Historical Pinterest Data & Statistics

Pinterest is an amazing platform for spreading and discovering ideas for almost anything and everything.

On Pinterest, users share their ideas in the form of pictures. Each picture can be pinned to a Board, where other users can then re-pin that same picture on their own boards, similar to a mood board, but this one is social.

The Pin is not only a tool for structuring users ideas, but it's also a metric for popularity. The more pins an item have, the more popular it is, and the more visible it will be to the audience searching for similar ideas. The Pin creates a viral effect similar to the Like button found on Facebook.

Pinterest has proven to be an awesome platform for marketing by raising brand awareness and generating sales with targeted buyer intent, yet keeping the integrity of the platform and its users.

Let's have a look at some statistics that can back up my claims.

Pinterest drops its IPO filing that was planned to go live on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), under the ticker symbol “PINS". Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase were signed as lead underwriters for its NYSE offering.

Pinterest is now valued at $10.6 billion

After dropping its IPO filing two weeks ago, today Pinterest, the social media platform where people can discover and share ideas and content through grids of “pinned” images, filed an updated S-1 where it set the price range at $15-17 per share for a sale of 75 million shares. At this range, the company will raise between $1.125 billion and $1.275 billion. In terms of valuation — if you calculate Class A, Class B, plus options for additional Class B for total shares outstanding totalling 664.84 million shares — this values Pinterest at $10.64 billion in the midrange ($16/share), with the full range being $10 billion (at $15/share) and $11.3 billion (at $17/share).

Pinterest experiences solid growth during 2018 and moves forward with its IPO.

250 million people use Pinterest each month

We’ve reached a new milestone that I couldn’t be prouder of: more than 250 million people each month are now using Pinterest to discover and do what they love. If Pinterest were a country, we’d be the fifth largest in the world!

To me, this is further validation that we’re building a service that people really need. Pinterest is a place where people come to focus on themselves — to find inspiration for everything from a new hobby to a new look.

1.5 million businesses use Pinterest

Since coming to Pinterest, my goal has been to help build an ads platform that consumers would enjoy: a place where businesses can reach people with advertising that feels as helpful and relevant as organic content.

And thanks to the help from businesses like yours, that's exactly what we're doing. People on Pinterest rate ads on Pinterest 1.4 times more relevant and useful than those on other platforms.

So big thanks to all 250 million Pinners for giving Pinterest a try. And hats off to the 1.5 million businesses like yours for helping us build a platform that inspires so many people around the world each month. I truly believe we’re just getting started.
