Founded in 2010, Pinterest has become a platform for users to find inspiration and create ‘scrapbook’ like boards with online content that interests them.
Pinterest is more like a search engine rather than a social media platform – Where users search and browse for desired topics.
Sharing and promoting products isn’t perceived as intrusive on Pinterest, instead it’s encouraged, as it was specifically designed to promote products and gifts.

In addition to Pinterest, the platform also authenticates media quality on YouTube, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and Twitter.
