  Many of our clients use Pinterest and pin photos from our official website. we use WP.com for our company blog, and it would be very helpful if they could pin photos here as well.

  We cannot use third party JavaScript widgets on WordPress.COM blogs for security reasons. https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  What you ask for can only be done on a WordPress.ORG install. Read the differences here please http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Added information:
  The follow the Pinterest Site Verification instructions provided in the support docs which are all at http://support.wordpress.com
  Go to http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/#pinterest-site-verification

  Go to Dashboard > Sharing please and use this guide http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#customize-your-services to enable a sharing icon so it will display under each post.

  The “Pin it” hover button has been added there. It now gets auto-enabled if you have connected Pinterest in Settings > Sharing and selected the “Official buttons” option for button style setting.

  Be aware that there is a browser add-on visitors can use to pin images. https://help.pinterest.com/en/articles/add-pin-it-button-your-browser#Web
