My Pinterest Views Are Tanking

For the past couple of days, I've noticed that my Pinterest views have taken a steady nose dive. I haven't changed anything I've been doing (successfully) for the past couple of years to consistently see increased views.

But a friend and Pinterest guru sent out an email today suggesting that Pinterest IS doing something to cause it. They're doing an update.

Have you noticed some glitchy things happening when you open up your Pinterest account or try to pin something? Have you noticed your Pinterest views tanking?

Don't panic! Pinterest is up to something, and we just have to ride it out to see how we can get our views back up there.

One caveat: In this email, my friend the Pinterest guru noted that her OWN Pinterest views have been going through the roof lately, and she hasn't switched up her Pinteresting strategy that much. She has 10x the number of followers I do, so her Pinterest reach is a lot bigger.

She also mentioned that one of her friends (who also has a massive Pinterest account) is making some drastic changes by leaving and deleting group boards and was thinking that was a good idea because her views are skyrocketing too. But, chances are, it was just due to the Pinterest update and not so much the group board deletion.

So don't go deleting any Pinterest group boards yet.

Just don't do it! Group boards are good. Group boards can help you add pins to your account without lifting a finger because other people are doing some of the work for you.

I'll admit: I was tempted to start deleting and leaving group boards when I heard about that one lady's traffic explosion (and especially when my own traffic started tanking), but I think I'll wait it out and see if I can figure out what Pinterest has up its sleeve. :-)
