  • Pinterest is really a nice way to share the things. I have a vacation rental business and I keep sharing the updates and latest images to my pinterest boards and get a lots of good leads from there. It is a great way to tell people about your business and your services.

  • Hello Heather,
    Sorry for the belated reply to your post. Thanks for engaging with us here and on twitter! Yes, pictures are so important to a listing. We tell homeowners to use their best image for Pinterest, average pictures won’t suffice. We just held our Homeowner Forums and continue to push excellent pictures. We offer a photography service which some of our homeowners use. Take care,
    Becky

  • Great post Becky – particularly the point about using only the best images. I’ve seen so many vacation rental Pinterest boards that show mediocre photographs that are more of a turn-off. Remember that Pinterest is big because it promotes the best and most desirable in photography and makes people want to Like and Repin to their boards. It’s a great motivator to get more critical about images used on a vacation rental web site, and to improve them.
