Furthermore, stats show that more and more men are signing up to use Pinterest every month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pinterest is used by a large variety of age groups, with the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.omnicoreagency.com\/pinterest-statistics\/#:~:text=1%20out%20of%202%20US,active%20pinners%20are%20below%2040.\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\"> median age being 40<\/a>. However, the majority of active users are under 40.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One stat that also caught my eye is that 40% of Pinterest users have a household income of over<a href=\"https:\/\/adespresso.com\/blog\/pinterest-marketing-statistics\/#:~:text=40%25%20of%20all%20pinners%20have,Pinterest%2C%20therefore%2C%20is%20high.\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $100,000.<\/a> This means that a lot of users will have disposable income. And for marketers and business owners who are using the platform, it\u2019s also good to know that a lot of Pinterest users actually visit the platform to research a product, so there is also buyer intent behind many searches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these factors make Pinterest a great platform for business owners, marketers, and entrepreneurs who want to grow their business on this platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Pinterest_Categories_Are_Available\"><\/span>What Pinterest Categories Are Available?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like on many other platforms, Pinterest has a huge range of categories available. Some of these perform exceptionally well which is usually down to them being extremely visual, or suiting the interests of the overall demographics of the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Categories like food, travel, or photography would be great examples of visual niches that perform very well here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a list of the 33 categories, or niches, that are currently offered on Pinterest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Food and drink<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hair and beauty<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Art<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cars and motorcycles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DIY and crafts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Science and nature<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Women\u2019s Fashion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Geek<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gardening<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outdoors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Illustrations and posters<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quotes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Men\u2019s fashion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tattoos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Health and fitness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>History<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Architecture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Holidays and events<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Home decor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Humor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Animals and pets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kids and parenting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sports<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photography<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Travel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weddings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Celebrities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other\/Everything else<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"How to See All Pinterest Categories - PinTalk.net - Pinterest Tutorials\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ik9ctVqWjx0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So, now we\u2019re clear on the 33 Pinterest categories that you can find on the network, I\u2019m also going to share the 10 most popular out of this list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing this will help you to decide how much time you should invest into your Pinterest marketing strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re reading this article as part of your niche research for affiliate business, then you may also want to know about the best products to promote on this platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that\u2019s the case then I share some of the best products that work well on this platform in my list of <a href=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/best-affiliate-programs-for-pinterest\/\">affiliate programs for Pinterest<\/a>.<gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_10_Most_Popular_Categories_On_Pinterest\"><\/span>The 10 Most Popular Categories On Pinterest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below I&#8217;ve ranked the most popular categories on Pinterest in order.

This is a great way to promote the Netflix affiliate program and earn some commissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:28px\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weddings\"><\/span>Weddings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wedding-couple.jpg\" alt=\"A couples wedding picture on Pinterest\" class=\"wp-image-919\" srcset=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wedding-couple.jpg 750w, https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/wedding-couple-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>One that may be quite surprising is weddings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, of course, it&#8217;s something that most people are interested in at some point in their lives. However, it&#8217;s usually a one-time occurrence for most people, so I thought this was a little surprising to be in the top 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, where do you think many people go for ideas and inspiration when they plan their weddings? Yep, probably Pinterest, which explains its popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:28px\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Holidays_Events\"><\/span>Holidays &amp; Events<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/soft-toy-reindeer.jpg\" alt=\"A soft toy showing the events and occasions that can be found on Pinterest\" class=\"wp-image-917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/soft-toy-reindeer.jpg 750w, https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/soft-toy-reindeer-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Lastly, there is also the holiday and events category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is similar to weddings, but for all other types of events like birthday parties, Christmas, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, Pinterest is the perfect place for ideas and inspiration for any type of event, which also explains the popularity of this niche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Most_Popular_Pinterest_Categories_%E2%80%93_Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Most Popular Pinterest Categories &#8211; Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you already have a business and are thinking of incorporating Pinterest as part of your marketing strategy, understanding the most popular Pinterest categories will help you get clear on how much time and money you would invest into this medium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to affiliate marketing, understanding the top categories of the platform will help you to  <a href=\"https:\/\/entrepreneurnut.com\/how-to-make-money-on-pinterest-without-a-blog\/\">make money on Pinterest<\/a>.
