Hello,

I need help with the new Pinterest statistics. I`m confused with monthly viewers.

@tanjaopacic   Hi there, can you be more specific about what you're confused about with the monthly viewers? As I understand it... monthly viewers is simply how many times your pins are shown all around Pinterest & of course there's a lot of reasons why they're shown. Also that number can fluctuate wildly from time to time. You also might want to read this post from the managers: https://community.pinterest.biz/t5/community-basics/january-metric-update-has-arrived/m-p/11741#M731

@PinterestGabby  did I get that right?

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I`ve followed you. I do like your account.

I`m confused because when Pinterest update statistics my computer showed 8 million viewers, but mobile showed 5,1 million. Main statistic for my account today 7,3 million.

This is my account https://www.pinterest.com/tanjaopacic/_created/

I`m just not sure what`s a real statistic.

@tanjaopacic  Thanks for the compliment Tanja & for following me, I followed you back 😊

What you're asking is above my pay grade (lol) & I think only a manager can answer your question... so I'm tagging a couple of them to help you @PinterestJanice @PinterestGabby

One thing that's different is that they seem to have changed the stats from counting VIEWERS to VIEWS. So if a viewer had 4 of your pins on screen, that would show up as 4 instead of 1, I think? And therefore it would all add up to more than when it was "viewers."

And I'm not sure but I think a lot of the time, mobile vs desktop apps are often not updated all the same way at the same time, so maybe -- I'm just guessing here -- the mobile still shows viewers like the "old" way. I haven't looked at mobile yet. But that's what it could be, maybe.

But I'm not an expert and not part of the crew, just making some observations.
