How to make beginner Craigslist-style seller affiliate pin
-
Pick three items you know
Start with gear in your own garage — the dolly, the camera light, the packing tape you rebuy. Knowing the items is the whole skill; the design is already handled for you.
-
Type the names, prices and verdict
One row per item with its current price, then a single line saying who the top pick is for. The sample text shows the format until you replace it, and you can leave a row empty if you only have two picks.
-
Download and disclose
Turn on the disclosure line that matches how you earn, pick a color and download the PNG. Upload it to Pinterest and link to the full roundup post so readers can click through to the products.
Tips for beginner affiliate pins
Pick three items you know, type their names and prices, add a photo and download the PNG. The sample pin shows the finished look while you fill in your own, and the disclosure toggle makes sure the pin is honest from day one.
Start with what is in your own garage
The best first roundup is the gear you reach for on every job. You can describe it honestly without research, and your enthusiasm shows. Save the aspirational categories for later, when you have tested more things. A small true list beats a large guessed one every time.
One category per pin
Best Moving Dollies Under $100 is a pin. My Favorite Moving and Photo and Cleaning Gear is a mess. A single category gives the headline a clear promise and gives Pinterest a clear topic, which is what decides which searches your pin appears in.
Add the disclosure from day one
One honest line at the bottom of the pin costs nothing and protects everything. Readers forgive commissions; they do not forgive hidden ones. Building the habit on your first pin means every pin after it is already compliant and trustworthy.

Beginner craigslist-style seller affiliate pin FAQs
What is an affiliate pin?
It is a roundup pin — a headline, three ranked picks with prices and a short verdict — that links to a post where your affiliate links live. When a reader buys through those links, you earn a commission.
Do I need a website to start?
The pin should link somewhere the picks can be clicked, usually a short roundup post on a blog. Many sellers publish a simple three-item post first. The pin is the promotion; the post is where the links live.
How many picks belong on a first pin?
Three is the right number: enough to compare, few enough to type in one sitting. Leave a row empty if you only have two — the layout hides it and the pin still reads cleanly.
Is the disclosure really necessary?
Yes, whenever a link earns you a commission. The maker includes a toggle for the disclosure line so your first pin is already honest and compliant without extra research.
Is this maker free for beginners?
Yes. No sign-up, no watermark and nothing to install. Type your three picks, download the PNG and publish — the first pin and the hundredth cost the same: nothing.
Is this pin maker really free with no watermark?
Yes. Every layout, size and export is free, with no sign-up and no watermark on the PNG. The only branding on your pin is the site name you type in.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Photos are processed inside your browser tab and never sent to a server. Closing the tab discards them.
