Hello,

Thanks for the question. It's difficult to guide you because you have not provided us any information on your website. There are few different ways to have a Pinterest badge on a website, so I'll just try to be general. If you are simply using an image as an icon that people can click on to get to your website, then you will need to find the code for link on the webpage that you see the link. You can use the cPanel File Manager to get to your files if you are an InMotion Hosting customer. You would simply have to replace the link with the new link leading to your new Pinterest account. The link may look like this:

< A HREF="http://www.pinterest.com/account_name" >< IMG SRC="pinterest-icon.gif" >< /A >

You can always edit the web page that you're viewing if it's a static file. For example, if you are viewing your home page, it may look like this: http://mydomain.com/index.htm. In this case, you would look for the index.htm file and then open with an editor in the cPanel File manager.
If you're using a specific software for your website like WordPress, they often have plugins that may be used to link to social media sites like Pinterest. In that case, you would need to find the plugin control, then change the link defined for the specific social media website.

I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance. Regards, Arnel C.
