    Because that works so well for Pinterest right? I mean, we all have Pinterest accounts so we can access all that content on Pinterest don’t we?

    Oh… we don’t? People add -site:pinterest.com to their google searches to avoid the site entirely? Well then… dang.

      Personally, I don’t get many search results from Pinterest

        Or not anymore, anyway. Google’s algorithm seems to have come to the conclusion that pinterest isn’t worth linking as much anymore.

      Twitter is going even harder than Pinterest. They’re not even showing a preview of the content, they’re just immediately redirecting users to a login page before seeing anything at all.
