The social bookmarking site Pinterest, one of the fastest-growing social networks of the last two years, released a new analytics tool Tuesday so that users — especially businesses and marketing professionals — can do a better job of tracking traffic and sharing aspects of the site. Pinterest Web Analytics tools are available to users with a verified website, and have access to Pinterest’s new look. “Yay, they finally announced analytics,” said Susan Etlinger, analyst with the Altimeter Group.
