We know your bio link is used as a social business card, a mobile-ready website, and much more. It’s a good enough reason to make sure your profile stands out. Your bio link is good, but let’s make it the best!

1. Shorter the link, the better

Your bio link URL should be simple and very closely related to your name or brand. Remember your bio link will spread across various social media channels.

Additionally, this would be useful in cases where you have to verbally tell your link out, i.e., in your YouTube video or Twitch Stream. Hence, an easy-to-spell and memorable URL is critical for your bio link.

2. Never miss your name

Add a Profile name to your bio link page and use the About section to introduce yourself and what you are doing for your fans! Let it be crisp and short.

Better still, you can always change it up when you’ve got urgent announcements to make.

3. Save your space with social icons

We have added a bunch of popular social icons for you. This means you don’t need to take up space on your Bio Link page just to link all your social media platforms. All you gotta do is set up your icons, and we will make sure they are right at the top of your Bio Link page.

Can’t find the social icon you are looking for? Let us know!

4. Add GIFs to your Links

You can add GIFs or Images to your link buttons to spruce up your Bio Link page. Now, this is a fantastic way to grab attention on your priority links. Yes, this is how we signal our fans!

When adding a gif, you can either upload your own or select one from the collection. Here is how to add Images/GIFs to your links.

5. Embeds are saviors!

When a fan clicks on your embed, your video or live stream or tweet will open out. This helps in increasing your video views and engagement.

If they like what they see, they can click on the video to go straight to your YouTube channel and maybe hit that subscribe button!

Note: When you embed a video or a song, your fans can play the content directly on your Bio Link while browsing other links without navigating away from your page. Awesome, right?

4. Organise your page with Headers

Adding a wide variety of links will house many interest groups rather than fitting your page to just one of them. But don’t forget to organize your links. Grouping your links under headers will help your fans to find them out real quick!

For example, if you are an artist, you might want to group your artworks separately from your contact details. And headers would be just the right thing for you!

6. Stay creative with your Theme

We have some cool default themes out there. But, if you are planning to add a custom theme, make sure of the following:

  1. Upload a high-quality background image/GIF.
  2. Pick out a button color that compliments your background.
  3. Your bio link is the one meeting place of all your fans. It’s a good enough reason to make sure your font goes along pretty well with the tone of your profile!
