Unfortunately they have removed other social media shares (no idea why) but there is a nice hack for twitter in one of my other guides.
Your welcome. With a bit of imagination you can twist this further for results.

Checked today, and the Social Shares feature is back
They have changed how you view the Pinterest shares, but it is still very easy. Also, there is a nice new chart in the details for social shares, including Pinterest.
So this Hack is Back baby!

I contacted them on YouTube about a week ago and made a fus about it
So we have you to thank, nice one.
Someone PM'd me asking how it was going for me now and what stats I am getting. So I thought I would share some info from 1 of my accounts (3 months old).
Hope that answers a few questions.

Brilliant, thank you for the hack. It is particularly helpful to see the approach, which could be used in other tools and in identifying other low hanging fruits.
For a moment it felt like a bummer due to the social filter block, but thankfully (perhaps to you @juelzkid), it is back.
@fasttrak looking forward to the next Ahrefs hacks you will share, as well as the guide you were mentioning in reference to hacks with free tools.
Will be following closely, cheers!

can we
can we also get a free trial on ahrefs?Ahrefs has a LOT of hidden gems which can help you make a decent amount of money. Most IM'ers focus on competitor analysis and KW research, but they miss some of the best hacks that Ahrefs has to offer.
So, after reading @Geasy's recent post and posting another trick I find useful yesterday, I thought I would share 4 other 'Hacks' which help me drive easy traffic to my site without any link building, and build killer content.
I will post a new Hack every week, so if you like what you see, be sure to check back for more.
Part 1 - Pinterest Hack
Pinterest is a great, no effort way to generate huge amounts of traffic to your site, without having to build any links or mess around with confusing on-page SEO, worry about KW density, number of words or any of the rest of that crap.
Here’s how I use Ahrefs to find my Pinterest content topics:
1. Search for a broad topic in Content Explorer
2. Add a filter for social shares - Depending on Niche, something like >10000
3. Find an easy target to rip off.
Scan the results for something which fits your niche and has a decent amount of shares. In this example for baseball bat, I chose something which could fit a baseball equipment or general sports niche.
4. Take a look at the pin image and post to get an idea of what works.
Ahrefs used to allow you to drill down to the pin by clicking on the red Pinterest share total on the right hand side, this does not seem to work at present. So, head over to Pinterest and type the name of the Pin we have found. In our example, this would be "12 Groomsmen Gifts We Love".
Tip: 99% of the time, a pin is created from a money page, so it will have the same name on Pinterest, which makes it easy to find
5. Checkout the Pin design to see what is clearly working already.
We can see that this is the same site as on Ahrefs and that they keep it simple and tell their audience straight up that they can find all of these on Etsy (via their Awin affiliate link of course).
6. Replicate.
So all you have to do is create a new page on your site and add the pin with a few KW's. The beauty of this hack is the page you are going to create is really simple and it will take hardly any time at all to put together.
You can see this from the image of the example site below, it is pretty much a picture gallery with Awin affiliate links to the products on Etsy! How quick and easy is that?
Conclusion
A lot of IM'ers don’t know where to begin with Pinterest marketing, but using this simple Ahrefs hack you can start getting traffic and sales today.
Personally, I have had tons of success with Pinterest and this hack just makes it insanely easy to get ideas, content and traffic.
Let me know what you think and stay tuned for Part 2 of the Ahrefs Hacks Guide.

Unfortunately not. I pay the $7 every few weeks for a 7 day trial and blitz it. I have tried various hacks to get it for free, but unlike Moz an Semrush it does not seem possible.

1. Do you have a hack to get moz and semrush without a cc
2. can those 28k pinterest shares be due to advertisement not natural shares? not trying to be rude, just to clear myself..

Hi,
I am confuse to this, how can finding some else pin share get us views?
1: Find some good shares of pins,
2: put on our site, and create my own board and pin there
3: It's just one share that i did, how can that get me clicks?

Answers to your questions.
1. Search BHW for Moz free and you will find posts from the last 21 days telling you exactly how to do this. For Semrush you need a CC, but it works with virtual CC's which you can get from @Garry9061's service, I verified that myself.
2. The shares are purely natural shares. Below are my latest analytics for the same account, as you can see, they are purely organic. I have not actually uploaded any new pins in 3 weeks, or even logged in to this account, as I have been busy on other projects, but you can see it is ticking over. I will schedule 100 pins sometime this week and engagement/clicks should go up nicely.

I started implementing this method yesterday and have around 4-5 pins in each board. I created 2 boards as of now.
But I have a few questions :
1) Should I pin other pins on my board ?
2) How many pins to you post in a day ?
3) Would you recommend adding affiliate links instead of adding URL of my money page ?
