TailWind App works to analyze your activity on Pinterest.

It's gonna show you the best times to pin, who your top Pinners are, and so much more.

So let's go over to the dashboard and check it out. Now before we head over to the Tailwind Appdashboard I wanna give you guys a little insight.

Over in Google Analytics you can see why I am so interested inPinterest now. Check this out in your Google Analytics account. Goover to Acquisition and under Social look at Network Referrals. Andthis is gonna tell you all those social networks and how valuable thattraffic is on your blog.

For example, let’s look at Facebook. I get a lot of pageviews andpeople stay for about a minute. If you come down here to Pinterest.

Notice Pinterest is right behind YouTube. Which is fabulousbecause I know that YouTube is one of my best traffic sources. So

when I look at Pinterest I see that the people who are coming from Pinterest are visiting multiple pages andthey're staying a really long time.

They're staying even longer than the people from YouTube. And that's primarily because the people fromYouTube have probably already watched some my videos while they were on YouTube. But these people are justwatching videos and going through my content on a very detailed level. So you check out your Pinterest trafficsources in those social reports Google Analytics.

But Google Analytics doesn't tell you all the fantastic things that the TailWind App is gonna show you.

So now let's go over to TailWind App and check it out. And here we are over on the Tailwind dashboard. Now Iwanna - before we go any further - I wanna give a shoutout to Cynthia Sanchez from Oh So Pinteresting.
