Any photo can be pinned so ?? FB will just not allow it & some other sites are the same. All our posts are pinnable.

You have to load the program or the add-on to get it done.

David, I think it depends on type of website.  As others have mentioned if the reader is a big Pinterest fan, they may have installed a Pinterest button on their browser.

If you're talking about a Wordpress site, there seem to be various plugins that can be installed on your site that create the "pin" option when someone hovers over your photos.  See link:  https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/pinterest/

Just add a social media sharing plugin. There are tons out there.

 

The best one is Social warfare, but there is a small cost.  This best because you can customize which pin/pins can be shared/which can't and the alt text to be used...as well as use for other social media.  It's also best because it uses the least amount of resources.  Most social media plugins really slow down your site, and this one has the least impact on site speed.

I had an extension on FireFox to allow for pinning of images.  I think it was called Pin-it or something to that effect.

I use a plu-in on my Wordpress site, Hover Pin It, or something like that. Every image pretty much can be pinned. Very effective, and driving a lot of traffic to it.
