What to put on a link in bio page

Start your page with a clear photo or logo, your name, and one sentence on what you do. Right underneath, put your single most important link as a prominent button so people know where to tap first, followed by a short list of secondary links for recent releases, bookings, or latest work.

If you're a musician, DJ, or podcaster, an embedded media player lets people listen right on the page. On Heya, our embed block handles YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify, SoundCloud, Calendly, and Google Maps, and you can drop in a countdown block that ticks down the days, hours, minutes, and seconds to a show or release. Wrap things up at the bottom with a compact row of social icons.

Wording and layout tips that work on phones

Almost everyone clicking from a social profile opens your page inside an in-app phone browser. Keep your button labels under five words and start with an action verb like 'Listen on Spotify' or 'Book a call' so the text doesn't wrap onto multiple lines. Instead of dumping merch, tour dates, and old press links into one long list, break them up with headings or subtle dividers.

On Heya, you can put up to 40 sections on a page, with up to 6 buttons in a buttons block for featured actions and up to 50 links in a links block for deeper archives. Stick to high-contrast colors from a small palette so buttons stay readable in bright sunlight, and always check the layout on your phone to make sure tap targets feel comfortable.

Common link in bio mistakes to avoid

The biggest mistake is giving every link the same visual weight, which makes people read a whole wall of buttons just to pick one. Clear out expired event links and old announcements from the top of your page too, since dead links make an artist or business look inactive, and use a compact social icon bar instead of turning every social network into its own full-width button.

You'll also want to skip heavy images that load slowly on mobile data (Heya automatically resizes uploads to 2048 pixels on the long edge and converts them to WebP). Finally, check if you need built-in analytics, email capture forms, or digital checkout before picking a tool. On Heya, you can link buttons to a Google Form or Tally form for sign-ups and to your checkout or store page for payments, while Linktree, Beacons, Milkshake, and Carrd include built-in tools on specific plans.
