How to make a Linktree for your Instagram

Instagram limits users to only one link in their bio, which can be a problem for content creators, and pretty much anyone who might want their followers to visit more than one link. The usual solution — updating your bio every time you have a new link to share — can be time-consuming.

Linktree is a tool that helps you share all your links with your followers. Linktree makes it easy to share your work, links to organizations you'd like your followers to donate to, and whatever else you want to want people to click, all through one link in your Instagram bio. It's also a way for you to share all your other social media accounts with your followers on Instagram. For example, you can feature your Twitter, Letterboxd, and Substack all on your Linktree.

1. Go to linktr.ee to create your Linktree account
