Ultimate Tailwind Tribes Pinterest Guide (Communities)

Update: Tailwind has announced that they have changed the name of Tailwind Tribes to Tailwind Communities.

Stating: “We don’t want to keep adding to the trivialization of the word “tribe,” nor propagate its hurtful connotations to Native communities.”

The following article was published before the name change, and includes the use of the current name ‘Tailwind Tribes.’

The traffic Pinterest sends to my blog is huge, and growing by the day. Here’s the secret ingredient that makes blog traffic pop!

The secret to cracking the Pinterest algorithm is to pin your blog posts strategically to boards with strong keywords, using strong keywords in the description of the pin.

If any of that sounds complicated to you, read this post to learn about Pinterest SEO first!

If you have been a reader of this blog for a while then you already know how I am a huge supporter of Tailwind.

I make use of Tailwind‘s auto pinning features, Tribes, and SmartLoop as well Tailwind for Instagram. Each has contributed traffic growth for me.

But, are you using Tailwind Tribes to grow your blog yet?

The previously invite-only app feature is the secret ingredient of bloggers and influencers to majorly boost blog and Pinterest traffic, engagement and social reach.

What Are Tailwind Tribes?

Tailwind Tribes are a feature in Tailwind, where a group of people share each other’s Pinterest pins. This group-effort boosts each other’s Pinterest reach like crazy! Tailwind Tribes are free!

Basically, Tailwind Tribes are formed by groups of trusted peers, sharing one another’s pins to Pinterest.

From Tailwind’s Press Release:

As Tribemates add great content to their Tribe, a feed is created for easy review and sharing. By collaborating in this way, everyone in the Tribe has a continuous stream of hand-curated content from people they trust, saving them time and improving their content quality. And, when someone shares their content from the Tribe, they also get exposure to a highly-relevant audience.

There are thousands of Tailwind Tribes spanning a wide variety of niches. Chances are, if you’re blogging about a topic there’s a Tribe for it.

You are welcome to join my Tailwind Tribe, it is open to all niches, and when you join you will get a $15 credit for a free month of Tailwind too.

The HerPaperRoute Tribe currently has a reach of over 3.8 million, and is growing strong! ⠀

Note: I’m sharing my personal results here, but Tailwind also publishes a Typical Results of Tailwind so you can see what the average growth rate looks like for members.

Recently Tailwind launched the ‘Find a Tribe’ feature which lets you search for Tailwind Tribes to join by keyword or by category.

Before you join, you’ll be able to preview a Tribe’s content to see if it’s a good fit.

You’ll also see how many Tribemates it contains and how active the Tribe is.

Find a Tribe is a potential game-changer, especially for new marketers or bloggers who need help kickstarting their networking efforts.

Joining open public Tribes is easy and now, for the first time, anyone can find and request to join private Tribes as well.

And, of course, you can also create your own brand-new Tribe for others to join.

How I Use Tailwind

When you first log into Tailwind, there are a ton of tabs, sections, and text but don’t worry, don’t let the number of options here discourage you!

Focus on the set of tabs on the left of your screen for now. You will be using the ‘Publish/scheduled’ and ‘Drafts’ tabs mainly.

Easy Quick-start Guide:

  1. Join Tailwind here
  2. Install the Tailwind Chrome extension
  3. With the Chrome extension installed, go to Pinterest and choose a pin to share. When hovered over a pin you will see a little blue logo, and when you click a pin to expand it you will see a bigger blue logo ‘schedule’ button. Click either and it will open up a window
  4. Here you can choose which boards to share it to and choose the date/time to share it. You can also share it to your tribes here as well
  5. Go to your Tailwind dashboard to the ‘Publish’ tab to monitor your scheduled pins

When you are logged into Tailwind and in the ‘Tribes‘ area, you will see a collection of pins that other members have submitted. You can share their pins by choosing a board to re-pin it to, and schedule a time to have it go out, just the same way as you did in step #4 above.
