Pinterest Launches Localized French Edition

Pinterest introduced a localized version of its website for France on Tuesday, the first non-English edition of its site.

While the French version does offer language support in search and other text-heavy areas of the site, the French edition's main aim is to provide a more localized community experience for users in the country, an e-mailed statement from Pinterest suggests. The platform will feature content from French domains and pins with French-language descriptions more prominently in search and on category pages, as well as pins from local users.
