Frequently asked questions

What is Pinterest alt text?

Pinterest alt text is a text description of your pin image that helps visually impaired users understand your content and helps Pinterest's search algorithm categorize your pin for relevant searches.

Does alt text help Pinterest SEO?

Yes. Pinterest uses alt text as one of the signals to understand what your pin is about. Pins with descriptive, keyword-relevant alt text tend to perform better in Pinterest search results.

How long should Pinterest alt text be?

Keep alt text under 125 characters for optimal accessibility. Pinterest allows up to 500 characters, but shorter, focused descriptions perform better.

Should I put keywords in my Pinterest alt text?

Yes, but naturally. Include your target keyword if it accurately describes the image. Don't stuff keywords or write descriptions that don't match the actual image.

Is alt text the same as pin description?

No. Alt text describes the image itself for accessibility and SEO. Pin description provides context, calls-to-action, and additional keywords about the content the pin links to.
