    How has Pinterest added to your traffic to your hubs?

    How has Pinterest added to your traffic to your hubs and accumulated through Adsense or Amazon/ebay capsule?

    I have noticed a nice improvement in the number of total views I get across all of my hubs from pinning on pinterest.  I have still not gone through all my old hubs and pinned them all but I am slowly doing so and I believe it has brought more traffic.  Several of my hubs have received several repins from other users one over 30 repins which is surely helping to add visibility to my hubs and at the end of the day result in more ad revenue. Pinterest has helped my daily view increase on several hubs as they were at a low number for many months and after I pinned them and they received some repins I am getting anywhere from 15 - 30 views a day on those hubs.  It has not fixed some poor performing hubs, but I don't have great pictures for those and that is the biggest piece of success of pinterest you have to have great looking pics or it will result in no real benefit. I can't give you exact specific's but I am pleased with the results and will continue to do so in the future.  I wouldn't mind if you went and pinned a few of my hubs as well smile

    I joined pinterest for the sole purpose of getting more traffic to my hubs. I think, however, that this has worked against me. Since I didn't have many followers, the pins aren't generating much traffic. I still can't see it on my traffic sources page yet. But I do think it will be a good investment in the long run, so long as I keep up with it and use the site outside of Hub related activity.

    The only hub I have gotten much traffic to from pinterest is my Easter Decoration Hub. I think maybe this type of hub is well suited to the site. There's a lot of crafty stuff, and decorating stuff there, it is a timely subject, and I had an attractive photo that got repinned a lot.

    I get some traffic from Pinterest, but not much.  Like M.T.Dremer, I also don't have many followers.  Although I enjoy pinning, I don't have that much time to spend on Pinterest.  I got a couple of Amazon sales, but again, not much.  I'm still learning which works, and which doesn't work.

    I've gotten minimal traffic from Pinterest thus far. I think because most of my "followers" there are people I already know from Facebook, some forums I belong to, etc., and they're already quite familiar with my Hub activity.

    I still post links there cuz I figure what the hell, it doesn't cost anything, but I don't think it's going to become a major source of traffic for me. Oh well. It was worth a shot.

    I have had some views but not many and none accumulated as far as my Adsense. Maybe it'll begin one day until then I continue to submot things I find of interest for others and a passion for me.

    I don't know about my hubs, but it seemed that Pinterest sent a lot of traffic to my blogs. So, since I pinned my hubs also, I'm hoping it's doing the same.
