Pinterest Character Counter

Pinterest is a search engine rather than a social feed, so title and description text keeps earning impressions for months. The hard limit on a pin title is 100 characters, but the grid only shows around 30.

Check your pin copy against every Pinterest field below before scheduling.

        Tips for writing Pinterest copy

        • Write the title for search, not for style - Pinterest indexes it directly.
        • Keep grid-visible text inside the first 30 characters.
        • Descriptions run to 500 characters; use two or three keyword-rich sentences.
        • Board titles cap at 50 characters - name them the way people search.
