Pinterest Unveils Web Analytics Tool for Businesses

Pinterest, introduced a web-based analytics tool for businesses allowing site owners to track users' engagement with their sites.

Pinterest is now measurable to any verified business account. Web Analytics gives site owners insights into how people are interacting with pins that originate from their websites. The tool allows site owners to track the number of pinners, how many people have seen these pins, the ones who have have pinned content from their sites, how many people have visited their sites from Pinterest, and how many Pinterest impressions their content has generated. It will also show a selection of the most recent pins captured from their site and the content that's been re-pinned and clicked on the most within Pinterest.

Reach, referral traffic, both in cilcks and unique visitors can also be tracked by websites.
