To Buy or Not to Buy Your Pinterest Followers? [Search Engine Journal]

With Pinterest becoming the most engaged social media network in the world, there is no denying that brands and businesses are taking advantage of this online pinboard to leverage their social media campaign.

However, it is also a no-brainer that some companies are buying Pinterest followers and re-pins. But is buying Pinterest followers a good or bad idea?

Aside from sharing the pros and cons of buying Pinterest followers and re-pins, John Rampton of search marketing news site Search Engine Journal also posted his recommendation:

My personal recommendation would be to do everything legit and to not purchase Pinterest followers. I think it’s just a safer bet, long term. It’s much like black hat SEO. You might get away with for a while, but eventually you’re going to get caught.
