Pinterest - whose using it and what do you think? 2nd April 2012 8:02 PM
If you have an amazing product and not enough money to spend on marketing, this could be really useful. According to reports, it drives more referral traffic than twitter, youtube, linkedin etc. Also people can share any pin they like on facebook, twitter etc where their friends will see and share it and so on. However 97% of facebook likes on Pinterest are made by women. So if you are selling a product appealing to men only or mostly, you lose a huge market. Also, It is not very far that automated scripts that pin loads of rubbish and spam the Pinterest to death.
