Is There A Way?

[dressurdolly2]

I don't know too much about Pinterest, but I get a lot of hits from there. Is there a way to find where you are on there?

Like... if someone has pinned your items?

Not sure. :/

[SnakSaks]

I got a hit from there tonight myself. I'd love to know also.

[dressurdolly2]

Right, Jordan...can you find yourself on there?

[Former_Member]

I have never tried. I will go look to see now.

The only way I found anything was to google "vibrantshadows pinterest" but I only saw one thing and my own pinterest account. I'll keep browsing. :)

The best that I can do is get stuff that has been pinned from etsy. I tried lloking up your name and it won't search that way. But, I am by no means an expert when it comes to these things.

Going to go look at your listings in your shop to see if I can recognize your picture style on pinterest.

[Former_Member]

According to a few sites, you can type

www.pinterest.com/source/yourdomain.com

and it will pull up your things... but it isn't working for me when I use my shop link, my domain, or a direct link to an item that I know is on there.

So hmmm.

[Former_Member]

Yeah.... I am having no luck either. Sorry.

[dressurdolly2]

Well thanks guys anyway! I appreciate you trying. Xoxo

I've found a few of my scarves by typing in something like "eternity scarf"... and scrolling. lol. So maybe try doll clothes, doll outfit, etc and see what comes up?

Ya I'm getting hits from there too lately!

When I pin an item from etsy, there is a small box on the left that has " other etsy pins". I've never clicked on it but am wondering what would show up?

[dressurdolly2]

I get lots of hits from there and stumbleupon.

[dressurdolly2]

oh, that's interesting, mia!

I would also go to pinterest and search for American Doll and see if you see any of your items.

But as far as searching by your name, I don' t think there is a way. You just need to search for terms/tags that your item would be listed under.

AH...I just pinned Gail's wedding dress and clicked on the link and it takes you to pages of etsy items!

[Former_Member]

Some of the sources show up, so try "etsy" in your search with whatever terms you use...
I did a quick search and didn't find you.

But I found this really cute photo. lol

that's kind of a unique way to photograph!!

[dressurdolly2]

That is a fabulous photo!

I did a search too using your shop name, Etsy, and doll clothes. I did not see specifically yours though. Didn't you participate in the heart/pins threads about two months back?

I am now getting views from Stumble, Pinterest, and various other e-mail and search engines.

[Former_Member]

Most of the outfits I was pulling up were what someone was pinning from their own shop I think. Annnnd half were disney clothes. heh.

I think i'll go pin a few things of yours today after work!

And side note: maybe this is a hint that when we pin(those of us who do), we should include a detailed description of the item or a shop name or something...
I never thought about it til now but if I added an outfit and just typed "cute for a little girl!!!" in the description, that won't help search at all. Maybe i'll put "adorable outfit for an american doll from dressurdolly" instead.
I see so many pins through browsing that don't have searchable descriptions, i'm going to fix that!!! :-)

[Former_Member]

oh I never thought of that! Thank the good gods that my boards are not that full yet and I can edit them with ease.

[Former_Member]

I always include the shop link in my descriptions, like "cute American Girl doll outfit from dressurdolly.etsy.com" I figure people have a better chance of getting to the shop that way.

[dressurdolly2]

Ohhhhh....great idea, rrizzi!!

[miascloset]

Yes!! Always include the shop name!
Hey Gail, someone already re-pinned your dress!
