Pinterest Invitations Within 24 Hours Using 3 Simple Steps

Considered as a social network for ladies, Pinterest has grown from being a ladies-only virtual pinboard to a hot social service that lets anyone create their own pinboards and share them to other users. In just a few months, Pinterest has become the hottest social service from its launch in early 2012 even though it is an invite-only website.

Did you know that Pinterest has more referral traffic than Youtube, LinkedIn and Google+? Even if you combine these 3 social networking giants, Pinterest's referral traffic rate is still better. Because of this, it's not that difficult to get started with Pinterest within a day or two, but here are three simple steps on getting a Pinterest invitation within 24 hours:

Step 1: Request an Invite

There are different ways on getting invited to Pinterest. First, you can get an invite from the Pinterest Team by means of going directly to their website and clicking "Request and Invite". You will have to enter your email address there. An alternative way is to get some help from your friends who are already using Pinterest. Just update your status on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter regarding your wish to be invited to Pinterest, and wait for a couple of minutes for one or more friends to send you your most-awaited Pinterest request. Another way is to go to online forums and request invites from Pinterest users. One of these is Mashable.com where you can simply put your email address and wait for someone to invite you on Pinterest. Furthermore, you may join various contests and win an invite as a prize just for fun.

Step 2: Open Your Email

Pinterest will send you an email regarding the invitation that someone sent you with regards to signing up for Pinterest. Be careful about opening links, though. Read first the URL link and the email to confirm that the invitation really came from Pinterest and the person from whom you requested the invite.

Step 3: Get Started

After clicking the link sent by Pinterest, you will be directed to the page where you can create your account and get started. Before creating your own virtual board, you may want to browse other user's pinboards first and explore the features to maximize your Pinterest experience.

If you liked Pinterest, you may send Pinterest invitations to your friends and colleagues using Facebook or Pinterest.com. You may also send invites to people at online forums.
