Adding links to your social media bio is a great way to promote your other socials.
In addition, if you have a business, adding your website to your bio can increase your website traffic and conversions.
However, adding a plain link to your bio isn’t that effective.

For example, at the end of your captions, you can add the “Link in bio” phrase.
On Instagram, you can get people to click the link in your bio by prompting people to do so in your stories.
At the end of the day, most social media platforms only allow one link in your profile.
