I Do This To Get $15,671 Ad Revenue (Increase RPMs and Traffic)
Here are exact optimizations and settings I use for maximizing at least 3X Ad display revenue.
I have something exciting to share - my Pinterest traffic is making serious money over the years! I just increased my monthly revenue by 28% for 1 of my blog with one simple change: interlinking my high-traffic Pinterest posts with my top RPM content.

End of Ad
Let me break down exactly how I did this and share the complete monetization playbook I use for maximizing at least 2X Pinterest traffic revenue.
Setting Up Your Content for Maximum RPM
First, let's get your content optimized for maximum earnings. After analyzing years of data, here are the exact technical specs that work best:
Set your font size to 20px minimum (I've tested 18-22px range)
Use 1.6-1.8 line height spacing for optimal readability
Break content into shorter 2-3 sentence paragraphs
Create content containers between 728-1024px width
Include plenty of high-quality original images with spacing
Aim for 1200-1800 words per post for ideal ad placement
Here's why these matter: When your content is easy to read and digest, visitors stay longer and engage more.
More engagement = More Stay Time = higher RPMs. Simple as that.
The High-Traffic + High-RPM Content Strategy
Here's the exact process that got me that 28% revenue boost:
Pull up your top 25 Pinterest traffic posts
Identify your highest RPM content (often these are different posts)
Add 4-6 contextual links from high-traffic posts to high-RPM posts
Place these links after 25% of the content
Use compelling link text that makes readers want to click
Seasonal RPM Optimization
RPMs fluctuate dramatically by season. Here's how to maximize each period:
Q1 (January-March):
Focus on new year, organization, and fresh start content
Update old Valentine's Day and spring prep content
Start creating summer content
Q2 (April-June):
Heavy on outdoor, gardening, and summer prep content (According your niche)
Begin creating back-to-school content
Plan holiday content strategy
Q3 (July-September):
Back-to-school and fall preparation posts
Start publishing holiday content
Update old winter content
Q4 (October-December):
Holiday gift guides and seasonal content
Update popular summer content for next year
Create new year planning content
Critical RPM Factors to Remember
Your RPMs will vary based on:
Your niche and topics
Traffic geography (US traffic typically earns more)
Seasonal factors
User engagement metrics (Scroll depth and Session Time etc.)
Overall content quality
Don't get discouraged comparing your RPMs to others. Focus on improving your own metrics over time.
Next Steps
Start with the technical optimizations - they're quick wins that make everything else work better. Then focus on strategic interlinking between your high-traffic and high-RPM posts.
Traffic alone isn't enough. The key is engaging that traffic and monetizing it effectively through multiple streams.
Keep testing different strategies and track your results. What works for one site may not work for another. The key is finding the right mix for your specific audience and niche.
