Learn about his invention and how he created a company around it. He\u2019s been using Pinterest even before he started using it for marketing his business. He also has a blog that includes content other than organization and gift wrapping and has also started the video series <i>Bring the Neat <\/i>done<i> <\/i>on Google+ Hangout<i> <\/i>with a few guests discussing all about organization during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=k8HckSLxhS8\">Holiday<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2nxBukl4ITw\">Spring<\/a> season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-identify-and-handle-spammers-on-pinterest-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp\"><b><i>How to identify and handle spammers on Pinterest&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, spammers on Pinterest seem to be increasing in numbers.

For example, do the numbers make sense? Are the numbers realistic enough with regards to the number of followers they have relative to the number of boards they have? If it looks suspicious, maybe it\u2019s a fake. As they say, if it\u2019s too good to be true, then it probably is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-can-we-do-about-these-spammy-pinterest-accounts\"><b><i>What can we do about these spammy Pinterest accounts?<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking the time to refine your following can help you identify spammers.
