Linky

You know that feeling when someone lands on your profile, you know they’re interested, and yet… nothing happens? They bounce. They scroll on. They disappear into the algorithmic void. Why? Because your one link — that sacred bit of real estate in your bio — wasn’t built to convert. Not really.

Let’s be honest. If your link-in-bio is still pointing to just your latest video, one sales page, or a single “about me,” you’re leaving money, attention, and opportunity on the table. You’re not just underselling your work — you’re selling yourself short.

The One-Link Trap (And Why It's Outdated)

Once upon a time, social media platforms didn’t let you link anywhere. So when that little bio field finally let you add a clickable link, it felt like magic. Naturally, creators used it to spotlight whatever was hottest: the new drop, the big launch, the freshly uploaded vlog.

But here’s the thing: attention is fickle. Today’s followers are multitasking across apps, checking messages mid-scroll, and deciding in milliseconds whether to click or keep moving. If your one link isn’t relevant to them in that moment, they’re gone.

Even worse? That single link assumes everyone wants the same thing. And that’s just not true. A new follower might want to binge your content. A brand manager could be hunting for your rates. A longtime fan might be ready to buy something. One link can’t serve all those needs.

Think Like a Homepage, Not a Hallway

Here’s the shift: stop treating your link-in-bio like a hallway that only leads to one door. Start treating it like a homepage — the front porch of your creative world.

What makes a great homepage? It’s a mix of clarity and character. It welcomes visitors. It shows them what you’re about and where they can go next — on their own terms.

Your link-in-bio page should do the same. It can highlight:

Your latest content (without burying the rest)
A mini shop for digital goods or merch
Contact buttons for collabs or bookings
A sign-up for your newsletter or community
Something fun or surprising (a quiz, a playlist, a live countdown)

And yes, all in one place — no clutter, just curated.

With a tool like Linky, you can build a page that’s less “link dump” and more “creative menu.”

What a Converting Bio Page Actually Looks Like

Let’s break it down. A bio page that converts doesn’t just look pretty — it works smart.

Here’s what sets a high-performing one apart:

Clear Call-to-Action at the Top: Not hidden below the fold. Not in tiny gray font. Think: “Shop My Presets,” “Book Me for Events,” or “Watch the New Series.”
Visual Hierarchy: Use thumbnails, dividers, and emojis to guide the eye. If you sell things, make that visually distinct from your content links.
Smart Organization: Group links — maybe a “For Brands,” a “For Fans,” and a “New Here?” section.
Consistent Branding: Stick to your aesthetic. Your colors, fonts, even your tone of voice. Linky lets you customize all of that, right down to link animations.
Mobile-First Design: Your audience is viewing this on their phones. Keep it scrollable, tappable, and quick to load.

Let People Pick Their Journey

One of the most underrated parts of a good bio page? Giving visitors choices.

Someone might be curious but not ready to buy — give them a playlist or freebie first. Another might want to DM you — offer a contact form or direct link to email. Let people opt into your world however they want.

Even better: you can time-shift your links. Tools like Linky let you swap featured links automatically — different ones on weekdays vs. weekends, during a product drop, or tied to events. It’s like your bio is doing conversion strategy behind the scenes.

Real Creators. Real Results.

Want a peek at what this looks like in real life?

@thesidequestpodcast have built a page which not only has their links, but also embeds the latest episodes of the podcast right in to the page.
@goodfellas have built a page which directs people to their top links, and gives their users an easy way to subscribe to their newsletter.

These aren’t unicorns. They’re just creators who stopped pointing to one thing — and started designing an experience.
