Introduction to Pinterest Traffic for Retreat Websites
When a potential participant stumbles across your retreat work online, what happens next?
Do they feel invited deeper into your world — or do they scroll past without taking the next step?
Pinterest offers a unique opportunity to create a gentle, guided path toward your retreat website — one that feels like an unfolding invitation, not a hard sell.
Unlike Instagram or Facebook, where content quickly disappears into a feed, Pinterest content continues working for you in the background. It brings people from inspiration to action — and eventually, to your website.
At Lunita Jungle Retreat, we walk alongside facilitators who are ready to share their offerings with the world, while staying rooted in soul and integrity. Pinterest has become one of the most beautiful bridges between that inner calling and the outer visibility that retreat leaders need.
This guide will show you how to use Pinterest to increase traffic to your retreat website — in a way that’s aligned, clear, and sustainable.
Why Pinterest Is a Unique Traffic Source for Retreat Leaders
Most people on Pinterest aren’t just browsing — they’re planning. They’re searching for experiences that align with their desires: transformation, travel, healing, and renewal. Retreats naturally fit that intention.
Pinterest also functions more like a visual search engine than a social media feed. This means your content is searchable and discoverable for years — not just hours or days.
By combining clear imagery, strategic linking, and soulful messaging, you can steadily guide visitors from your pins to your website, where they can learn more or book a call.
6 Ways to Drive Traffic from Pinterest to Your Retreat Website
1. 🌿 Use Direct Links in Every Pin
Every pin you post should link directly to a relevant page on your website:
Your main retreat offering
A blog post (like this one!)
A free guide or lead magnet
Your “Host a Retreat” page if you rent space, like we do at Lunita Jungle Retreat
Never leave the link field blank — and make sure the destination matches the pin content.
2. 🖋 Write Compelling Pin Descriptions with Keywords
The description under your pin should:
Use natural keywords (e.g., “spiritual retreat in Mexico”)
Give a clear reason to click (“Learn what to pack for your jungle retreat”)
Feel authentic and informative, not pushy
Example:
“This retreat packing list includes everything you need for a transformational week in the jungle — from ceremony clothes to natural bug repellent.”
3. ✨ Use “Calls to Curiosity,” Not Just Calls to Action
Rather than saying “Click here,” try inviting with soft, heart-centered language:
“Discover what makes this ceremony so powerful…”
“See how a sacred jungle space changed her life…”
“Explore the rituals used at Lunita Jungle Retreat…”
This approach aligns better with the energetic field of retreat work.
4. 📌 Create Multiple Pins for One Page
For each blog post, retreat page, or service you offer, create 3–5 unique pins that link to the same URL. Change the image, title, or color to appeal to different audiences.
This increases reach and gives your content multiple chances to be seen.
5. 📈 Use Rich Pins
Enable “Rich Pins” on your website so Pinterest pulls in extra info from your site — like the page title, author, or meta description. This makes your pins look more complete and trustworthy.
If you’re on Wix (like Lunita Jungle), this can be enabled with just a few setup steps.
6. 🧭 Link to Specific, Not General, Pages
Instead of sending all traffic to your homepage, create pins that go to:
Your retreat-specific page
A “Meet the Facilitator” page
Your booking or inquiry form
When visitors land where they expect to, trust is built — and conversions increase.

Can Pinterest really bring traffic to a small retreat website?

FAQs about Pinterest Traffic for Retreat Websites
How do I track traffic from Pinterest to my website?
Use Google Analytics to monitor traffic sources. You’ll see Pinterest as a “referral” source and can track user behavior.
Should I use a landing page or my main site?
Use both. For specific offers or lead magnets, landing pages convert well. For overall visibility, link to your main retreat or blog pages.
Can I use Pinterest if I don’t have a blog?
Yes, but having blog content helps. If you don’t blog, link pins to your retreat pages, photo galleries, or booking forms.
How many pins should I post per week?
Aim for 5–10 pins per week. You can batch-create pins once a month to stay consistent without stress.
Do I need to pay to get traffic from Pinterest?
No — Pinterest is one of the most powerful organic traffic sources, especially when SEO is used well.
Should I delete pins that don’t perform well?
No need. Unlike Instagram, underperforming pins don’t harm your account. They may still gain traction later.
What’s the best time of year to use Pinterest for retreats?
Start pinning 3–4 months before your retreat. Users on Pinterest plan far in advance, especially for travel and wellness.
Can I hire someone to manage my Pinterest?
Yes — and some facilitators collaborate with their retreat venue for support. At Lunita, we often help leaders repurpose content to fit Pinterest’s best practices.
