Fourth Metrics Update

Welcome to the fourth metrics update. Below you can see that 4 new accounts are continuing to experience fast growth (with slower WoW growth in the Tattoo account which was the early winner). Your Color World is staying stagnant providing a case study to the effect of stopping and restarting consistent pin posting. It will be interesting to see if this account can recover and how long that will take- does Pinterest punish pins of accounts like this forever?

Increasing clicks coming in will allow me to do 2 things going forward:

• Perform analysis on my pins to see what influences number of clicks. I am posting pins with different title and description strategies, different college and overlay text styles and using several image models. I will explore how these impact pin performance and adjust posting accordingly.

• Begin to turn these blogs into more functional websites and possibly stand alone businesses. Once I reach 100 clicks/day I believe I will have enough traffic to begin testing new features beyond the blogs to keep visitors engaged. Ideas include:

  • a tattoo generator for You Make Tattoos

  • an iPhone wallpaper generator for Look At This Wallpaper

  • a custom interior design explorer where users can upload pictures and experiment with different interior themes for their homes for Any Era Design

  • a hairstyle experiment tool where users can upload pictures of themselves and try different hairstyles for What If Hair.

With Pinterest heavily weighing if visitors stay on a site for more than 10 seconds in their pin ranking algorithm I hope that adding interactive experiences would lead to more impressions.
