How to Add a Link to Your TikTok Bio (2026 Guide)
A clickable link in your TikTok bio is the main way to send followers to your website, shop or other profiles. This guide shows how to add it, who can use the website field, how to format the URL and what to do if the option is missing.
Quick answer: open the TikTok app, go to your profile, tap Edit profile, find the Website (or Links) field, paste a full URL starting with https:// and save. A Business account gets the field regardless of follower count.

Key Takeaways
- Use the mobile app. The website field is edited from the TikTok app, not from a browser.
- Business accounts get the field. Several guides say they can add a link with no follower minimum.
- Personal accounts are less clear. The 1,000-follower rule is commonly cited, but guides disagree on whether it still applies.
- Include https://. A bare domain may save as plain text instead of a clickable link.
- You get one slot. Use a link-in-bio page if you need several destinations.

Who Can Add a Link in a TikTok Bio?
| Account type | Website field | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Business account | Available | Several guides say there is no follower minimum, but the music library is limited to commercial music. |
| Personal or Creator account | Depends | Many guides cite a 1,000-follower requirement, while some say TikTok removed it. Check whether the field appears in your app. |
| Under 18 | Often hidden | The website field is generally not shown to minors. |
Because sources disagree on the personal-account rule, the most reliable test is to open Edit profile and see whether the Website field appears. A Business account works under every version of the rule. Read more in our guide to TikTok Business accounts.
How to Format the URL
- Include https://. Typing only mysite.com may save as plain text rather than a clickable link.
- Use a clean address. Avoid long tracking strings and URL shorteners, which look suspicious to visitors.
- Test on another phone. Open your profile in a private browser or on another device to check the link works.
- Avoid blocked domains. TikTok can block domains flagged for spam or phishing.
If the Website Field Is Missing
- Update the app. An old version may not show the field.
- Switch to a Business account. In Settings and privacy, open Account, then Switch to Business Account.
- Check your age. Minors often do not get the field.
- Grow your audience. If the follower rule applies to you, see how to get more followers on TikTok.
- Use the Instagram button. You can link your Instagram account separately. See how to add your Instagram to TikTok.
Linking to More Than One Place
TikTok gives you one link slot. If you need to send people to a shop, a newsletter and other profiles, point that slot to a link-in-bio page. Several tools we have reviewed include one:
| Tool | Link in bio | Review |
|---|---|---|
| Planoly | Free link-in-bio page that can sell digital products | Planoly review |
| CoSchedule | Link-in-bio page for Instagram and TikTok | CoSchedule review |
| Metricool | Smartlinks with unlimited links | Metricool review |

Tips for Better Clicks
- Say why to click. Add a short line in your bio such as “Free guide in the link”.
- Mention the link in videos. Remind viewers with a caption or a spoken call to action. Use our TikTok captions for ideas.
- Keep the link current. Update it when a promotion ends, and re-check it after you change your username.
- Track results. Use UTM parameters or your link tool’s stats, and read our guide to TikTok analytics.
What to Put in Your TikTok Link
| Goal | Best link |
|---|---|
| Sell products | Your shop or a product page |
| Grow your email list | A lead magnet or sign-up page |
| Promote a blog or video | Your latest article or a playlist page |
| Several destinations | A link-in-bio page with multiple buttons |
| Grow other platforms | Your Instagram or YouTube profile |
Pick one main goal at a time, and change the link when the goal changes.
Common Mistakes With TikTok Bio Links
- Leaving out https://. The link may not be clickable.
- Using a broken or old link. Check it after any website change.
- Sending people to a slow page. Mobile users leave quickly, so keep the landing page fast.
- Not telling people about it. A link no one knows about gets no clicks, so mention it in videos and captions.
- Using too many shorteners. Visitors trust a clear domain more than a random shortened link.
