Hi, I came across a pintereset account:

https://cz.pinterest.com/Minimal_Tech/wordpress-minimal-theme/
I'm interested in 2 things.

1. Does Pinterest have a problem with affiliate links?
2. How do you think they form pins? I think it uses some kind of automation, but I'm not sure. Or do you think it's done with every pin in Canva?

Thanks.
 
Pinterest is pretty much a losing battle for anyone trying to make a quick buck as far as I'm concerned. I've been using Pinterest for the past 8 years and now it's harder than ever to fool the Pinterest Algorithm to be able to do anything worthwhile. Affiliate linked PINS will not get shown to users and the account will get shadow band and eventually shut down from all of the stolen PINS.
 
I have had amazing lucky with Pinterest in the past. But like savageman said it's harder now. I have a legit page I manually post on from time to time but the traffic is lower.
 
Oh, pinterest .... gave me more gray hair than $

On topic :

Dont use affiliate links , you will get shadoban.
Try and use domain.com/link1 and redirect it to your affiliate link [ dont forget to ban pinterest bot ]

Sir..sorry if it's off topic. From your 8 years experience, is there any way to fix the shadow ban? Or we just have to move on and create a new account?
Thanks
 
You could redirect to website then to your offer, at Least that's what I'm understanding sifting through all the pintrest posts. Not sure if it's even worth it unless your targeting women between 30 -50.
