Traffic Engine Pro

A full campaign builder that creates an entire SEO content system around one product or niche — pin titles, hooks, board suggestions, image prompts, and a full traffic blog post all at once.

2
Choose your images Pick which Etsy product images to include in the content. These appear in the traffic page preview and blog exports.
3
Generate the campaign Click Generate. Postia produces: keyword clusters, content angles, a traffic page (400–800 words), pin titles, descriptions, board name ideas, and AI image prompts.
4
Review each section Every section has a Copy button. Use individual sections as needed, or export the full traffic page to your blog.
5
Generate AI pin images Each image prompt has a Generate button — click it to create a 2:3 ratio Pinterest image. A progress bar shows generation status. Preview and download directly.
6
Select and schedule pins Tick the pin cards you want, then click Schedule Selected. You can edit each pin's title, description, board, date and time in the scheduler modal.

SEO Scorer: Below the traffic page preview is an automatic SEO score (0–100). It checks keyword placement, word count, H2 headings, and CTA presence. Aim for 75+.

Board suggestions: Click "+ Create on Pinterest" next to any board name idea — it pre-fills the board name and description so you can generate a cover and create it in one step.

Scheduler

View and manage all your scheduled, posted and failed pins in one place.

  • Pending tab — pins waiting to be posted. Edit the scheduled time if needed.
  • Posted tab — successfully published pins with their Pinterest post ID.
  • Failed tab — pins that couldn't post, with the error message. You can retry these.

Pinterest only allows up to 25 fresh pins per day per account. Postia enforces your plan limit (Starter 5/day · Pro 20/day · Turbo 50/day) to keep your account safe.

Pins are posted at the exact time shown in your timezone. Make sure your timezone is set correctly in the scheduler modal.

Analytics

Track impressions, saves, pin clicks, and link clicks for every posted pin. Data is pulled directly from Pinterest and auto-refreshes every 60 seconds on this page.

  • Impressions — how many times Pinterest showed your pin in feeds and search
  • Saves — how many people saved it to their own boards
  • Pin Clicks — taps on the pin to view it full-size
  • Link Clicks — taps on the link that go to your Etsy shop

Pinterest analytics usually take 24–48 hours to appear after a pin is posted. If you see "—" for metrics, check back the next day.

If you see a 403 error notice, your Pinterest token needs refreshing — go to Settings and reconnect Pinterest.

Pinterest Boards & Board Covers

Create new Pinterest boards and set a beautiful AI cover image without leaving Postia.

1
Open the board creator In the scheduler modal, click "+ New Board", or click "+ Create on Pinterest" next to any Traffic Engine board suggestion.
2
Name and describe your board The board name and idea field are pre-filled when you arrive from Traffic Engine suggestions.
3
Generate a cover image Click "Generate Cover Image" — Postia creates a branded Pinterest-style square image using AI.
4
Create Board Click "Create Board". Postia creates the board on Pinterest AND automatically posts the cover image as the first pin so Pinterest displays it as the board thumbnail.

Pinterest uses the most recent pin as the board cover. Posting the cover image immediately after board creation ensures it stays as the cover.

AI Image Generation

Postia generates Pinterest-native 2:3 ratio images (1000×1500px) optimised for Pinterest's recommended aspect ratio.

  • Traffic Engine image prompts — click Generate next to any prompt card. A progress bar tracks generation (~20–40 seconds). Preview the result in a lightbox, download it, or use it as the pin image.
  • Custom Pins — upload your product photo and Postia composites it onto an AI-generated Pinterest background. Your product stays pixel-perfect.
  • Board covers — generated as a 1:1 square image branded for your board topic.

AI image generation uses your monthly render quota. Renders reset on the 1st of each month. Check your remaining renders on the dashboard.

All AI images are automatically saved to your Image Library and uploaded to cloud storage so they survive container restarts and remain accessible to Pinterest when posting.

Image Library

Every AI-generated image is saved to your library. Access it from the nav menu to reuse images across multiple pins without regenerating them.

  • Click any image to preview it full-size
  • Download images directly from the library
  • Images are stored in cloud storage and stay available even after container restarts
