The Ultimate Tool to Dominate Instagram Linking in The Bio

The use of social media marketing has been growing at an exponential pace, with influencer & affiliate marketing becoming such a powerful tool for brands who want to target specific demography. For instance, just by scowling through your Instagram feed, you are likely to have seen, or even shopped through, an affiliate link.

When influencers present products and invite you to “swipe up for link,” they are directing you to an affiliate link. When you end up purchasing following this link, the influencer will get a commission for the reference made to the brand.

Why you will need a tool like LinkFolio?

So, say you want to monetize your Instagram account and are considering which brands to work with and how best to manage these brands promotions due to the limitations Instagram imposes to your account. Which limitations you might be asking? It’s so frustrating that Instagram only offers one link option in your profile and that the use of URLs in the actual post is not available.

Say you represent 5 brands on your account, and each brand wants you to provide a link to their storefront, this becomes a problem because you can only put one link on to these storefronts on your Insta bio.

Putting 5 links on your social bio is a messy process as this might confuse your followers so most influencers tend to put one link at a time and this can limit revenue streams, or create a micro webpage that contains all your links and this is how the Instagram tool LinkFolio comes into the picture.
