Simple, on the Pinterest search box if anyone has some knowledge about keyword research so just like keyword research on Google then you will know how to do keyword research on the Pinterest search box

2. Then type cooking recipes in the Pinterest search box and you will see more keywords that you can make like.  (Cooking recipes for teenagers) can be a keyword
3. Now If you select a keyword then go and check how many pins that keyword has and how are pins.
4. If you want to get ranked on a keyword then select a long tail keyword.                (10 Cooking recipes for teenagers in London) this is a long tail keyword and the longer keyword you have more easy for you to rank on it but the audience is also on the long tail keyword is low, so keep it in mind.
