How To Put A Clickable Link In Your Instagram Bio
Straight to the point guide with some extra tips.
Do you want to put a link in your Instagram bio but have no idea how to do so? Don’t you worry!
In this article, I’ll show you how to put a link in your Instagram bio, tell you how to make the link clickable, and also give you a few valuable tips about making that link more effective.
And as a bonus, I’ll introduce a helpful tool that allows you to put more than one link in your bio.
How to put a clickable link in Instagram bio
1. Go to your profile and tap the “Edit profile” button.
2. Put your link in the “Website” field.
3. To save the result, just tap the checkmark icon at the top right.
And that’s it! Look how beautiful it is!
But let’s make it even better, shall we?
Useful tips about Instagram links
1. Let’s start with the most important one. Even though it’s called “Link in bio”, you should never put your link directly in the bio.
See? If you place your link in the “Bio” field, it’s impossible to notice it. And most importantly, it’s not clickable! So always put your link in the “Website” field.
2. Never put the “www.” part in your link. Instagram is smart enough to add it by itself. Always use domain name only. It will be shorter and look more professional.
3. Stop using so many hashtags in your bio. It looks messy! And some people won’t even notice your link.
4. You can always use some emojis to grab attention and make your link more noticeable.
Make your Instagram link in bio more effective
Now you know how to put a link in your bio and make it attractive. But what if you have more than one link to show? For example:
- What if you sell products and want to always show a couple of bestsellers to your customers?
- Or what if you are a thoughtful seller and want to give your customers different options to contact you?
- What if you’re active on different social media and want to get people from your Instagram there?
- Or what if you post content on different platforms? You want to be able to tell people about your new video and the new podcast episode at the same time, right?
But because Instagram only allows you to use one link in your bio, all these ideas seem impossible. But don’t worry, I’ve got the solution. To bypass that restriction, people created special services called “Link in Bio” tools.
These tools allow us to add several links at the same time. So, you just put the link to the tool in your bio and share all your links there.
Below you can see the page that opens after you click the link.
For the past five years, I‘ve studied many of those tools and I’m currently using Taplink. Why? Simply because it’s pretty easy to use, and I don’t need to spend a lot of time teaching my clients how to deal with it.
Start posting all your clickable links at once
Awesome! Now you know how to put a clickable link in your bio. You also learned a few useful tips on how to make your link more effective and added a new tool to your toolbox.
Now everything is in your hands! Good luck!
