If you have a Family history blog or genealogy business, one of the best places to share articles and resources is Pinterest! But we genealogists and family history lovers are a rather niche bunch, so instead of just randomly posting pins, why not connect and share with people who actually WANT to see the same things you do?
Get your research, tips & tricks, and family history products in front of the people who actually want to see them, and your efforts will have a lot more impact. I scoured the internet to find the best genealogy themed group Pinterest boards out there. These are all welcoming new members. See which ones are relevant for you, and send them some requests today.
