Pinterest Shadow Banned Account Issue

[bl4cksta]

Hey guys,

I am on pinterest business for 6-7 months. I am using my own script to pin on pinterest with different kind of subdomains (almost 100 subdomains). At the begining of this month, Pinterest started to suspend and shadow ban my accounts. I've checked Pinterest has some minor changes on the API. It could be because of the changes. I've almost 100 accounts and 100 sub domains. 1 account using 1 proxy. Proxies are totally clean cuz I've created them myself. When I created a new account, it doesn't shadowed. After a couple of hours or days (max 2 days) it goes shadow ban.

Does anyone facing with same issue? Do you guys know any solution?

Most propably its the proxies issue or they made a connection between your accounts. Try it in different device and internet comnection.

as you possibly know, There are too much techniques that you can understand. I am 100% sure that the accounts are shadow banned. Even if I search accounts manually, it's not showing on the search bar which means that shadow banned.

I will try it with my local internet and let you guys know. But I think that it's all about the new v3 api of pinterest. In my opinion, pinterest could started to fight with spam seriously as same as the tw,fb and ig cases.

For what it's worth, I've seen it before where my account wouldn't show up when I searched for it until it was a certain amount of days old.

Btw, I check noindex_reason param returning from the api which means that you have shadow banned

try not to add verified website to your acc.

 

[bl4cksta]

I've already tried with 3 different kind of domains 1 verified, 1 unverified, 1 redirect however noting changed. It seems to be Pinterest has some good preventions with their new backend implementation.

If you are using your own tools, try changing agent header in the http request

Does pinterest checking similar browser agents from similar ip history?

The question is, where are you getting your images from?

Admittedly I'm not exactly familiar with Pinterest's backend or API. Does it give a reason?

I'm finding if I go to pinterest.com (that URL specifically) I can find a noindex_reason param with no value given (""). My account isn't shadowbanned though. Does yours have a different value?

Due to my researches for 6 months. I am pretty sure that, If there is owner_request written as a value of noindex_reason param and false as a value of index params meaning that account is shadowed or ghosted. If there is something like "" everything OK. Actually, I don't know it's returning on pinterest.com but on backend request you can check it on UserResource/get endpoint while inspecting network via chrome
