What is a link-in-bio?
by Alex on
Over the past ten years, the creator industry has exploded. We've seen the rise of social media influencers taking advantage of platforms like Instagram and TikTok to build their personal brands and monetize their content.
However the problem has always been, how best to drive traffic from your content to your other channels, and how best to monetize your brand.
Link in bio tools have become a popular solution to this problem. They provide an easy way for individuals and businneses to easily create a landing page for their content, and drive traffic to their other channels. Whether that be a website, a Youtube video, an Etsy store, or a podcast.
The One-Link Headache
These tools also came about due to the restrictions that platforms such as TikTok and Instagram have on sharing links with posts. Creators have had to find workarounds to share multiple links with their audience, and link in bio tools have become a popular solution.
Tools like Linktree and Beacons have grown popular due to their ease of use, but they also come with a lot of limitations.
Building a better link-in-bio
This is where the next generation of link-in-bio tools like Glow come in. Glow does all of the stuff that Linktree and Beacons do, but with a focus on being dynamic and pulling in content from across your socials, rather than being static.
