Pinterest Pin Best Practices

  • Use a 2:3 aspect ratio (1000x1500 recommended) so your pin isn't cropped in the feed
  • Put your keyword and hook in the first 40 characters of your title, that's all the feed shows
  • Write descriptions for search and the close-up view, not the feed
  • Add a clear call to action in your description
  • Use high-quality vertical images that stay readable at feed size
  • Always link a relevant source URL, pins with destinations earn more clicks

How to Use Pinterest Pin Preview

Checking a pin takes under a minute:

1
Step 1

Upload your pin image

Drop in the image you plan to publish. PNG, JPG, and WebP all work. If it's not sized for Pinterest yet, run it through our Pinterest Image Resizer first, 1000x1500 previews best.

2
Step 2

Add your title and description

Paste the title and description you're planning to use. The counters show you where you stand against Pinterest's 100-character title and 500-character description limits. Still writing them? Our Pinterest Title & Description Generator drafts both in seconds.

3
Step 3

Check both views

The feed view shows how your pin appears while someone scrolls. The close-up view shows what they see after they tap. Check both, they display different amounts of your text.

Step 4

Fix what's cut off

If your title truncates mid-word or your image crops badly, adjust and preview again until it reads clean. Then publish with confidence.

Previewing pins one at a time?

If you're checking every pin by hand before posting, Supapin removes that step. It creates correctly sized pins with titles and descriptions written to fit, then schedules and publishes them for you.

How Much of Your Pin Title and Description Shows in the Feed

This is the part most pinners get wrong, and it's the reason previewing matters.

Your pin title can be up to 100 characters, but the feed only displays around the first 40 before cutting it off. Everything after that is invisible while someone scrolls, which is why your keyword and hook need to sit at the front of the title, not the end.

Your description can run up to 500 characters, but it barely appears in the feed at all. Descriptions show up in the close-up view and help Pinterest understand what your pin is about for search. So write descriptions for Pinterest's search engine and for the reader who already tapped, not for the feed.

The preview above shows you both views with your real text, so you can see exactly where your title gets cut before you publish. For the full character limits on titles, descriptions, boards, and bios, use our Pinterest Character Counter.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Pinterest Pin Preview

Previewing catches text truncation, image cropping, and layout surprises before your audience sees them. A pin with a clean title and uncropped image earns more clicks and saves, and once a pin is published, Pinterest doesn't let you change its image.
