How to Add a Link to Your TikTok Bio (2026 Guide)

To add a link to your TikTok bio: open your profile, tap Edit profile, tap the Website field, paste your URL and tap Save. If you do not see a Website field, you are probably on a personal account with fewer than 1,000 followers; that is TikTok's threshold, and there are two honest ways around it covered below.

The exact steps in 2026

1. Open TikTok and tap Profile in the bottom right corner of the app.
2. Tap Edit profile, the button directly under your bio and stats.
3. Tap Website. It sits in the list alongside Name, Username and Bio. This is the only field on the profile that produces a tappable link.
4. Paste your full URL, including the https:// part. Paste it rather than typing it; a single typo here quietly sends every tap nowhere.
5. Tap Save. Back on your profile you will see the link as a tappable line under your bio. Tap it once yourself to confirm it opens.

That is the whole mechanic. The two things that actually decide whether the link earns anything are whether you can see the field at all, and what you put behind it.

The 1,000-follower requirement, explained

On a personal account, TikTok only shows the Website field once you pass 1,000 followers. There is no application and no toggle; the field simply appears in Edit profile when you cross the line. Typing a URL into your bio text does not work as a substitute: it renders as plain text and nobody can tap it.

Business accounts play by different rules. Switching to a business account (Settings, then Account, then Switch to Business Account) unlocks the Website field without the 1,000-follower minimum. The trade-off is real: business accounts are limited to TikTok's commercial music library, which rules out most trending sounds. For many creators under 1,000 followers, the practical move is to switch to business long enough to need it, or simply to focus on hitting 1,000, which also unlocks live streaming.

• Personal account, 1,000+ followers: Website field available, all sounds available.
• Personal account, under 1,000: no Website field yet; bio text links are not tappable.
• Business account, any size: Website field available, commercial sounds only.

You get one link. Make it hold everything.

TikTok gives you exactly one URL, and it is the only clickable exit from your profile. Pointing it at a single product or a single video wastes it, because your profile visitors want different things: the song, the preset pack, the newsletter, the merch. The standard answer is a link in bio page: one URL that opens a page holding every link you care about, with the important ones gated or priced.

That last part matters more on TikTok than anywhere else. TikTok traffic spikes: a video runs for 48 hours, sends thousands of profile taps, then stops. A page with an email gate converts that spike into an audience you keep, and a priced link converts it into revenue, instead of letting the wave roll through a list of plain URLs. You can build the page in about a minute with the link in bio maker, and the link in bio for TikTok page covers the TikTok-specific setup end to end.

Troubleshooting: when the link will not behave

• No Website field: you are under 1,000 followers on a personal account. Switch to a business account or keep growing.
• Link shows but will not open: check the URL starts with https:// and has no trailing spaces. Re-paste it cleanly.
• Link disappeared: if you dropped back under the threshold or switched account types, the field can vanish with your link. Re-add it once eligible.
• Taps but no results: that is not a TikTok problem, it is a destination problem. If the link opens a slow storefront or a wall of options, people leave. One clean page, three to five links, the money link on top.

Then measure what the link earns

Once the link is live, every video description becomes a funnel: "link in bio" only pays if you can see which video drove which clicks. ExclusiveLink shows per-link clicks and revenue by day, so a spike in the chart maps to the video that caused it, and you can make more of what works. Plans start at $19 a month; the link in bio pricing page has the full breakdown.

The field takes two minutes; the page behind it is the actual decision. Build yours with the link in bio maker, put the URL in your Website field, and the next video that runs has somewhere profitable to send people.
