3 Articles You Should Read About Pinterest
I am in 2 groups on Facebook that are always up on the latest info for Pinterest. I personally would call myself a mild addict to the platform, mainly using it to pass time and become depressed that I am not the Martha Stewart that so many others on there are. Who makes these perfect birthday cakes anyways?! I am just finishing up with creating these reused crayons (super easy)!
Anyways, Hilary in our group, who must be the most uber detective ever, came across these 3 articles on how Pinterest makes money from your pins. Not that I really mind since I don’t use it for that aspect, but I figure some of you might be wasting your time Pinning from Amazon with affiliate links and you wont be earning anything.
- How Pinterest Is Secretly Profiting from Your Links
- Pinterest Rivals Twitter In Referral Traffic
- Pinterest Is Quietly Generating Revenue By Modifying User Submitted Pins
In the mean time. Follow me and all my wishful baking/crafting/DIY crap on Pinterest.

From this point forward, please refer to me as Detective Hilary.
But are those people marking those pins as affiliate links? If so then I haven’t seen any like that, and if not that’s kind of the same thing.
No, Pinterest automatically reassigns all links, so any affiliate ones get re-designed as well.
