‘Pinterest to hit 50 million active users in US next year, new data says’ – ‘Mashable’

Seth Fiegerman says, “Pinterest may need to pin some more users.

The visual bookmarking service is projected to have just more than 47 million monthly active users in the U.S. this year, and top 50 million next year, according to a new estimate from researcher eMarketer.

If accurate, that puts Pinterest far behind Facebook, which reported having 128 million dailyactive users in the U.S. back in 2013. It’s also well behind Twitter, which claimed 63 million monthly active users in the fourth quarter of 2014.

It’s worth noting, however, that a separate estimate from comScore puts Pinterest’s unique visitor number at 75.8 million as of January”.
