What’s the difference between a link and a Bio Link? One has so much more potential than the other. Expand your promotion and work around Instagram’s one URL per bio rule. You could reach a much bigger audience at no cost.
What is a link in bio?
It’s exactly what it suggests, a link within your bio. However, creating a Bio Link offers a lot more choice for both yourself and your audience than simply placing a URL within your bio. A link in bio could be anything. You might add your website URL, or a link to your Facebook page within your Instagram bio. They’re the first thing people see when clicking on your Instagram profile. They see your bio and image. Adding something there is far more likely to get clicks than if you try and promote it via your posts.
Instagram don’t allow hyperlinks within your posts. If you add a URL to your description when uploading content, it won’t be clickable. Instead, you need to direct people to your bio. Add a snippet at the end of your post that says “link can be found in bio” – people will head straight there. There they’ll be able to access all relevant links. If you want to promote your store, you can do so within every post. Encouraging your followers to click on the link within your bio. Creating a Bio Link will allow you to customise your URL. Giving your followers the best experience possible.
