Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It’s been quite a wild ride since our launch a couple months ago, with many a sleepless night spent fixing bugs, building features, and gathering some awesome feedback. In our short time, PinReach has grown from the small idea of a few to a platform powering thousands, and we couldn’t be more thankful that you chose to give us a try.

Recently, we began working on some major enhancements to PinReach aimed at making things faster, more stable, and feature rich. Although we will continue to provide a level of functionality free to everyone, we will soon be launching our premium service, PinReach PRO, with a suite of valuable tools for marketers. Check out some of the highlights from our PRO features coming soon and if you are interested in participating in the BETA for PinReach PRO, feel free to get in touch through our contact form here and we'll be in touch as we begin rolling it out.

Good news! We have fixed the issue surrounding missing stats and related drops in PinReach score. It will take some time to reprocess everything, however feel free to log in and hit the refresh button to manually update your stats. This may also take some time to finish, so sit back, grab a tasty beverage and wait for it to complete. Feel free to contact us with any questions.

Thanks for your patience while we addressed this!

Still working on a fix for missing fields, drop in score

Just another quick follow up that we are still addressing the issue related to missing stats and the related drop in score. We should have everything resolved soon and will reprocess all data to ensure it is current. 

Thanks so much for your patience, we'll be back online 100% very soon!

We just wanted to post a quick update regarding the drops in score and missing counts for repins, comments, etc... It appears that Pinterest has made some changes that have impacted PinReach's ability to pull these stats and we are working on a resolution now. Once we have a fix in place, we will remove any bad data that was collected during this time and everything will display as expected, but for the time being those stats will not be shown. 

We will post a followup once everything is processing as usual.

10,000 Members! New features are nice too

Over the last week we’ve been busy stabilizing our platform, fixing bugs, listening to feedback, and even rolled out some new features, all as we reached our biggest milestone yet – 10,000 users! We couldn’t be more excited that Pinterest influence and analytics are in demand, and we’re dedicated to remaining the best one-stop-shop around. 

Of our latest features I wanted to mention two, which will help set the stage for richer analytics at both the pin and board level. The first is the individual pin page, for example http://www.pinreach.com/pin/844493649646978. The pins page will soon house a variety of charts and graphs to better understand the activity lifecycle of a given pin. Measuring and understanding a pin’s social engagement is an important factor to the success of your marketing efforts on Pinterest, and we are aiming to provide excellent data to do just that. 

Similarly, we rolled out the individual boards page, for example http://www.pinreach.com/board/chrisem/words-to-live-by,  which will soon provide trending analytics and goodies to help you measure the level of engagement on your boards as a whole. Like pins, board engagement is a key factor when considering the success of your efforts on Pinterest. Increasing your board quality will get more board followers, which will inherently increase your overall social interactions and reach across Pinterest. 

Over the next couple weeks we will continue to refine our feature set, so please keep on sending your awesome comments and questions. Your ideas help us build the tools you really need, not what we think you want.  Much more to come!

New Pin Page

We heard you loud and clear, 24 hours is too long to sit around waiting for your data to update.  We're happy to inform you that you now have the ability to manually refresh your stats at any time. Simply log into your account and hit the refresh button under your score card, grab a cup of coffee and hang tight for a few while your latest stats are grabbed.

In addition to the ability to refresh, we have also removed the use of the PinReach username as it has caused some confusion when registering. You now only need to enter your Pinterest username, your email address, and a password to create an account. If you previously created a manual account with a PinReach username, you will now log in using your email address instead.

More goodies coming soon!

As you are probably aware by now, Pinterest recently updated their user profile page with a new layout. This update has temporarily impacted our process used to collect information on PinReach and we are working to adjust accordingly. We should have everything in place later this evening and all scores and data will begin refreshing.

In the meantime, http://www.PinReach.com will still be available, so feel free to stop by and browse around and we'll update once things are running again. 

[pinreach]

PinReach has a new face! With it comes some new trending data, analytics, and a bunch of backend updates. With this update we really wanted to better organize our content in order to support the variety of data we ultimately plan to show throughout the site. We wanted to integrate a more consistent usage of design elements, while focusing on improving the flow throughout. 

As always, feel free to shoot us any ideas or feedback you may have. We are super excited to have the new platform and design up and running and can't wait to roll out our next batch of features!

Say goodbye to PinClout, hello PinReach

The last couple weeks have been a wild ride for us at PinClout. We launched the site unsure of what to expect, and already the response has been overwhelming. In the two weeks since our initial tweet about PinClout we've grown our registered user-base to almost 6k, our traffic is consistently climbing, and the biggest social influence measuring site around (Klout) demanded our name be buried 6 feet under. Well, it feels that way to us anyway. Although getting a cease and desist three days after launching is in some ways a validation of your idea and maybe even a bit exciting, when you have little money or time to put up a fight it quickly turns to frustration and sadface.

We've been working like rabid monkeys lately trying to 'pin' down a good replacement for PinClout and figured we'd take the opportunity to beef up our infrastructure during the switch. Today marks the official end of the PinClout name and domain, hence forth we shall be known as PinReach, your source for awesomely amazing Pinterset analytics and influence measuring.

Although PinClout has passed, PinReach is pushing forward even stronger, determined to provide the best insight into Pinterest activity around. If you have any questions surrounding the switch, or you just want to cry with us, feel free to give us a shout. We look forward to seeing you around the website formerly known as PinClout.
