How to add a link to your LinkedIn profile

To add a link to your LinkedIn profile, open your profile, tap the edit pencil on your intro section, scroll to the website or links area, paste your URL, and save. It then shows up as a tappable link near the top of your profile. The whole thing takes under a minute.

The snag is that LinkedIn only gives you a little room, so if you have more than one thing to share you run out fast. Below is the quick version, then the smarter version for when one link is not enough.

The short answer

LinkedIn lets you add links from the edit view of your intro or contact info. The exact wording moves around as LinkedIn updates the app, but the general path has stayed the same for years: you open your profile, you edit it, and there is a spot for a website or a link.

You paste a full URL (it usually needs the https:// part, though LinkedIn often adds that for you), give it a short label, and save. Done.

How to add a link to your LinkedIn profile, step by step

1. Open your profile. Tap your photo or your name to land on your own page. On desktop, click Me in the top bar, then View Profile.
2. Open the edit view. Tap the pencil icon on your intro section (the block with your name, headline, and photo). On some versions this is where the featured website and links live; on others you find them under Contact info.
3. Find the links field. Look for a field labeled something like Website, Link, or Add link. Newer versions currently let creators add a link that sits right under the headline.
4. Paste your URL. Drop in the address you want people to reach. If LinkedIn complains, make sure it starts with https:// and has no stray spaces.
5. Add a label. If you get a title or link-text option, use it. A clear label like "Portfolio" or "Book a call" gets more clicks than a raw web address.
6. Save. Tap Save or Done, then head back to your profile and click your own link to confirm it goes where you expect.

That is it. The link now sits on your profile for anyone who visits.

Where LinkedIn lets you put links

There are a few spots, and it helps to know all of them:

• The intro or featured link. The main one. Depending on your account and the current app version, a link can appear right under your headline. This is what most people mean by a LinkedIn link in bio.
• Contact info. You can add one or more websites here with a type label like Personal, Company, or Portfolio. Reliable, but people have to open Contact info to find them.
• The Featured section. You can pin links, posts, and media as cards further down your profile. Good for showcasing work, though it sits below the fold.
• The About section. You can paste a URL in your summary text, but it usually shows as plain text people have to copy, not a clean tappable button.

The intro and Contact info links are the ones that count, because they are always there. But they have a real limit, which brings us to the actual problem.

One link is never enough

Here is what happens to almost everyone. You add your portfolio. Then you want your newsletter up there too. Then a link to book a call. Then your latest talk, your company page, and a lead magnet.

LinkedIn gives you room for a handful of links at most, and a long list of raw URLs in your About section looks messy and gets skipped. You end up swapping the one prominent link depending on what you are pushing this month, and last month's link is now stale for everyone who saw it.

The fix is to make your LinkedIn link point at one page that holds all your other links. That page is called a link in bio.

Use one link that holds all your links

A link-in-bio page is a single tidy page (like isall.me/yourname) that lists everything you want people to reach: portfolio, newsletter, booking page, latest talk, your other socials, a way to tip or pay you. You put that one link on your LinkedIn profile and never touch it again. When something changes, you update the page, not your profile.

The good part is you can build one free and have it live in about a minute.

1. Claim your name. Go to isall.me, pick a username, and your page is live at isall.me/yourname the moment you claim it. Free, no card.
2. Add your links. Portfolio, booking page, newsletter, case studies, whatever matters. Drag to reorder so the important stuff sits up top.
3. Drop in a video. Paste a YouTube or Vimeo URL and it plays right on the page, so a hiring manager or client can watch your talk without leaving. Plain link lists cannot do this.
4. Connect your other profiles. Add your site, GitHub, Substack, and the rest with the right icons detected for you.
5. Make it look like you. Pick a theme, then change colors, fonts, background, and button shapes so it reads as professional instead of a stock template.
6. Put it on your LinkedIn profile. Copy your isall.me/yourname link and paste it into the link or website field using the steps above.

Now the single link LinkedIn gives you quietly does the work of ten.

A quick note on cost

A link-in-bio page should be free to actually use, not a demo that paywalls the basics. On isall.me the free plan gives you unlimited links, native video that plays on the page, real customization, basic analytics, and a free QR code. There is a 9 percent platform fee only if you collect tips or sell a product.

If you want the extras, Pro is 24 dollars for the whole year, roughly 2 dollars a month. That gets you a custom domain, full customization, advanced analytics, no badge, and it drops the platform fee on tips and sales to zero. Worth knowing, because a lot of rival tools charge 5 to 24 dollars every month for the same kind of thing.

FAQ

Why is my LinkedIn link not clickable? Links are only tappable when they sit in a proper link or website field, like your intro link or Contact info. A URL typed into your About or headline text usually shows as plain text. Move it into a dedicated link field and it should turn clickable.

How many links can I add to my LinkedIn profile? LinkedIn currently allows a small number of links across your intro and Contact info, and the exact count changes over time. To get around the limit, point one link at a link-in-bio page that can hold as many as you want.

Do I need LinkedIn Premium to add a link? No. Any account can add a website or link from the edit view. Premium and creator tools add a few extras, but the basic profile link works on free accounts too.

Can I track how many people click my link? LinkedIn gives you limited insight into profile link clicks. If you route through a link-in-bio page like isall.me, you get basic analytics on the free plan showing which links people actually tap.
