Instead of relying on third-party hosted bio-link platforms, you retain complete ownership of your traffic. Also, every button on your bio page routes through a tracked short link, keeping all your click data and analytics seamlessly centralized in your WordPress dashboard. ***Note:*** *Before you start, ensure to*[***install & activate BetterLinks***](https://betterlinks.io/docs/install-and-activate-betterlinks/) *and* [***BetterLinks PRO***](https://betterlinks.io/docs/install-betterlinks-pro/) *on your WordPress website.* ## Step 1: Open the Bio Links Dashboard Navigate to **BetterLinks → Bio Links** from your WordPress dashboard. ![Bio Links menu in the BetterLinks WordPress dashboard](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-01-bio-links-menu-1.png) The Bio Links dashboard has two tabs: **'Bio Links'**, where your pages are listed, and **'Analytics'**, where you track their performance. Click on the **'Add bio'** button to get started. ![Empty Bio Links dashboard in BetterLinks with the Add bio button highlighted](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-02-bio-links-empty-1.png) This opens the **full-screen builder** with a live phone preview on the right, your page takes shape as you type. ![Opening the Bio Links builder in BetterLinks](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-03-open-builder-1.gif) ## Step 2: Build Your Bio Page **Build Your Bio Page** Crafting your custom bio link page takes just a few clicks inside WordPress. Easily design a sleek, responsive landing page that features your top links, social profiles, and essential content, all perfectly styled to match your brand. ### Set Up Your Profile From the **'Profile'** section, upload your **avatar** from the Media Library, then enter your **name** and a short **bio** that appears under it. This is also where you set your page's **Handle**, the last part of your bio page URL (e.g. `yoursite.com/go/julia`). ![Filling in the profile section of a BetterLinks bio page with an avatar from the Media Library](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-04-profile-avatar-1.gif) ### Add Social Icons & Link Buttons Head to the **'Icons'** section and click **'+ Add Icon'** to add your social channels, pick the platform and paste your profile URL. Then, from **'Links & Footer'**, click **'+ Add link'** to create the main buttons of your page, each with a label and destination URL. Notice the **'Track'** toggle on every icon and link: when enabled, BetterLinks quietly creates a short link behind that button, so every click shows up in your analytics. Footer links are simple text links at the bottom of the page and are never tracked. ![Adding a social icon and a tracked link button to a BetterLinks bio page](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-05-icons-links-1.gif) ### Choose a Layout The **'Layout'** section offers **eight page structures**, Classic, Hero, Cover, Spotlight, Wave, Pro, Card and Frame. Click through them and watch the phone preview switch instantly. ![Choosing a layout for a BetterLinks bio page with the live phone preview](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-06-choose-layout-1.gif) ### Style Your Page From **'Styles'**, pick a ready **theme preset** or design your own: choose from 28 Google fonts, customize button style, animation, and shape, and set a **solid, gradient, or image background**. ![Styling a BetterLinks bio page with theme presets and a gradient background](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-07-styles-1.png) ### Fine-Tune Your SEO Finally, the **'SEO'** section controls how your page appears in search results and social shares, set a **meta title**, **meta description**, and a **social share image**. ![SEO settings for a BetterLinks bio page with meta title and description](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-08-seo-1.png) ## Step 3: Publish & Share Your Bio Page When the preview looks right, hit **'Publish'**. The top bar now shows **'Copy URL'** and **'Open live link'** — your page is live at `yoursite.com/go/your-handle`. ![How to Use Bio Links in WordPress with BetterLinks?](https://betterlinks.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/betterlinks-link-in-bio-09-publish-1.gif) ## Final Outcome Copy the URL and paste it into your Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube bio.
