Adding links, what's possible?

Learn how to add links and Link Apps to your Linktree to send visitors to your content or let them engage without leaving your page.

There are two kinds of links you can add to your Linktree! Classic links and Link apps - which we call Link Apps. You can add both by clicking the “Add Link” button in the "Links" tab.

What is a classic link?

A link is a classic Linktree button that takes someone off your Linktree, for example to your website, store, or review page.

How to add a link

  1. In your Linktree Admin, go to Links.

  2. Select + Add.

  3. Paste your URL into the URL field.

  4. Add a Title. This is the text that appears on the button.

What is a Link App?

A Link App is an embedded experience. Visitors can watch a video, stream a podcast, fill out a form, or book an appointment, all without leaving your Linktree.

How to add a Link App

  1. In your Linktree Admin, go to Links.

  2. Select + Add.

  3. Search or browse available Link Apps.

  4. Choose a Link App and follow the prompts to set it up.

💡 Tip: Link Apps are a great way to surface your best content upfront and give visitors a richer experience on your Linktree.

How many links should I have?

There's no single right number, but here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Order matters. Links closer to the top of your Linktree typically get more clicks.

  • Start focused. If you want attention spread evenly across your content, aim for around 7 to 10 key items.

  • If you need more than 10, use headers and layouts to keep your Linktree easy to scan on mobile.
