Anyone who uses social networks, especially Instagram, and wants to promote links to their business ends up bumping into the restriction that does not allow them to use more than one link in their bio. But know that it is possible to resolve this issue with the Link Tree.
The best way to use social media is as a source of traffic for your website or service and sales channels. For this, it is necessary to disclose links.
However, on Instagram, this type of disclosure is more complicated, especially for those who have not yet reached the 10 thousand followers mark and, therefore, do not have the “Drag Up” option in Stories.
For these people, the bio link is the option. Therefore, knowing how to take advantage of it in the best possible way is very important and this can be done using Link Tree.
In this text, we will show you how you can promote multiple links from your Instagram bio using Link Tree.
What is LinkTree?
Link Tree is an online tool known as a link aggregator. Its function is to provide multiple links through a single url.
With this, it is possible to disclose as many links as necessary using only the url generated by the tool.
This url works normally like any other, so it can be easily added in the bio and even on the networks. As it is personalized, you can even advertise it on a business card, for example.
Translating the name of the tool into Portuguese, it is now possible to have an idea of ​​how it works. Tree means tree, which leads us to understand that the tool allows you to create a tree of links.
See the example of our Link Tree. By clicking on the link in Camila Porto's Instagram bio, the user is directed to the page below. In it, you will find a series of links that we consider very important.
Among them the links to the courses, the blog and even the direct link to our Telegram channel.
Why use Link Tree?
We recommend using aggregators like Link Tree to make using your bio much more functional.
Having a link that takes you to your website is great. But having the option to also leave links to a promotion like Black Friday, a giveaway or even to your WhatsApp is even better.
Thus, you shorten the path between you and your customer. As a result, your retention results end up being much better.
Imagine that your customer wants to get in touch with you and is looking for your WhatsApp. In your bio, there is the link to the home page of your website.
Then he will have to do the following way: enter your Instagram profile > access your website > access your contacts page > find your Instagram number > add you to his contacts > start the conversation.
It's a long way, don't you think? Many customers give up right away.
Now, if you were using Link Tree, the path would be much shorter. Your customer would: enter your Instagram profile > access your bio link > click on the WhatsApp option and that's it, the conversation with you would start.
In addition, Link Tree also provides access data on its links. So you can track how many people are clicking on the links in your bio. Cool huh?
Is Link Tree paid?
Link Tree has two plans for those who want to use the tool.
The first is a free plan, which allows you to insert an unlimited number of links into the aggregator, have access to link access reports and make basic customization of the tool by inserting a profile image and choosing the background.
The second is the PRO plan, with a more complete version of the tool. It has the same benefits as the basics, but has several other customizations, integration with Facebook, YouTube, etc. In addition to allowing the insertion of priority links and providing more data about the clicks you receive.
This more complete version is available for R$16 per month.
