Notes

  • Once confirmed your blog on your Pinterest account, you can remove the meta tag from your HTML code.
  • You have only one website on your Pinterest profile. If you have multiple Pinterest accounts, you can remove the website at anytime from one Pinterest account and then confirm it on your other Pinterest account.
