WA links on Pinterest

Evening all!

I'm doing affiliate bootcamp and I've just finished a lesson on Pinterest.

One of the tasks of the lesson is to add a link from a WA tutorial to one of your boards.

Now mine keeps coming up as blocked as spam even if I use a shortener.

I have managed to do it though by using pretty links !

Just incase anyone else is having this problem.

Pinterest like Google+ will block WA links because they see it as spam. This has been the case for more than a year now.

Using Pretty Links will only work at first but then Pinterest will detect that it is still a WA affiliate link and will block you.

Another thing to remember is that if you are successful at posting a link on Pinterest, anyone who clicks it will be presented with a warning message that they have clicked on a link that could be spam.

As for Google+, there is no WA affiliate link that will work, either shortened or with the use of Pretty Links.

yes I've found that with Google plus although pretty links works for me although I tend to post straight from my websites rather than use links because of this.

I will do the same for pinterest

I'm with Firefox and it won't work

Thanks for the tip.

When I try to post even a blog it says Pinterest is having problems on their end..anyone encountered this?I tried different browsers still same result.

Yes a few times aswell but I thought it was the actual post causing the problems.

At least they are aware of it.
