Hi there mamas!
I thought I’d do something fun and free for ya! When you have a new blog sometimes it’s hard to get some engagement and shares on your blog eh?
I should know. I have another blog and it took me a year or more to really generate any comments and shares.
It wasn’t until this year that I finally figured how to get traffic, shares and comments on my blog posts!
It’s all about Pinterest groups! Just to let you know, for more freebies, make sure to check out these awesome posts:

Ah, Pinterest. Pinterest is my BFF, my distraction and my pleasure! Oh, and it has totally helped me triple my traffic too!
A big part of that growth is from joining Pinterest groups. I must be on 60+ groups by now and I know they are helping me reach more people and grow my brand.

Hi Elna,
Thanks for the suggestions! I’ve been following a bunch of mom groups but I can’t seem to figure out how to pin on their boards? Any tips?
Hi Diana,
Sometimes you have to do some digging. Find these owners on Facebook and see if you can reach them there. Or, try their contact page on their blog!
This was a great list! I’ve been looking for a few more group boards to join on Pinterest. Hopefully I am accepted into a couple. Thanks!
Hi Samantha!
Thanks so much and so happy you found some Pinterest groups for mom bloggers! Yay!
Thank you so much for this list. I’m a new mom blogger and i’ve definitely seen increase in my traffic after joining and pinning to group boards. They aren’t easy to find so thank you for compiling them here! It inspired me to start my own group board https://www.pinterest.com/AnotherMommyBlogger/the-mommy-guidebook/
Hi Sierrah!
That’s awesome! So glad you found some Pinterest groups to help you boost your blog traffic!
Thanks for this list! I just started my blog and I’m trying to learn how to use Pinterest, but it seems that most group boards are closed to new contributors or they’re not responding 🙁 I will definitely check out the boards on this list! Do you think it helps to join boards that’s about mom blogging when you have no pins to contribute though? For example, if my blog is about my first time mom journey and product reviews then it seems like I would have nothing to add to boards that are for mom blogging tips…
Hi Pam!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Yeah, a lot of group boards are not closed for new contributors but they will open a couple of times a year (sometimes). If you want to join mom blogging group boards just make sure the rules state you can also pin parenting types of pin and not about blogging for moms 🙂
Oh, and happy new year!!!
Okay thanks so much for your reply and advice! Btw, awesome Gravatar tutorial, my comments now look more legit! hehe 😀
Thanks for these! I feel like it’s so hard to find open + successful group boards. FYI, as of today (Jul. 26, 2017), #5, 8, 9 on your list are closed to new contributors… womp womp. Any other ideas?!
Hi Renee,
Thank you so much for letting me know! I fixed all of them and added brand new ones!
I am so joining every group on this list and I’m starting today. 🙂 I know I need to start really focusing on my Pinterest growth. I love all your blogging tips, Elna. Thanks so much!
Hi Jocelyn,
Thanks so much 🙂 <3 Glad you will join these groups. They're awesome and will totally help you get more traffic to your blog.
Thank you so much for posting this and I will check out the rest of your blog. I am new to blogging and excited to build my community larger. This post was extremely helpful in navigating the Pinterest community.
Thanks!
Hi Anais,
Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy and good luck 🙂
I love it?Great list! Thanks so much for saving me time!
I have tried to join a few boards but have not had much success. What is the best way to join group boards?
Hi Anne,
First you want to make sure that the groups are still accepting contributors. If they are read the guidelines. If they want you to email them I usually put the name of the group board in the email subject line.
In your email, mention who you are and your blog as well as your intended audience. Then give links to your blog, Pinterest profile and your Pinterest email!
Good luck!
Thanks for this list! I’ve been looking for something like this since I started blogging! I also have a group board for moms! It’s called The Mother Board and I would love to add some new contributors! Find me on Pinterest- Swaddles n’ Bottles
Hey Caroline,
Love it! The name is perfect! I will find you and thanks 🙂
