## What a link in bio is

Most social profiles give you room for one website link. A link in bio is a small page behind that link that holds everything you want people to find: your latest release, your shop, your videos, your booking form and the rest of your socials. You put one short address in your bio, like mylinksare.com/yourname, and keep the page behind it up to date.

## Why creators and brands use one

- One link to share everywhere: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Threads, an email signature or a printed QR code.
- Change it once and every profile that links to it is up to date.
- Views, clicks and click rate show which links people actually tap.
- Link to a shop, take bookings and collect email sign-ups from the same page.
- Colours, typefaces and buttons make it feel like part of your brand.

## How to make one for free in three steps

1. Claim your name, like mylinksare.com/yourname, using the handle you already use on social media.
2. Add your links, social icons and blocks for music, video, a shop, events or bookings. Pick a theme or start from an example.
3. Publish, copy your link and paste it into the website field on each of your profiles.

## What to put in it

- Your newest thing first: a release, a launch, a sale or an event.
- Social icons for the platforms you post on.
- Ways to support you: a shop, tickets, bookings, tips or a fundraiser.
- An email or text sign-up, so you can reach people without an algorithm in the way.
- A contact form or business email for press and brands.

Short, specific button labels get more taps: “Watch the new video” beats “YouTube”.
