friend or foe?&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4>The Situation<\/h4>\n<p>A few days ago, I received an email from Pinterest saying my account (business) had been suspended.\u00a0 Further, it said that I should check their Community Guidelines for information on SPAM, and if I believed there was an error, I could lick a clink to let them know.\u00a0 That&#8217;s it.\u00a0 About 5 lines in total.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, I clicked the link and told them that the pins I was creating were to promote 3 products (children&#8217;s books), they weren&#8217;t offensive in any way, and there weren&#8217;t too many of them.\u00a0 Admittedly, my wording was a little terse because they have a length restriction on my rebuttal.\u00a0 Go figure!\u00a0 Their response was a message indicating that they decided not to re-activate my account, and to contact them through their Help Center if I had further questions.<\/p>\n<p>I got back to them with more details within a couple of hours.\u00a0 I&#8217;m still waiting for a response.\u00a0 A point of note, there were no issue report(s) associated with this suspension, so no one logged an issue that I know of.<\/p>\n<h4>My Issue(s)<\/h4>\n<p>First, Pinterest has some 518 million users.\u00a0 Middle of the road compared to the others mentioned above.\u00a0\u00a0Now, I understand that these folks need to provide interesting and safe environments for their users.\u00a0 And, of course, they need to make money.\u00a0 I get that.\u00a0 But do they have to take the I&#8217;m big, I&#8217;m GOD, play by my rules or else attitude?\u00a0 I think not.<\/p>\n<p>Second, If you have an issue with SPAM, be specific.\u00a0 \u00a0SPAM issues center around 3 things:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>content (for example, offensive, sexual, discriminatory, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>similarity (in other words, how close in word are the items to each other)<\/li>\n<li>frequency (how many occur in a unit of time)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, I have an Honors degree in Computer Science and 40+ years in the industry, so I know what SPAM is.\u00a0 But for the sake of argument, let&#8217;s look at the details.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have a content issue.\u00a0 My pins are about unique Children&#8217;s Books (Blue Jays, Squirrels, and Timber Wolfs).\u00a0 They don&#8217;t use offensive, sexual, or discriminatory language.\u00a0 My pins aren&#8217;t the same.\u00a0 I use AI to ensure that.\u00a0 But they are similar.\u00a0 The question becomes, how similar can they be?\u00a0 And frequency-wise, I send 3 pins a day (8 hours apart) for each of the 3 products.\u00a0 Each product pin is staggered 1 hour apart from the other product pins.\u00a0 This is 9 pins a day in total.\u00a0 Is that too many?<\/p>\n<p>And lastly, what&#8217;s taking so long?\u00a0 For other support cases, and the response to their initial email, they got back to me in less than an hour.<\/p>\n<h4>Conclusion<\/h4>\n<p>So, where do we go from here?\u00a0 Well, I&#8217;d like to see them do 3 things.<\/p>\n<p>First,\u00a0 I&#8217;d like to see them give up this GOD-mode attitude and get more personable.\u00a0 For example, instead of disabling accounts, send a message indicating what the issue is and work with me to resolve it.\u00a0 \u00a0Second, respond with the metrics mentioned above.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll adjust my pins, and it will be done.\u00a0 And third, recognize that there is potential revenue for them here.\u00a0 For example, I&#8217;m currently using the free automatic pin creation capability of a business account.\u00a0 But it has a restriction of 100 scheduled pins which I&#8217;ll exceed shortly.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll have to look at a something like partnership as an alternative, which isn&#8217;t bloody likely given their current attitude.<\/p>\n<p>Without these, I&#8217;ll continue to ask myself, &#8220;Pinterest &#8211; friend or foe?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re like me, you have a love\/hate relationship with  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5265,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[262],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-miscellaneous"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pinterest - friend or foe? - www.DWGloag.ca<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The purpose of this post is to describe an issue I&#039;m having with Pinterest, and why I&#039;m asking, &quot;Pinterest, friend or foe?&quot;\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dwgloag.ca\/wordpress\/2024\/06\/01\/pinterest-friend-of-foe\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Pinterest - friend or foe? - www.DWGloag.ca\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The purpose of this post is to describe an issue I&#039;m having with Pinterest, and why I&#039;m asking, &quot;Pinterest, friend or foe?&quot;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.dwgloag.ca\/wordpress\/2024\/06\/01\/pinterest-friend-of-foe\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"www.DWGloag.ca\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-06-01T10:04:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-06-09T23:51:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.dwgloag.ca\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pinterest_450x300_DxO.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"450\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"300\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"dgloag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"dgloag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"4 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.dwgloag.ca\\\/wordpress\\\/2024\\\/06\\\/01\\\/pinterest-friend-of-foe\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.dwgloag.ca\\\/wordpress\\\/2024\\\/06\\\/01\\\/pinterest-friend-of-foe\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"dgloag\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.dwgloag.ca\\\/wordpress\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/5e72326693ac9993e906d82331ccf19e\"},\"headline\":\"Pinterest &#8211;
