My guest post on Kissmetrics about how I accumulated over 1.7 million Pinterest views in 2015 for one of my Pinterest accounts.
Did you know that Pinterest is the #2 referrer of social media traffic, behind only Facebook? In this case study, I talk about how I was able to generate over 1.7 million views to my pins on my Pinterest account in 2015.
A few of the tips covered:
1. Consistency is critical - Consistency is how I was able to outperform large established brands and outrank them.
2. Focus on creating a resource - Don't just pin your own stuff, but focus on creating an amazing resource for your followers.
3. Pay attention to seasonality and trends - Changing trends can provide opportunities for pinning items that resonate with your followers. This resulted in a 3x increase a couple years ago on Halloween, for example.
Read the article below on the Kissmetrics blog.

Some unfortunate news for online marketers - Apple has shut down Twitter analytics service Topsy. I was just using it yesterday.
The paid version of Buzzsumo offers similar functionality. It was nice to have a free alternative though while it lasted.

Lost your twitter share count?
Install BuzzSumo Chrome extension to still see Twitter share count http://bit.ly/1SP2zyh
Twitter turned off their share count API today so most share count buttons will no longer work. However, you can install BuzzSumo's new free Chrome extension to still view counts and Pro users can also see who the sharers are.
