San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) January 29, 2013

Pinfluencer, the enterprise marketing and analytics platform for Pinterest, kicks off its second year by announcing its innovative image recognition engine to become the most accurate and comprehensive Pinterest analytics provider. Currently tracking over 5000 major brands on Pinterest, Pinfluencer has an impressive array of customers including Sephora, Etsy, Z Gallerie and Orbitz, and powers and tracks hundreds of successful contests and sweepstakes on Pinterest.

The new Pinfluencer image parsing engine uses image recognition technology so brands can now see which image on a particular page drives the most traffic from Pinterest. The technology also breaks down data based on URL patterns and SEO tags helping marketers identify both images and products from the website that are generating engagement for their brand on Pinterest and driving traffic back to their website. Pinfluencer's image recognition technology in combination with URL and SEO parsing allows marketers to perform analytics at an image, product and website level -- making Pinfluencer the most comprehensive, granular and accurate enterprise marketing and analytics platform for Pinterest in the market.

•     How well is my website and brand doing? – measured by metrics such as overall Followers, Pins/Day, Repins/Pin, Clicks/Pin

“A website is composed of product pages and product pages are comprised of individual images. These images distribute the Skus on Pinterest via pins and repins serving as the digital mannequins that help drive traffic back to a retailer’s website,” said Sharad Verma, CEO, Pinfluencer. “We see every pin on Pinterest as a distribution opportunity for our customer brands and we have spent the last year helping these brands see how to identify their top and most influential pinners and learn which pins actually drive the most sales. We are unveiling our new image technology to allow brands to understand which images on a webpage drives the most traffic relative to other images. These insights are extremely powerful.”
