Pinterest 101

Curious about Pinterest?
Particularly Pinterest for Business.
AKA “Pinterest Marketing”.

I learnt that:

1. Pinterest is a great source for Traffic
2. Pinterest is a great list building tool
3. Pinterest is great for bigamzn Affiliates

The dark side:
– affiliate spammers
– useless infographics
– scammers

Tips for avoiding Pinterest spam:
– Avoid clicking images with logos of big brands
– Avoid clicking images advertising free gift card
– Avoid repinning items with unusual user names

Pinterest hates affiliate links:
– Pin­ter­est is remov­ing affil­i­ate links such as Ama­zon As­so­ciates’ links in its fight against spam
– Pin­Dol­lars urls, affiliate links, are now being blocked as spam by Pinterest
