Why have a social media and search platform if you're going to shadowban your top creator and business accounts, and then do nothing about it?There have been multiple instances this summer where Pinterest has rolled out poorly functioning updates to its algorithm and spam filters, which has resulted in many large, established business and creator accounts getting caught in their spam filters for no reason.As a result, their pins are no longer showing up in search results, and the traffic for these accounts has dropped drastically. For example, a business account that has been established on Pinterest for years went from having over 1M monthly impressions to 12,000 monthly impressions with no explanation. There are thousands of reports of this happening to long-time established accounts just in 2024 alone.The worst part, is that Pinterest refuses to acknowledge that there is a problem, and is not doing anything to fix it. Even after multiple help center complaints have been filed, they do not acknowledge that there is an issue.How is it that all other social media platforms continue to be improving, and Pinterest continues to get worse with each update?BOTTOM LINE:Business owners and creators: Invest your time and money in other platforms that are much more reliable. With Pinterest you will see all of your time, money and effort be destroyed in the blink of an eye and with no explanation.
