Pinterest

Pinterest is the long-tail discovery platform — a well-optimised Pin can drive traffic for 6-12 months after publish. Algorithm rewards consistent, topical pinning and high-quality source-site metadata.

• Pins per day
  200 pins
• Pin description
  500 characters
• Board count per account
  2,000 boards

Pinterest has no documented new-account throttle, but accounts with zero pins for the first 30 days after signup often get de-prioritized in Related Pins. Flayr recommends pinning at least 3 per day for the first month.

• Pin image size
  32MB per image, 1000×1500 recommended (2:3)
• Video length
  4s – 15 minutes
• Idea Pin slides
  20 slides

Public API: 1,000 calls per hour. Flayr batches pins via Zernio so rate limits are effectively invisible to users.

• Pins without a destination URL get heavily de-prioritized — Flayr auto-attaches one when missing.
• Duplicate pins to different boards are OK. Duplicate images to the same board trigger spam flags.

Flayr auto-attaches a destination URL to every pin (falling back to the authoring brand profile), flags duplicate-image-same-board before publish, and suggests optimal board rotation for long-tail reach.
