Juxtapost
Initially, Juxtapost was considered much better than Pinterest in many ways. In short, it seemed to outsmart Pinterest. Some of the Pinterest features that Juxtapost had a much better plan are invite-only membership, no private boards, the process of exporting content and few more. However, When Pinterest got on and started to get a good response, Juxtapost began to lose some of its essential features but still was able to go strong in terms of improving its growth. A unique feature of Juxtapost is its “More Like this’ button, which allows you to see more of the content you have already seen, liked and opted to see more.

Manteresting
Manteresting is like a Pinterest version for men. Although there are many maps who are comfortable using Pinterest but Manteresting has purposely tried to emphasize on the demands and interest of men. Genres like Sports, video games, automobiles or technology can be easily found on Manteresting, which are the key topics for men. Also, here you do not ‘Pin’ images on ‘Boards’ rather ‘nail’ them on ‘workbenches’, stereotypically macho as they call it.
Apart from these popular look-alike sites of Pinterest Gentlemint, Dudepins and Liqurious are few others which also primarily focus on the interest of men. As the name suggests Gentlemint and Dudepins. Whereas, Liqurious is another extension for lovers, especially those who like drinks and like to drink as well. An interesting title for ‘Liqurious’ would be ‘Pinterest version for alcohol’.
