How to Make a Link in Bio Page in WordPress (Linktree Alternative)

Do you want to make a link in bio page in WordPress?

A link in bio page is a popular way to send traffic from social media to multiple pages on your website. It’s commonly used by Instagram influencers and other social media celebrities.

In this article, we’ll show you how to easily make a link in bio page in WordPress.

Why Create a Link in Bio Page in WordPress?

Social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook only allow a single link in your profile. Thankfully, there’s a workaround.

Instead of sending users to a single page, you can create a link in bio page that sends traffic to multiple pages on your WordPress website.

There are services like LinkTree, ContactInBio, Bio.FM, and more that help you create link in bio pages. However, by using a WordPress plugin you can create a link in bio page without having to use a third party service.

Creating your own landing page gives you complete control over how that page looks, so you can match your unique branding or color scheme.

In the following image, you can see the custom link in bio we use for WPBeginner.

You can also add analytics and track the page’s performance, so you can see exactly what’s working and what isn’t. You can then fine-tune the page to get the very best results.

With that said, let’s take a look at how you can create a link in bio landing page in WordPress.

How to Create a Link in Bio Page in WordPress Using SeedProd

The easiest way to create a link in bio page is by using SeedProd.

SeedProd is the best drag and drop page builder that allows you to create custom pages in WordPress without having to write any code.

With this plugin, you can easily create a link in bio page that includes lots of different links.

For this guide, we’re going to focus on making an Instagram bio link page. However, you can use the same page design for any social media network.

First thing you need to do is install the SeedProd plugin. For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

Note: There is also a free version of SeedProd that you can use, but we’ll be using the Pro version since it has more features and templates.

Upon activation, go to SeedProd » Settings and enter your license key.

You can find this information under your account on the SeedProd website. After entering your license, click on the ‘Verify Key’ button.

To create a landing page, head over to SeedProd » Landing Pages and then click the ‘Add New Landing Page’ button.

You can now choose a template for your link in bio page.

SeedProd’s templates are organized into different campaign types such as coming soon, thank you, and sales pages. You can click on the tabs at the top of the screen to look at the templates for the different campaign types.

To get started, click on the ‘Lead Squeeze’ tab and hover your mouse over the ‘Personal Links’ template. When it appears, click on the orange ‘Checkmark’ icon.

Next, go ahead and type in a name for the link in bio page. SeedProd will automatically create a URL based on the title you type in, but you can change this URL to anything you want.

A descriptive URL will help search engines understand what the page is about, so they can show it to the right users. With that in mind, you may want to change the web address. For example, you might include some relevant keywords or phrases that you want your link in bio page to rank for.

After that, click the ‘Save and Start Editing the Page’ button.

After choosing a template, SeedProd will open that design in its drag and drop page builder.

You’ll see a live preview of your page on the right, and some settings on the left.

The Personal Links template already comes with some blocks, which are a core part of all SeedProd designs.

To customize any of these ready-made blocks, simply click to select the block in your layout. You can then customize the block using the settings in the left-hand menu. For example, in the following image we’re changing the text in the ‘Headline’ block.

To add a new block to your design, simply find the block in the left-hand menu. Then, drag it onto your layout.

You can now customize the block following the same process described above.

Since we’re creating an Instagram bio link page, we’ll delete the main image and the placeholder text.

To do this, just hover your mouse over the image. Then, click on the ‘Trash Can’ icon and select ‘Yes, delete it!’

After that, follow the same steps to delete the placeholder text.

This gives us a very simple page layout, which is perfect for creating a link in bio page.

Next, you can replace the header with your name, business name, or even upload your own custom logo.

To add a logo to the top of the page, drag an image block from the left-hand menu and drop it onto your layout.

Once you’ve done that, click to select the ‘Image’ block in your layout.

Then, select ‘Use Your Own Image’ from the left-hand menu and either choose an image from the media library, or upload a new file from your computer. The process is the same as adding an image in WordPress.

After adding an image, you can use the settings on the left to change the image’s size, alignment, and more.

You can even add a link that goes to your homepage, or any other page on your WordPress blog. To do this, simply type an address into the ‘Link’ field.

By default, the template has three links. You’ll want to replace these with links to your own content, so click to select each placeholder URL.

Then, type a new URL into the ‘Link’ field.

You can also use these settings to change the button text, size, alignment and more. If you want to change the button’s overall design, then go ahead and click on ‘Templates.’

Here, you’ll find lots of different button designs to choose from.

If you want to further customize the button, then click on the ‘Advanced’ tab.

Here you can change the size of the button, use a different background color, and more.

By default, your link in bio page is fully responsive so it’ll look good on smaller screens including smartphones and tablets.

To preview how your link in bio page will look on mobile devices, simply click on the ‘Mobile Preview’ button at the bottom of the left-hand menu.

When you’re happy with how the bio page looks, make sure to click ’Save.’

To make your page live, click the arrow next to ‘Save’ and select the ‘Publish’ option.

Your link in bio page is now live, and you can add the link to all of your social media profiles.

Bonus: How to Add Analytics to Your Link in Bio Page

Services like LinkTree also offer page analytics to help you figure out what’s working, and spot any areas where you can improve.

This might mean fine-tuning your link in bio page or changing other activities, such as how you promote that page. In this way, you can increase pageviews and reduce bounce rate.

With that in mind, you’ll want to add analytics to the link in bio page.

Google Analytics is the best website analytics tool, and you can easily add it to your website using MonsterInsights.

MonsterInsights is the best analytics plugin for WordPress and lets you view your website stats directly in the WordPress dashboard. This helps you see how your link in bio page is performing at a glance.

Note: There is a free version of MonsterInsights available, but we’ll be using the pro version since it has more features and the addons we need.

For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install Google Analytics in WordPress.

Once you’ve set up MonsterInsights and Google Analytics, go to to Insights » Addons in your WordPress dashboard.

After that, find ‘Page Insights’ and then install and activate this addon.

After that, go to Page » All Pages and find the link in bio page you created.

Then, click on ‘Insights,’ which is the icon that looks like a graph.

This will bring up your page statistics and show you the bounce rate, number of entrances, time on page, and more. You can use this insight to increase your blog traffic.

If you’ve only just launched your link in bio page, then MonsterInsights may not show your data straight away so don’t panic if this page is blank at first.
