How to put a link in bio on TikTok
If you are wondering if it is possible to put a link on TikTok , you should know that all users with a personal account have the possibility to link their Instagram account and their YouTube channel , which will be automatically shown in the TikTok profile, next to the bio .
To add the link to Instagram and YouTube on TikTok, start the app of the famous social network for Android devices (also available on alternative stores , for devices without Google services) and iPhone / iPad and, if you haven’t already done so, Log in to your account.
Now, click on the Profile item located in the bottom menu and, in the new screen displayed, tap on the Edit profile button . At this point, if you want to add the link of your Instagram profile, locate the Social section , tap on the Add Instagram option and connect your account, entering the credentials in the Phone number, username or email and Password fields and pressing on the Sign in button . To find out more, I leave you to my guide on how to put Instagram on TikTok .
Similarly, by selecting the Add YouTube option , you can also link your YouTube channel. If, on the other hand, you are wondering how to put the Twitch link on TikTok , I am sorry to tell you that, at least at the time of writing this guide, there are no options available to add social channels other than Instagram and YouTube .
Having said that, you should know that TikTok allows users who have a Business account with at least 1,000 followers (in this regard, my guide on how to have more followers on TikTok may be useful ), to insert any link, including that of Twitch , which will be shown under the profile bio.
In this case, if you have the number of followers necessary to be able to put a link in bio on TikTok but you have a personal account, first press on the Profile item located in the bottom menu, tap the ☰ button, at the top right, and select the Settings and privacy option from the opened menu.
In the new screen displayed, press on the Account Management item and, in the Account Control section , tap on the Switch to Business account option . Then press the Next button , select the category that best represents your account ( Arts and crafts , Electronics , Gaming , Personal blog , Travel and tourism , Other etc.) and press the Next button again .
If you wish, enter your email address in the appropriate field (this will also be shown as a link in your profile) and tap the Next and Maybe Later buttons to switch from a personal account to a corporate account.
At this point, you are able to add a custom link on your profile. To do this, access the Profile section , press the Edit Profile button , locate the Website item and tap the Add Website option .
Then enter the link of your interest in the appropriate field and tap the Save button , at the top right, to save the changes and show the newly added link in your profile screen.
In case of second thoughts, it will be useful to know that you can switch from a Business account to a personal account at any time, by accessing the Account Management section again and selecting the Switch to Personal account item . Keep in mind, however, that by doing so the link and any email address you added previously will no longer be shown on your profile.
Finally, if you haven’t yet reached the number of followers needed to add a URL on TikTok or don’t want to switch to a Business account, you can always manually insert a link in your bio by selecting the Edit Profile and Bio options . Keep in mind, however, that the URL will be simply textual, that is, it will not be opened automatically by clicking on it.
Alternatively, still using a Business account, you can consider sponsoring your website on TikTok, with the possibility of adding its link as well. If so, my guide on how to sponsor on TikTok might be helpful .
How to put a link on a TikTok video
If your intention is to put a link on a TikTok video , I am sorry to inform you that, at least at the time of writing this guide, there is no option available to do so. Furthermore, although it is possible to add a URL in the description of a video (or a series of photos ), this will not be shown as a link but as simple text.
For information, I point out that the only solution to add a link in the videos is the one relating to the option dedicated to TikTok minigames which, in fact, allows you to add a link to one or more games among those available on the famous Chinese social network.
If you are interested in this feature, start TikTok, create a new video and tap the Next button . Once this is done, in the Publish screen , click on the Add link item , select the Minigame option from the opened menu and tap the Select button related to the game you want to link in your video.
Then repeat the procedure for any other games of your interest and press the Publish button to publish the video with the links to the previously selected games.
How to put TikTok links on Instagram
How do you say? Would you like to put TikTok links on Instagram ? In this case, start the app of the famous photographic social network for Android devices (also available on alternative stores ) and iPhone / iPad and, if you haven’t already done so, log in to your account .
At this point, tap on the little man icon , at the bottom right, press the Edit profile button and, in the new screen displayed, select the Add link option . Once this is done, tap on Add external link and enter the URL of your TikTok account in the URL field .
If you wish, you can also assign a name to the link (eg TikTok ) by entering it in the Title field : please note, however, that this option does not allow you to show the word or phrase in question instead of the URL entered. Then press on the Finish item , at the top right, to save the changes and connect Instagram to TikTok .
If you prefer to proceed from a computer , I am sorry to tell you that by accessing the Edit profile section of your account, it is not possible to add a new link and you will necessarily have to do it through the app for smartphones and tablets.
