  Hi
  I would like to be able to make rich pins of my articles in Pinterest. In order to do this, I need to integrate a code in my blog. For now, I don’t pay for my website, and I think this is why I haven’t been able to integrate this code.

  Do you know how I could do to be able to make rich pin of articles on my blog? Do I need to take a plan, and if I do, is the “personal” plan enough? Or do I have to go for the premium?

  Thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Paulinescobar,

  In order to have rich pins on your articles. you will have to upgrade to the Business plan.

  The Business plan gives you the possibility to install the plugin required to integrate Pinterest the way you want it.

  Thanks,

  Nicolas

  Hello,

  Please reference this thread courtesy of @timethief. I think it is relelvant per your question and provides great detail.

  You can also see below per @timetheif:

  I will post all that is available for wordpress.COM hosted sites regardless of upgrades below.

  The only code that will work for Pinterest site verification of a wordpress.com blog is described here https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/#pinterest-site-verification and you must be logged into Pinterest when you are trying to verify?

  The Pinterest “Pin It” hover button will automatically appear on your WordPress.com blog if you have added Pinterest as a sharing button on your Settings > Sharing page and if you are also using the “Official buttons” for the style of the buttons (you can change it on that same settings page).

  We can hover over any image in a post and pin it if we are logged into Pinterest. If you have enabled the official buttons for sharing, a “Pin It” hover button will automatically appear for your images. https://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/ All we do after clicking the share button is choose one of the images displayed in the post to pin. It’s as easy as pie. ;)

  See how to install the Pinterest browser button:
  Google Chrome
  Mozilla Firefox
  Internet Explorer
  Safari
  Microsoft Edge

  Also, note that you can embed from Pinterest https://en.support.wordpress.com/embed-from-pinterest/
  And here’s the Sharing link https://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/

  Hi Nicolanglais
  Ah ok, so the Businesss Plan is the only one that will allow me to rich pin my blog? With the Premium, its not possible?

  If I understood correctly, the Yoast SEO plugin allows for rich pins. To add this plugin, is the personal or premium plan enough?

  Hi @paulinescobar, to add plugins, such as Yoast SEO, would require the Business plan. That option is not available with the Personal or Premium plans.
