In our recent pinterest marketing priorities poll you told us, by a vast majority, that driving traffic to your site from Pinterest was your top priority.
But you might be wondering…
Hey Jason – are you really driving traffic to your sites from Pinterest? Or just acting like you know what you’re talking about? “
Well, we’re definitely still figuring things out, but according to our Google Analytics, our January traffic to www.libertyjanepatterns.com from Pinterest is pretty exciting. We are seeing massive jumps in two important metrics:
- Referral links: When someone goes to our website and uses the pin it button, it places the image from our site onto their pinboard with a link back to our site. This type of referral link is a great metric to track.
- Visits: The second type of metric is more important – it’s visits from people who clicked on the referral links that have been set up.
