Hi, I am a newbie on social media traffic field. I have a shopify shop with one domain. I started my first journey with 10 pinterest accounts on November 24th. So far, I've pin 1500 images, but there's no traffic. I'd like to discuss my journey here and see if there are any mistakes.
My plan:Test with ten Pinterest accounts with USA profiles (start from November 24). If I find a effective method I will scale to 100 accounts soon.
1. VPS: Located in USA.
2. Tool: A bot that almost everyone here knows.
3. Accounts: I bought them. When I got them, they were blank except for the mailbox. I uploaded the avatars(have changed the MD5) and filled in the basic information manually. I started using them to pin 2 months later.
4. Proxies: 2 accounts per proxy. USA dedicated proxies.
5. Campaign: Pin 100 product images in each account every day. I have prepared 4000 different original pictures( made by myself) in one folder. These pictures are enough for one month in my plan. I set the campaign to take 100 images from the folder and each image will be sent to all accounts. I set the bot to make each pin unique.
6. Source URL: Each pin will direct to one collection of my shop. I haven't started using short links yet. Just copied the website address as the source url. (I'm confused about the LINK. I hope someone can guide me)
7. Time setting: Posting 100 times from 10:00AM to 9:00 PM each day. No action on Monday. The interval for each timer are 3-9 minutes. Wait around 60 seconds before publishing the same post list item on a new destination.
8. Other action: No. No repin/ follow/ unfollow or anything else. Just pin to my own boards.
9. Effect for now: No follower to my Pinterst accounts. No traffic to my website after pinning 1500 images.

I don't believe the social media platform will ban all business referrals. Or the business players will all leave, the Platform activity and content quality will be greatly reduced. If my journey doesn't work, there must be some mistakes. Please tell me or discuss here if you find them.

In order to get traffic, you need to work well on the photos to make them quality. Analyze keywords and head tags. You need to make a viral header. And then you will have traffic.
 
do you find any problem when following other account? my account is get problem when i click follow button. after i clicked it, the follow button become active again. i do not know whether it is shadowbanned or not.

I can follow and unfollow.
 
your accounts are shadow banned... you should have warmed up your accounts first before heavy actions.

100 uploads per account everyday is too much.
don't point each pin to your website. 1/10 is decent.. the lower the better.
you have to do other actions like follow, unfollow, repin... don't just upload. you need to gather followers to spread your pins/links.
don't be aggressive in your account actions.
set the bot to act like a human being..

shadow ban may take months, so it's better to start over and take it slow.

there are guides about pinterest marketing here in bhw. look it up! :)

Pinterest? Pinterest sucks for traffic. I have no idea why you are wasting your time on pinterest.
 
U change ur mind mate. Still it's a force

70-80% is women, this is a fact, so women really need to be your target market or you have a problem. I have 30,000 followers and it does absolutely nothing for me. It never did. People don't click the links. I already tried advertising with pinterest and it was shit.

So strange. I've been studying the threads about Pinterest for a while. When concerning Pinterest, some said it's a gold mine, some said it's totally useless. Why is that?
The reason why I chose Pinterest is that it allows to add source links to pictures, so it can directly drive traffic to the website. I chose the method I am using now because I ever read a thread here before. That person said that he used to get a lot of traffic in a similar simple way, but he didn't disclose more details. If 30000 followers 0 click, it seems that I need to reevaluate this platform.
 
You can focus on just 1 main account, follow it with your bots, post pins there and follow 20-30 people/day.
Re-pin from your other accounts.
Bingo.
 
Pooking forward for a similar journey, whats your niche?
