4. What are Impressions on Pinterest?  

?  

Impressions on Pinterest are a metric that measures the number of times a user's Pins are displayed on the screen. Impressions are counted when a user is scrolling through the Pinterest feed, even if they don't interact with the Pin. Therefore, if a Pin appears on the screen 1,000 times, it will have 1,000 impressions. It's important to understand that just because there are 1,000 impressions, it doesn't mean that 1,000 unique users have seen the Pin. For example, if one user scrolled over the Pin multiple times or engaged with it multiple times, it would count as multiple impressions.
