Asked by Wiki User

Try going to pinterest.com/logout from the application. If that does not work, you can always delete the app and redownload it. Deleting the app will erase its data on your Nook, which means it will also erase your username and password data so you will be logged out.

How do you get pinterest followers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Try spreading the word about your account on any social networks that you use.

Following others that share the same interests as you may help in gaining followers too.

Be aware that users can choose to follow any number of your boards. If one doesn't follow all of your boards then they won't appear as a follower as a whole, only of that particular board.

Try adding comments to your pins too that might pick them up in key word searches on Pinterest.

Pinning videos to Pinterest works much in the same way as pinning photos and images. Simply find a video that you like online, click the Pin It button that you added to your browser, select the video, click Pin, choose the board you would like to pin it to, add any appropriate content or a caption and click Pin It.

How do you delete your own board from Pinterest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You can't delete other people's boards, but you can unfollow them. To unfollow someone:

  1. Log into your Pinterest account.
  2. Go to your main page by clicking on your user name in the upper right hand corner, and click on "Boards."
  3. Click on "Followers" on the bar above your boards.
  4. Find the individual's account you want to unfollow, and click on "Unfollow."
  5. If you are only following a few of their boards (and not their entire account), you won't have the "Unfollow" option below their name. So you'll need to click "Follow", then "Unfollow."

Asked by Wiki User

A URL is the Universal Resource Locator, a string of characters which is used to identify or name a resource. In other words, it's the string of characters that specifies where you are on the web.

On Pinterest, each pin has its own URL, and they all have a pin number. The Pinterest URLs usually look like this:

Do you think Pinterest is better than other leading social media sites?

User Avatar

Asked by AdingLorraine

Pinterest might not be the leading social media networking site when it comes to user and visitor population, but this site still has its own advantage. Based on an infographic released by Fast Company, Pinterest users are found to be spending more money compared to Facebook and Twitter users. According to the infographic as well, Pinterest users spend $179.36 while Facebook users spend $80.22 and Twitter users spend $68.78, a noticeable and big difference indeed. This only means that a greater percentage of Pinterest users are actually willing to buy something than those users on other sites. Therefore, in the most common sense, and based on the infographic, Pinterest users are more likely to become real paying customers.
