Table of Content
If you are following Pinterest updates and changes closely, you probably noticed that 2018 is the year when Pinterest started really opening up a little more info to marketers, bloggers, content creators. Yes, Pinterest even organized the first-ever conference for content creators. Email creators-support @ pinterest.com – this address was shared by Pinterest on their conference for content creators. This day many bloggers and Pinterest marketers woke up to see their domains marked as spam on Pinterest. This very blog you are reading now was also blocked and you can’t imagine how I was worried about it – all my Pinterest traffic was gone for nearly 24 hours. All business accounts on Pinterest can now create Carousel Pins – this is a new type of pins which allows up to 5 different images published as a slider under the same pin URL.
Pin title field in Tailwind also helps with your pins linked to your claimed social accounts . Pinterest added censored search results for a variety of keywords related to the COVID-19 as more and more content creators started creating pins around this topic. Pinterest shows for most of the keywords related to Coronavirus, only the results from WHO. Also, there is a warning that posting pins related to Covid-19, is against the platform’s Community Guidelines, and can be flagged. Because a lot of established bloggers who started on Pinterest years ago were pretty happy with their high following numbers.
Ongoing Pinterest Update – Algorithm 2018
As Pinterest wants to keep up with the trends and popular formats on other social media platforms, they are giving a lot more space in search results and in the feed to Idea Pins . This type of pins doesn’t allow content creators to add direct links to their pages, so they are not generating as much traffic as image pins. In the first part of August 2019, Pinterest made a new major spam clean-up, similar to what happened around the same time in 2018. Many sites (especially in the money-making niche) were blocked for about a week. Most of the legit bloggers were unblocked, but for some sites, the Pinterest team decided to keep them blocked or unblocked the domains while keeping their Pinterest accounts suspended. If you want to know how to act if your account was suspended or your site was blocked, on Pinterest, check out this post.
Throughout the entire month of January 2020, Pinterest has been doing a major spam clean-up, you can read about more of similar clean-ups in the post below. It looks like Pinterest makes them at least a few times a year. This time, sites across all the niches are being blocked, accounts suspended without any warning.
Pinterest Disapproved BoardBooster Scheduler
By saving first to your own board, you help Pinterest boost your pin, because they claim to give priority to the pins saved by content creators. We just didn’t realize that one day we’ll actually see or feel the algorithm update affecting our traffic from this platform. Luckily, since November this problem is solved.
We seek to ensure that all of the data presented on the site regarding new homes and new home communities is current and accurate. However, we do not assume any liability for inaccuracies. It is your responsibility to independently verify the information on the site. We appreciated so much the information found on this site, including a mortgage calculator, builder information, and a myriad of other resources all in one place.
January Trending Topics and High-Performing Content Ideas
Apparently, too many bloggers were repinning their own exactly the same pins too many times to multiple boards. As a consequence, even legit pinners on those boards get low engagement scores for their pins and a confusing keyword context based on all the spam saved to the board previously. Out of all the information that was presented to the blogging community lately, not all “news” truly new or part of a Pinterest update. They just never spoke so openly about the ways you should promote your content on their platform.
“No—sometimes it’s just good,” he said.Brenda similarly complimented how good-natured theHome Alonestar is. “You can’t be around him and not be happy,” she told the outlet. Hi, unfortunately, some people mindlessly remove the pin description when removing, or they don’t notice that it was removed at all. You can always put the credit/location of your image on your Pin title instead or put a watermark on the image itself. Hi Anastasia, I noticed that my monthly viewers is decreasing day by day. And one more thing that post clicks and saves are also decreasing from last 7 days. I believe that by the time you are reading this post, this feature works on all Pinterest accounts.
To create a video pin, you need to click on the red “plus” in the right corner of your account, to Create Pin. Most of the accounts see among the types of files you can upload, videos. Videos pins used to be only an option for promoted pins, but in March 2019 Pinterest made videos available to the majority of accounts on the platform, to upload them as regular . Last summer, if you scroll down this post, a similar wave of blocked domains happened but that one was resolved for me in 12 hours, for most of the bloggers within 2-3 days. On the other hand, since so much space is given to Idea pins, regular pins are not getting as many eyes and clicks as they used to. Idea pins can bring traffic indirectly – users would have to click on the Pinterest profile that created the pin, and from there they might end up on your website’s homepage.
Pinterest claims they have a 2-hour delay in reporting the data. If you even upload the same exact image from the same exact post URL, Pinterest will recognize the image as an existent pin and in the majority of cases will immediately show you the summed up stats for that pin. Pinterest reps explained that group boards should be only used for collaborations on “projects”.
It’s the second mode of using Pinterest after the Smart Home feed – your“Following” feed. The reach number in your profile shows how many Pinterest users interacted with your Pins in the last 30 days. They used the term “early engagement”, which is also well-known in regards to the Instagram algorithm. If your content gets good engagement soon after publication, chances are this content might get an additional boost from the platform’s algorithm. If this is your case, time for a change has come. Did you notice that in their Best practices, Pinterest recommends creating at least 5 boards for each topic we cover in the blog or website?
You might want to contact Pinterest Help Center for this one. I am a health blogger so I have to share a diet plan and exercises, which will be better for me. The plus sign in the upper right corner only gives me the option of creating a pin, a carousel, or ads. All of a sudden I have no blank board that says create a board. I also wrote a post earlier from which you can find out everything aboutPinterest changesthat happened in 2017 and earlier. Also, I do it to save time for my students and to be able to provide the most recent and comprehensive information in myPinterest SEO Traffic Secrets Course.
