Mobile Accounts For More Than 75% of Pinterest Use
Pinterest just raised an additional $225 million in funding, and released some new stats to highlight the platform’s mobile and international expansion:
- 125% international growth since the beginning of 2013
- recent launches in UK, France and Italy
- plans to launch in 10 more countries before 2014
- mobile grew 50% since January 2013
- mobile now accounts for 3/4 of all usage on Pinterest
Pinterest will also continue to work on monetization – with plans for a global program – following the first tests of ‘Promoted Pins’ that rolled out earlier this month in the U.S.
AllThingsD quotes a statement from Pinterest co-founder and CEO Ben Silbermann: “We hope to be a service that everyone uses to inspire their future, whether that’s dinner tomorrow night, a vacation next summer, or a dream house someday. This new investment enables us to pursue that goal even more aggressively.”
