tinle - Are you using a plugin for your social site? I was looking through the voting site you referenced earlier and it definitely gave me some ideas. Is there a plugin for wordpress that allows voting and list building based on the votes? I haven't found one.
One more question occurred to me OP - what percent of your pins have links to your mini-social site? All of them? Some of them?
There are alot of themes that are built around voting or ranking, and are easily available. One site you may want to look at is 9gag for inspiration, yes a lot of people know about it as one of the biggest 'fun post' viral sites out there but you have to look past the cover. Why do people keep coming back? What makes it viral?
Combine the answers with targeting only one niche (The one your E-commerce site is going after) and you will pull traffic and sales in no time.
The options are endless with plugins / themes / even clone sites made to clone popular ones, but I would always recommend going down your own road.
Just make the site interesting and share worthy for your niche, and most importantly listen to your visitors and the wants / needs.
Regarding the pinning link % I would always keep low especially if only using a few accounts. Keep it looking natural as Tinle said before you want to treat to bot like a person, its just doing the jobs you don't have time to do.
