips
Pinterest is largely female demographic, its an online scrap book that is all about Do It Yourself. Rolling pins for cooking will do well here, Christmas decorations will do well here. Anything that has a DIY aspect will perform here. Occasionally gadgets will do well.
Share Boards
The unwritten rule is that you need to pin other people’s content once for every piece of your own content pinned.
