How to use these keywords
- Name your boards after the top phrases, one topic per board.
- Give every pin one phrase: in the title first, in the first sentence of the description, and in the alt text as part of a plain description of the image.
- Use the seasonal list to plan the next two months, and the long-tail list for the pins you publish this week.
- Run the draft through Pin Doctor before you publish.

Frequently asked questions
- Are these Pinterest search volumes?
- No. Pinterest does not publish search counts. These are Google monthly searches in the United States from Keywords Everywhere, which move with the same seasons and rank phrases in the same order, so they are the best public measure of demand for quotes and motivation topics.
- How do I use this list?
- Pick one phrase per pin, put it in the title and the first sentence of the description, and save the pin to a board named for the broader topic. The long-tail phrases are the easiest to rank for; the top phrases make good board names.
- How often is it updated?
- The list is rebuilt from fresh data about once a month. The date under the title shows the last rebuild.
- Can I get phrases for my own topic?
- Yes. The keyword tool takes any seed phrase and returns the same data in about a second, with CSV export.
