What makes a good landing page for a yoga retreat or training

Having a landing page for your retreat or training is important.
But on its own, it is not enough.

A landing page is just one piece of your online presence. Its job is not to explain everything or convince everyone. Its job is to create clarity.

When that clarity is missing, even the most beautiful retreat or training can struggle to fill.

The role of a landing page is simple

A good landing page has one main role.
To answer the right questions, clearly and simply.

Most people do not arrive on a retreat or training page ready to commit. They arrive curious. Often distracted. Often unsure.

They are not reading every word.
They are scanning.

They are looking for signals that help them decide whether this offering is relevant to them.

People scan for clarity, not details

When someone lands on your page, they usually want quick orientation.

They are asking themselves, often unconsciously:

• Is this for me?

• Do I understand what this is about?

• Does this feel aligned?

• Is it worth exploring further?
  
  

If they cannot answer these questions easily, they leave. Not because the offering is wrong, but because the page makes them work too hard.

The essential questions every landing page should answer

A well structured landing page makes the answers to a few key questions obvious, early on.

A good landing page for a yoga retreat or training clearly answers:

• What is this offering about?
  The intention and focus should be immediately clear.
  
  

• Who is it for?
  People should quickly recognise whether they belong here.
  
  

• What can someone expect as a result of joining?
  Not promises, but a clear sense of what the experience offers.
  
  

• What happens next if they feel interested?
  The next step should feel simple and easy to take.
  
  

When these questions are answered early, people feel oriented instead of overwhelmed.

Clarity builds trust

A clear landing page does more than inform.
It builds trust.

When information is scattered, vague, or hidden, people hesitate. They may like your work, but uncertainty creates friction.

A clear structure shows care.
It tells people you respect their time and attention.

This is especially important for retreats and trainings, where commitment involves time, money, and energy.

One page, one purpose

A common mistake is trying to fit everything onto one page.

A landing page does not need:

• your entire life story

• every teaching philosophy

• long explanations

It needs focus.

One offering.
One intention.
One clear path forward.

Other details can live elsewhere. The landing page is the anchor.

When a landing page works well

A good landing page allows people to:

• understand the offering quickly

• feel whether it is right for them

• explore further if they choose

• take the next step without pressure
  
  

They do not need to search, scroll endlessly, or piece information together from different places.

Clarity does that work for them.

A simple reflection

If you are unsure whether your landing page is working, ask yourself:

Can someone understand what this retreat or training is about in the first few seconds?

If not, the solution is rarely more content.
It is usually better structure and clearer language.

A good landing page does not push people to sign up.
It helps the right people recognise themselves and take the next step when they are ready.

If you feel that your retreat or training deserves a clearer structure online, this is the kind of work I support.
