Best for Pinterest keyword research and pin rankings

PinClicks is keyword research for Pinterest, with search volume for 20 million+ Pinterest keywords, the top pins for any search, and where your own pins rank. It covers Pinterest only, from scraped public pages. Pin Pro at $29 a month tracks 25 rankings with no exports, the trial is 5 days, and its terms and FAQ disagree on refunds.

Who PinClicks is for

  • Fits if Pinterest sends a large share of your blog's or shop's traffic
  • Works for writing pin titles and descriptions from the words people search on Pinterest

Who PinClicks is not for

  • Skip it if Pinterest isn't where your traffic comes from, as it covers nothing else
  • Tight if you're on Pin Pro: 25 tracked rankings, and no exports, custom lists or account following
  • Not for you if you need more than 5 days to decide, as the trial is 5 days and one per person
  • Watch out: the terms say fees are non-refundable, while the pricing FAQ says you can ask for a refund
  • Watch out: its data is scraped from public Pinterest pages, and it isn't affiliated with Pinterest

Why PinClicks gets a 1.8

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyPin Pro is $29 a month, at the dearer end of this category, or $249 a year, about $20.75 a month. It tracks only 25 rankings and has no exports; Pin Plus, with 5,000 rankings, is $49 a month or $399 a year.
  • DFree plan and trialNo free plan. The trial gives full Pin Plus with no card, but it's 5 days, shorter than a week, and it's one per person or business.
  • CFeaturesPinterest keyword volumes, top pins with a Pin Score, any account's rankings, rank tracking and annotation keywords. It does Pinterest research fully, but that's a smaller job, and the data is scraped from public Pinterest pages.
  • CEase of useNo rating on record. A keyword search works straight away, but the plans are built around tracking rankings, so there are keywords and pins to set up before the main part pays off.
  • CPlatforms and integrationsWeb plus a Chrome extension for customers, with no desktop or phone app and no API. It covers Pinterest only.

Keep PinClicks, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace PinClicks you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 48 of the 51 other keyword research tools grade higher. It costs $348 a year.

What you could not

  • Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
  • Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.

What this rests on. PinClicks’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is PinClicks?

PinClicks is a web-based research tool for Pinterest. It shows search volume for more than 20 million Pinterest keywords, the top pins and their stats for any search, and keyword rankings for any account, and it tracks where your own pins rank in Pinterest search. Plans are priced by how many keyword rankings you track.

Worth knowing

  • It covers Pinterest only, using data scraped from public Pinterest pages, and is not affiliated with Pinterest.
  • Pin Pro tracks just 25 keyword rankings and has no exports, custom lists or account following; those need Pin Plus.
  • The terms say fees are non-refundable, while the pricing FAQ says a refund can be requested.
  • Each person or business gets one free trial.
