26 Insider Secrets to Driving
Massive Traffic with Pinterest
6 short months ago no one knew who or
what Pinterest was. Fast-forward to May, 2012
and it’s the 3rd largest referral traffic source,
generating more referral traffic than LinkedIn,
YouTube, Google+ and yes… even Twitter.
But for marketers, Pinterest’s real magic
comes with the knowledge that this referral
traffic goldmine converts at a higher rate than
any other social media platform.
Prior to the Pinvasion, Facebook held
pole position for referral traffic AND
conversions… and their numbers were
impressive.
But Pinterest has taken it to a whole
new level and now drives MORE SALES
than Facebook.
As if that weren’t enough, Pinterest users spend more than
twice as much as Facebook users! So what’s it all mean?
It means it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get pinvolved! In the scheme of
things, Pinterest is really still a baby - okay, I wanted to say pinfant but
restrained myself. :)
And this is your opportunity to start mastering Pinterest NOW so that as it
continues to grow and expand, so do your traffic and sales.
