Case in point: WP Pinner, an all-in-one Pinterest tool for users of the blogging platform WordPress.
WP Pinner, launched Wednesday, is a plug-in built for WordPress users to share material on Pinterest. Installing WP Pinner will mount a dashboard to the blog's admin area.
The dashboard displays the board name, date posts, clicks, likes and number of repins. From here, WordPress publishers can also schedule pins and automatically follow users interacting with their pinboards.
Creators of WP Pinner, Wilco de Kreij and Mark Ramos, based in The Netherlands, were inspired by the success of Pinterest analytics tool Pinerly.
"I noticed there weren't any really good tools around to manage my accounts," said de Kreij. "Since I'm doing pretty much everything with WordPress these days, an integrated tool seemed like the best fit."
With the team's first release of the beta, the only features available will be auto-pinning and tracking statistics.

The team hopes to go live in a few weeks with more features, including detailed statistics, pinning and tracking non-WordPress posts and multiple account support. For now, the plug-in will only work on self-hosted WordPress websites on WordPress.org.
WordPress.com only allows plugins from the official WordPress plugin directory. Check out this video that explains what you can do with the Pinterest plug-in for WordPress:
