In the section in Flowbox’s Social Analytics you’ll find metrics and insights about your Pinterest account. Everything from fan growth and how many you reach, to how much traffic you drive to the website via your profile bio and the demographics of your follower base.

You will also find more insights into how followers engage with your content and discover what posts (pins) are driving the most engagement. By analyzing these numbers you can make better data-driven decisions to optimize your Pinterest strategy. Below is the current data we provide with its explanation.

Engagement

Pin Engagement

This is how many times the pin is interacted with including: Saves, Closeups, and Link Clicks.

Average Engagement Rate

The rate at which the interactions occurred.

Pin Impressions

This is how many times the pin is seen, including in-feed views, follower views, etc.

Impressions reflect how many times your Pins show up in front of Pinterest users — whether that’s in their Home Feed, search results, or through another user’s boards. When you’re looking at your impressions stats across a few of your Pins, it’s a good idea to look for patterns, and try to identify trends.

Pin Closeups

This is how many times the pin has been clicked for a closeup view.

Closeups measure how many times a user on Pinterest has clicked or tapped your Pin to take a zoomed-in look at it. Often, people tap a Pin and take a closer look if they’re intrigued by the content you’ve shared. This is a good benchmark of how interesting audiences are finding your Pin. So if you see one of your Pins is getting an unusually high number of closeups, it might be a good idea to dig into why. Is it because there’s valuable detail or information in the image?
