Ask HN: Please explain Pinterest

3 pointsby lauradhamiltonover 11 years ago

I created a Pinterest page for my startup, and I've pinned 18 articles so far.<p>But I can't figure out how to get followers or re-pins or traffic.<p>Has anyone used Pinterest successfully to drive traffic? Read any useful materials on the topic?<p>I do not use Pinterest personally, which contributes to my confusion on this matter.

you should start following people that have similar interests(around your company). then repin their stuff if it's interesting.
