Pinterest for Tourism
Businesses
Some of the latest stats reveal Pinterest is the 2nd highest in website referral
traffic, second only to Facebook.
From our experience, Pinterest is now the number one source of high-quality referral traffic for many of
the travel and tourism websites we manage.
If you’re on the fence about Pinterest’s preeminence among travel marketing trends,
here are four reasons why your travel business should consider Pinterest:
Tourism Marketing Trends You Can’t Ignore
1Visual Tools Are Most Effective
Pinterest is a highly visual social media platform that plays on the
allure of high-quality images.
The great thing about being in the tourism industry is that you probably have a well-stocked list of photo possibilities for your tour, hotel, or region.
Since the average customer’s attention span is eight seconds (less than that of a goldfish) it’s pretty safe to say you need to grab their attention as quickly as possible.
Visuals simply speak louder than words. A potential guest will be much more likely to book your hotel or tour if they can visualize themselves there—instead of just reading
about the experience.

future.

brand.

3 Investing in Pinterest =
Lasting Results
One common mistake people make is looking at Pinterest as a social media platform alone. While it is coined as such, it really operates
more as a search engine.
If users like what they see and repin your pin, it gets blasted out to all of their followers,
effectively creating a ripple effect of clicks and shares.
