I had been active for over a decade helping build up Pinterest, as many others had. However, since end of September it seems things went downhill for many loyal bookmarkers or "pinners" . Even our legit business account was "suspended". We also have another business, so today I decided to ask them as to why they "suspended" without any warning Bayside Digital via that other account. And guess what was their response: they suspended that as well, which had only 75 followers and all about fashion and other handcrafts I was promoting via that account! Guess what, they don't care. I personally find solutions if something doesn't work. Yes, I immediately started looking for Pinterest alternatives and so glad to let you know, there are many out there!
End of September I had already started my own personal bookmarks and reference by topics that interest me and I was very happy about that! So at this point losing a Pinterest account is a blessing, as I kept for FREE promoting other websites I liked. I will reserve my time and efforts to other businesses that need my attention, rather than building up for FREE a tool that obviously doesn't care for the loyal "pinners". That's a shame indeed. Today I found on Twitter, many accounts posting about their "suspended" in other word Pinterest closing accounts without warning. At least they should have thanked us for helping them grow!Pinterest lost my trust and I will never go back to it. They want me to sign up as business, so their bottomline is making money, however they alienated royally all those who helped them!
I will update this page with new alternative links I find. You are welcome to post your comments if you have used these tools:
