Pinterest Expands Efforts to Connect With Publishers

The visual-driven social media site is taking steps to push publisher's content.

It’s already been a busy week for Pinterest, but the changes for the site are just beginning. On Monday, the San Francisco-based social media network welcomed Robert Macdonald, formerly of Google, to head up a new media relations team. Yesterday, it previewed a new Privacy Policy that offers additional insight into the Promoted Pins program that will roll out Oct. 9th.

Both of these efforts are a part of Pinterest’s quest to compete with social media networks like Facebook and Twitter, who have well-established partnerships with publishers and brands that drive revenue.
