What is a TikTok link in bio?

A TikTok link in bio refers to the single clickable URL that users are allowed to add to their profile bio.

Because TikTok and many other social platforms do not allow users to insert clickable links into individual video captions, creators and brands often use the phrase “link in bio” in their video captions or verbally during their videos to direct viewers to their creator’s profile page where they can see one clickable link on the URL in the bio.

Why Do You Need a TikTok Link in Bio?

Here’s why a “Link in Bio” is beneficial on TikTok:

Single Link Limitation

The TikTok app only allows users to have one external link in their bio. So, if you want to direct followers to an external website, landing page, or another social platform, you’re limited to just that one spot.

Drive Traffic

With a captivating video, viewers may be curious to learn more about you or your brand. The bio link provides a clear direction to where they can access additional information.

Monetization

Content creators can direct their followers to online stores, merchandise shops, affiliate products, or other revenue-generating platforms.

Promote Other Platforms

If you’re active on other social media accounts or have a main platform you want to share (like YouTube, Instagram, or a personal website), this link can serve as a bridge to those.
