What Is a Link in Bio Page?
If you’ve spent any time on Instagram, TikTok, or other social media platforms, you’ve likely come across the term “link in bio.” Since most social networks allow only a single link in your profile, creators and businesses use a link bio page to showcase multiple destinations — such as websites, product pages, booking forms, or YouTube videos — all from one simple URL.
This is where tools like Linktree gained their popularity. They make it easy to share all your important links in one place, helping brands and individuals guide their audience to the right destinations quickly and effectively.
Why Linktree Became So Popular
When Linktree first launched, it solved a major problem for content creators and businesses who needed to share more than one link on their social media profiles. Its easy setup, clean interface, and ability to add buttons and custom backgrounds made it a go-to solution for influencers, small businesses, and marketers alike.
However, while the free version is limited, the paid plans introduce additional costs — and for WordPress website owners, this isn’t always necessary. If your site uses Elementor, you already have all the tools to create your own free Linktree-style page — fully branded, customisable, and hosted on your own domain.
How to Build Your Own Linktree-Like Page in Elementor
Here’s how you can easily set up your own link bio page using Elementor in just a few simple steps:
#1. Create a New Page
From your WordPress dashboard, go to Pages → Add New, and give it a name like “Linkbio” or “Social Links.” This will be the page you’ll share on your social media profiles.
#2. Change the Template to Elementor Canvas
To create a distraction-free design, change the page template to Elementor Canvas. This removes the default header and footer, giving you a clean, blank canvas for your custom layout — just like Linktree.
#3. Add a Container
Open the page in Elementor and add a Container element. Set the width to around 750px and centre it on the page. This creates a compact, mobile-friendly layout that looks great across all devices.
#4. Add Your Logo and Buttons
Use an Image widget to add your logo or profile photo at the top. Then, below it, start adding Buttons for each link you want to include — for example:
- Website
- Shop Online
- Book a Consultation
- Follow on Instagram
- Watch on YouTube
Customise the colours and typography to match your brand style. You can even use gradients or icons to make your buttons stand out.
#5. Publish and Update Your Social Profile Links
Once you’re happy with the design, click Publish. Copy the page URL (e.g. yourwebsite.com/linkbio) and update your social media profiles to point to this new page instead.
Now, every time someone clicks your bio link, they’ll land on a fully branded, on-domain experience — no third-party ads, no limitations, and no monthly fees.
Why Build It Yourself Instead of Using Linktree?
Building your own version gives you:
- Full control over design, branding, and analytics
- No external ads or branding on your page
- Improved SEO benefits since it lives on your domain
- No subscription fees — it’s completely free
- Flexibility to add advanced features with Elementor and WordPress plugins
It’s a simple but powerful way to keep all your traffic and data in one place — under your own brand.
