Here's Why Your Pinterest Traffic Dropped

[WORK@HOME]

I stopped doing Pinterest some time ago, but still have a few profiles up that barely get traffic. The reason your traffic dropped is Pinterest will not let non members click on your pin and go to your site. When a user clicks on your pin, they are prompted to signup to be redirected to your site.

This will result in a 85% traffic loss. Not to mention Pinterest is starting to lose popularity it seems. There are way better ways to invest your time.

Thought I would share a FYI seeing nobody has really talked about it..

Pinterest losing popularity means some other big fish is getting the attention. I wonder who the big fish is.

Instagram is the new Pinterest , but I prefer Pinterest .It's a pity they are killing it like this .They know they have big competitors so they should be more flexible instead of limiting everything.

While I've stopped pinterest and everything about it, doing what you just said means they're about to shoot themselves in the foot...

Pinterest was a good nsource of traffic for me while it lasted. Well, I moved

Nowadays most of the traffic is from App only, traffic from website (Desktop) dropped significantly.

You are saying that 85% of the pins where found from outside Pinterest (example: from Google) by non Pinterest members?
