As a blogger, Pinterest brings us a lot of traffic. I’ve experimented with a lot of Pinterest schedulers, and I was having trouble finding a scheduler that let me space out the time between pins of one image to multiple boards.

Then I found Tailwind, which is an official Pinterest partner.

How to Schedule a Blog Post on Multiple Pinterest Boards with Tailwind using Board Lists

For every blog post, I want to pin the the post to multiple Pinterest boards. However, I want to space out the pins over time so that I don’t overwhelm my followers by pinning the same pin to say, 20 different boards. I also want to make sure that I pin other pins in between so that my followers don’t see me re-pin the same pin over and over without anything else showing.

How to schedule a blog post on multiple boards with Tailwind Pinterest Scheduler.

First, you’ll need to sign up with Tailwind .

Install the Tailwind extension for Chrome of Firefox.

Browse to your blog post.

Click on the Tailwind extension button on the image you want to pin (this usually appears on the bottom left of my images). You can also right click on the image and select the Schedule with Tailwind Publisher option. The Tailwind scheduler appears.

Now, you can select the boards that you want to pin to. Place your cursor in the Type a Board Name field, and select the boards that you’d like to Pin to.

IMPORTANT: If you really want to save time, set up Board Lists for Tailwind in Pinterest. See the yellow star before Food and Travel and Tailwind Family Travel on the image below? That’s a board list I set up. Each list contains boards that will AUTOMATICALLY be selected when you choose the Board List.

The boards you’ve selected appear. Now, all you need to do is set the interval for scheduling. I selected the Board List Tailwind Family Travel, and the four boards it contains are automatically added.

Now, I’m going to set up my pinning interval. Click the Use Interval button.

The Interval Pinning Scheduler appears.

Select the interval by sliding the blue button to adjust the minimum time between each pin. This is the amount of time that passes between each pin. I like to select one day, but you can schedule anything from 10 minutes to 90 days.

Click Set Interval. The next screen shows you when the next pin will be, and what pinning interval you’ve selected.

Click Schedule Now.

Success! Your Pin is scheduled!

I suggest giving Tailwind a try – you can start with a Free Plan, and see if you like it. The free trial is based on 100 scheduled Pins.

Is there any way to keep these pins rotating? Once you pin these, if you want to pin them again, you have to schedule them again, right? I like how Board Booster lets those pins stay on their system and be repinned in a cycle.

Hi Heidi!

Unfortunately, there’s no way to keep the pins rotating right now. I’ve heard rumors that Tailwind is adding that feature, and I’d love that to be the case.

For now, I just use board lists, and have a schedule where I re-schedule pins to my board lists every couple of months.

I know a lot of bloggers use both Tailwind and Board Booster. I decided to use Tailwind because it’s an official partner of Pinterest.

Hi Heidi – updated in 2019 here for anyone reading. Yes, Tailwind now has a feature called SmartLoop, which does just that – it creates a loop that will republish pins.
