TL;DR
Google Sites doesn’t have a native Pinterest integration. The fastest way to embed a live Pinterest board on your Google Sites page is to use SociableKIT’s Pinterest board widget.
You create a widget, paste your Pinterest board URL, copy the embed code, and add it to Google Sites using the “Embed” feature.
Your pins show up automatically, update in real time, and look great on any device. No coding needed. You can start free and upgrade when you’re ready.

Why Embed a Pinterest Board on Google Sites?
Pinterest boards are visual portfolios. They showcase your products, ideas, design inspirations, and brand aesthetic in a format people already love browsing. But your Pinterest board lives on Pinterest – and your audience is on your website.
When you embed a Pinterest board directly on your Google Sites page, you get several advantages:
Your visitors see your curated visual content without leaving your site. They stay longer, browse more, and build trust with your brand. Your Google Sites page becomes more engaging because it features dynamic, image-rich content that updates automatically every time you pin something new. And you don’t need to manually update your website every time you add a pin – the widget handles it.
This is especially useful for portfolios, product showcases, mood boards, event planning pages, school projects, nonprofit campaigns, and small business websites built on Google Sites.
How to Embed a Pinterest Board on Google Sites (Step-by-Step)
Here is how to add a live Pinterest board feed to any Google Sites page using SociableKIT:
Step 1: Create a Free SociableKIT Account
Go to SociableKIT.com and sign up. No credit card required.
Step 2: Create a Pinterest Board Widget
Once inside your dashboard, create a new widget and select Pinterest Board as your source. Paste the full URL of the Pinterest board you want to display. For example: https://www.pinterest.com/yourusername/your-board-name/
Step 3: Customize the Look and Feel
SociableKIT gives you control over how your Pinterest feed appears. You can adjust the layout (grid, list, or carousel), colors, fonts, number of pins displayed, and spacing to match your Google Sites page design. Preview your changes in real time before publishing.
Step 4: Copy the Embed Code
Once you’re happy with the design, click Get Embed Code and copy the HTML snippet.
Step 5: Add It to Google Sites
Open your Google Sites page in edit mode. Click Insert → Embed → Embed Code. Paste the SociableKIT embed code and click Next, then Insert. Resize the embedded widget to fit your page layout. Click Publish, and your live Pinterest board feed is now on your Google Sites page.
That’s it. Your Pinterest board now appears on your Google Sites page, auto-updates when you add new pins, and works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
What Your Embedded Pinterest Board Looks Like
When visitors land on your Google Sites page, they’ll see a clean, professional Pinterest board feed embedded directly into your content. Here’s what they experience:
A live grid of your latest pins – with images, descriptions, and links – displayed in a responsive layout that adapts to any screen size. The feed updates automatically, so your website always reflects your most recent Pinterest activity. No manual work on your end.
A polished, on-brand presentation – because you’ve customized the colors, layout, and styling to match your site. It doesn’t look like a random third-party widget. It looks like it belongs on your page.
A seamless browsing experience – your visitors can scroll through your pins without leaving your site. This keeps them engaged, reduces bounce rates, and increases the time they spend on your page.
Go Beyond Pinterest: Combine Multiple Social Feeds in One Widget
Here’s where SociableKIT gets really powerful.
SociableKIT’s social feed widget doesn’t just display Pinterest boards – it can pull content from multiple social platforms into a single, unified feed on your Google Sites page.
Imagine showing your Pinterest board alongside your Instagram posts, Facebook page updates, YouTube videos, and TikTok content – all in one widget with a tabbed interface. Your visitors can switch between a “Featured” tab, an “All” tab, and individual tabs for each connected source.
This means your Google Sites page becomes a centralized social proof hub. Instead of linking out to five different platforms and hoping visitors follow through, you bring all that content directly to them in one place. It’s a better experience for your visitors and a stronger presentation for your brand.
Whether you’re a small business showcasing customer content, a creator displaying your portfolio across platforms, or a nonprofit sharing campaign updates – the social feed widget lets you consolidate everything into a single, polished embed on Google Sites.
