How to Add a Link to Your TikTok Bio (2026 Step-by-Step)

To add a link to your TikTok bio, open the app, go to your profile, tap Edit profile, tap the Links (or Website) field, paste your URL, and tap Save. The clickable Website field unlocks once you have a personal account with about 1,000 followers, or immediately if you switch to a Business account. Do it all from the mobile app, not desktop.

Below are the exact steps, what to do if you don't see the Website option, and how to point one bio link at many destinations.

Step 1: Confirm your account can add a link

TikTok doesn't give every account a clickable bio link right away. You currently need one of these:

• A personal account with roughly 1,000 followers (TikTok has adjusted this threshold over time and rolls it out gradually, so the exact number can vary by region and account), or
• A Business account, which unlocks the Website field immediately with no follower requirement.

If you already meet the follower count, skip to Step 3. If you don't, and you want a link now, switch to a Business account in Step 2.

One trade-off to know: Business accounts can only use TikTok's Commercial Sounds library, so some trending songs become unavailable. If music is central to your content, weigh that before switching.

Step 2: Switch to a Business account (only if you need to)

If the Website field isn't available yet, converting to a Business account is the fastest way to unlock it. Here's the path:

1. Tap the Profile icon in the bottom-right corner.
2. Tap the menu (the three lines) in the top-right corner.
3. Tap Settings and privacy.
4. Tap Account.
5. Tap Switch to Business Account.
6. Choose the category that best fits you (creator, retail, education, and so on) and follow the prompts.

The switch is free and reversible. If you don't like it, you can return to a personal account the same way. Some regions may ask for additional business details during registration.

Step 3: Open your profile and tap Edit profile

Now for the part everyone's here for.

1. Tap the Profile icon in the bottom-right corner to open your profile.
2. Tap Edit profile, the button just below your bio.

This screen is where you control your name, username, bio text, photo, and links.

Step 4: Add your website link

1. On the Edit profile screen, tap the Links section (on some versions it's labeled Website directly).
2. Tap the Website field.
3. Type or paste your full URL, including the https:// prefix, for example https://yourstore.com. Links without https:// often won't save or won't be clickable.
4. Tap Save.

That's it. Go back to your profile and you should see a clickable link sitting under your bio text. Tap it yourself to confirm it opens the right page.

If TikTok also shows fields for Instagram, YouTube, or other platforms in the Links section, those are separate social links, not your website. Fill them in if you like, but your main destination goes in the Website field.

Step 5: Add ONE link but point it at many destinations

TikTok only gives you a single clickable Website field. If you want to send people to your shop, your latest video, your newsletter, and your other socials, you can't add four links, but you can add one link that leads to all of them.

The workaround is a link-in-bio page: a single, simple landing page that lists every destination you care about. You put that one page's URL in your TikTok Website field, and visitors choose where to go from there.

A tool like OneBio link-in-bio gives you one clean URL to drop into your bio while housing all your links behind it. You update the page whenever your priorities change, and your TikTok bio link never has to change again. This is the standard approach creators, small shops, and businesses use to get around TikTok's one-link limit.

Once your link-in-bio page is live, just repeat Step 4 and paste that page's URL into the Website field.

Troubleshooting: What to do if you can't add a link

If there's no Website field on your Edit profile screen, run through this checklist:

• Are you on the mobile app? The bio link feature is rarely available on desktop. Always use the phone or tablet app.
• Update the app. An outdated version may hide newer profile options.
• Check your account type and followers. No 1,000 followers and no Business account means no clickable field yet (see Steps 1 and 2).
• Log out and back in to force your profile settings to refresh.
• In the meantime, you can type your URL as plain text in your bio description. It won't be clickable, but people can still read and copy it.

FAQ

Why can't I add a link to my TikTok bio?

Almost always because your account hasn't unlocked the Website field yet. You need a personal account with around 1,000 followers, or a Business account. You also need to be on the mobile app, since the option rarely appears on desktop.

Do I need a Business account to add a link?

Not necessarily. A personal account with enough followers (about 1,000) can add a website link too. A Business account is simply the fastest route, because it unlocks the Website field right away regardless of follower count. The trade-off is that Business accounts are limited to TikTok's Commercial Sounds music library.

How many links can I put in my TikTok bio?

One clickable Website link. To send people to multiple places, use a link-in-bio page as that single link. It acts as a menu that lists all your destinations, so one URL effectively covers your shop, socials, videos, and anything else.

Does TikTok show how many clicks my bio link gets?

Your personal profile doesn't show detailed bio link click stats. Business accounts get access to more analytics, but the cleanest way to track clicks is through a link-in-bio page or link tool, which reports exactly how many people tapped each destination.

Can I add a link on TikTok desktop?

Usually not. The Website field is a mobile app feature and is rarely available in the desktop web version. Add or edit your link from your phone, then it will display everywhere.

Do I have to include https:// in my link?

Yes, include the full web address with the https:// prefix. Links entered without it often fail to save or don't render as clickable. Paste the complete URL to be safe.

Quick recap

Adding a link to your TikTok bio comes down to unlocking the Website field (1,000 followers or a Business account), then going Profile > Edit profile > Links > Website, pasting your full URL, and tapping Save, all from the mobile app. And since TikTok caps you at one clickable link, a link-in-bio page is how you turn that single slot into a doorway to everything you want people to see.
