When social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok limit you to only a couple of external links leading from your profile, you have to get creative. And one option that has come out of this is a link-in-bio page.
A link-in-bio page is a landing page that you can link to from your social media platforms in an effort to lead visitors to a larger number of links. There are many ways to create these pages, but our goal here is to help you create one that’s easy to navigate and compelling for your audience to click through.

What is a link-in-bio page?
A link-in-bio page is a landing page created to lead visitors to more links than you’re allowed to use in other areas on Instagram. Because the platform doesn’t allow links in photo or video captions, many people will use this landing page as a way to make things more linkable.
However, this page can be used in several ways. Let’s look at an example to give you an idea of how a link-in-bio page works.
As you can see below, this plant influencer, @houseplantplus, has their bio link as “houseplantplus.com/bio-link.”

How to create a link-in-bio page
Let’s get ready to create your own link-in-bio page. This way, you can also offer more than one link to your social media followers. While the link-in-bio is most often used on Instagram and TikTok, where you can add links within your posts, it can work for any social media profile.
Find the right link-in-bio tool
Your first step is choosing a link-in-bio tool. Some people will simply create one on their own website—i.e., through WordPress or Squarespace—and then share it on social media, but there are also easy-to-use tools for this as well.
Browse between some of these top options to find the best for your needs:

Add your links
Once you’ve chosen the right link-in-bio tool for your micro-landing page, it’s time to add your links. You’ll want to add links that can help boost your creator income, promote your other channels, and facilitate a better experience with your Instagram, TikTok, etc.
Some ideas of links to include are:
- Your other social media profiles
- Your website
- Your online shop
- A digital product you want to push
- Your latest YouTube video or podcast episode
- Affiliate links to products you’ve recently promoted
- A contact page
You can always update your links regularly, as well, to make sure that any links you’ve recently mentioned appear at the top, easily accessible by those who’ve seen your content.
Design your page
Each link-in-bio tool will have its own method of designing your landing page. Some offer templates for you to customize, while others let you create more one-of-a-kind landing pages.
You may even be able to add in photos, information about you/your creative business, and other useful information.
However you choose to do it, make sure your link-in-bio page matches your branding, is visually appealing, isn’t overcrowded, and is easy to navigate. It should improve the overall experience with your creative business on social media, making it easy for people to find what they’re looking for.
Consider asking friends, fellow creators, or even some of your top followers to beta test your link-in-bio page to make sure it’s simple to use and nice to look at.
Add to your social media profiles
Finally, once you’ve added all your links and finalized your page design, it’s time to add it to your social media profiles. While platforms like Facebook and X/Twitter allow you to include links in your post captions, it may still be a smart strategy to use your bio link across all platforms.
Copy the link your link-in-bio tool gives you and place it in your bio on platforms like:
- TikTok
- X/Twitter
- YouTube
This is because the point of your link-in-bio page is to provide a single place for the most important links and information regarding your creative business. Share it wherever you can in order to increase clicks, reach, and potential income.
