Launched in March 2010, Pinterest was the fastest site in history to reach 10 million unique monthly visitors and high user engagement metrics a significant feat especially when considering that during much of its initial launch and growth, the site was invitation-only. Pinterest experienced the highest amount of MAUs at the end of March 2021, when the image based social media platform had 478 million MAUs worldwide.
