5k followers but very low pin impressions (less than 10) - normal??

Hi. New here, sorry.

Started adding pins to biz account after long absence but getting very few impressions.  Literally less than 10 on fresh, unpinned content.

Also my 30 day analytics show impressions of my pins (5800) vs other's pins (394,000)

Is this normal? Just seems crazy that I'd get so few looks.  Monthly is showing me 700,000+ views.

Thanks for any help.  Tried googling, youtube, and couldn't figure this out.

Hi @timberbuiltinc! One thing to know is that standard pins are not getting as much distribution right now. Less than 10 impressions on standard pins (even when it's new content) is not out of the ordinary. 

You may want to work on creating and incorporating Idea Pins into your content and Pinterest plan. They are getting the best reach and driving lots of engagement (saves, clicks) and growth on the platform. You can start here to learn more about them: https://business.pinterest.com/en-ca/creative-best-practices 

I'd also recommend reading this article from Pinterest. I read and re-read whenever I'm thinking about growth on the platform - both follower growth and discoverability. It's so helpful: https://business.pinterest.com/en-us/blog/how-to-build-audience-pinterest/

I hope these help kickstart your research and your efforts to try some new things on Pinterest!
