Link in Bio, But Make It Money: 7 Underused Liinks Features That Quietly Boost Your Revenue
Your bio link is like that friend who always shows up but never asks for credit.
It’s there for every launch, every new offer, every “link in bio” caption. But while you’re busy obsessing over content, captions, and conversions, your bio link is quietly… just sitting there.
It doesn’t have to.
With Liinks, that tiny URL can pull a lot more weight—especially if you lean on a few features most creators barely touch. These aren’t the flashy, obvious things like “add your website” or “change your background color.” We’re talking about the subtle, almost sneaky settings that help your page behave less like a static menu and more like a revenue assistant.
If you’ve already dialed in the basics—offers, design, CTAs, all that good stuff—this post is about squeezing extra dollars out of the same traffic you’re already getting.
Why Your Bio Link Is Probably Under-earning
You’re already doing the hard part:
- Creating content that gets people to your profile
- Earning the click on your bio link
- Having actual things to sell (products, services, memberships, templates, etc.)
Where most creators leak revenue is the middle of that journey:
- People land on your page and don’t know what to click first
- Your best offer is buried under five “kinda relevant” links
- Your page looks fine, but it doesn’t guide anyone toward a purchase

This post is about the tweaks—the underused Liinks features that quietly nudge more of your visitors toward the “buy” side of the house.
1. Priority Positioning: Pin Your Money Links Where Eyes Actually Go
Most people treat their link-in-bio like a chronological scrapbook:
New offer? Toss it on top. Old offer? Let it slide down.
The problem? Your highest-revenue links end up playing musical chairs.
With Liinks, you can:
- Pin key links to the top so they never move
- Reorder links in seconds without breaking URLs
- Use a “hero” link (your #1 action) that stands out visually
How to use this to make more money
-
Pick your money makers. Usually:
- Main product or service
- Current promo or launch
- Email list opt-in that leads into your main offer
-
Pin them to the top of your Liinks page.
-
Demote the rest into:
- A “More from me” section
- A lower priority group
-
Match your content to your top link. If 70% of your content talks about Offer A, Offer A should be the first thing they see.

2. Design Tweaks That Make Your Offers Look Premium
People absolutely judge your offer by how your page looks.
If your link-in-bio feels like a default template, it’s harder for your $97 course or $500 service to feel worth it.
Liinks gives you flexible design controls that most users barely touch:
- Custom fonts & color palettes that match your brand
- Button shapes and sizes that make key CTAs pop
- Section dividers that make your page feel like a mini-website, not a link dump
Revenue-focused design moves
- One accent color = one main action. Use your boldest color only on your primary “money link” button.
- Use contrast for clarity. High-contrast text and buttons reduce friction and confusion.
- Visual hierarchy. Make your main offer:
- Bigger
- Brighter
- Closer to the top

3. Context Blocks: Add Just Enough Copy to Sell the Click
A bare link that says “Shop” is doing the absolute minimum.
A link that says “Shop the presets I used in this Reel (15% off this week)” is doing sales work for you.
With Liinks, you can add:
- Short descriptions under each link
- Section headers that explain what the group is for (e.g., “Start Here,” “For Creators,” “For Brands”)
Used well, this turns your page from a list into a guided experience.
Use micro-copy to answer 3 questions
For each revenue-generating link, your micro-copy should answer:
- What is this? (Course, template, service, shop, etc.)
- Who is it for? (Beginners, busy founders, creators, etc.)
- Why now? (Limited bonus, discount, or clear benefit)
Example:
- Link title: Podcast Pitch Kit
- Description: “Email templates + pitch tracker to help creators land their first 3 podcast features in 30 days.”

4. Social Proof Sections: Bring Your Receipts to the Bio
You already know testimonials help sell. But most creators hide them on a random sales page that only a fraction of their audience sees.
Your Liinks page is often the first place someone checks you out. That’s exactly where you want proof that:
- People buy from you
- People get results
- People enjoy working with you
Ways to add social proof without clutter
-
Create a “Results & Wins” section with:
- 2–3 short testimonial snippets
- Screenshots of DMs (cropped, anonymized if needed)
- A one-line stat like “Over 1,200 students” or “Trusted by 300+ shop owners”
-
Add a “Featured in” row with logos of podcasts, publications, or brands you’ve worked with.
-
Link to a case study or portfolio page if you offer services.
Then, place your primary offer link immediately after that proof section. You’re stacking trust right before the decision.
5. Platform-Specific Variants: Same Page, Different Emphasis
Your TikTok crowd doesn’t always want the same thing as your YouTube subscribers.
Someone coming from:
- A tutorial video might be ready to buy a template
- A storytime post might be more interested in your newsletter
- A viral meme might just want to lurk and follow
Liinks makes it easy to customize what people see, even if they technically land on the “same” page.
How to adapt without creating 10 versions of everything
- Reorder links based on platform focus (e.g., lead with “Shop my presets” for Instagram, “Join my newsletter” for X)
- Use platform-specific CTAs in your content that match what’s featured first on your page
- Create sections that mirror your content themes, like:
- “From my YouTube channel”
- “As seen on TikTok”
This way, your bio link always feels relevant to what someone just watched, which makes them more likely to click again—this time on a revenue link.

6. Data-Driven Pruning: Use Analytics to Retire Dead Links
Nothing kills conversions like a cluttered page.
If you’ve got 15+ links on your Liinks page, there’s a good chance:
- Some of them haven’t been clicked in weeks
- Some are getting clicks but not making sales
- A few are doing the heavy lifting while the rest are just taking up space
This is where analytics stops being “nice to have” and starts being a revenue tool.
A simple monthly check-up
Once a month, pop into your Liinks analytics and:
-
Sort by clicks.
- Anything with near-zero clicks for 30+ days? Archive it or move it down.
-
Check CTR vs. revenue.
- High clicks but low sales? Your sales page or offer might be the issue.
- Low clicks but high sales when people do click? Move that link up.
-
Promote your quiet winners.
- If a link converts well, feature it in your content more often and give it better placement.

7. Seasonal & Launch Modes: Time-Bound Pages That Print During Peaks
Your audience is not equally ready to buy all year round.
There are moments when people are:
- Actively shopping (holidays, back-to-school, Black Friday, etc.)
- Hyper-focused on a specific goal (New Year resets, Q2 planning, summer body, etc.)
- Primed for one specific offer (course launch, product drop, collab, etc.)
Instead of asking your “regular” Liinks page to do everything, use its flexibility to create seasonal or launch-focused layouts.
Seasonal revenue plays
-
Holiday mode:
- Hero link: “Holiday shop / gift bundles”
- Secondary: “Gift cards,” “Last-minute downloads,” “Shipping deadlines”
- Add urgency in your link descriptions (e.g., “Order by Dec 18 for Christmas delivery”).
-
New Year / Q1 mode:
- Hero link: “Goal-setting workshop” or “Planner templates”
- Secondary: “Newsletter,” “Accountability group,” “Coaching consults”

Launch-specific layouts
During a launch, your Liinks page should basically be a hype machine for one thing:
- Hero section: Course / product / membership
- Supporting sections:
- “Who this is for”
- “What’s inside”
- “Bonuses & deadlines”
- “FAQs & policies”
Everything else? Either moved down or temporarily removed. You’re giving people fewer, clearer choices—and that usually means more sales.
Putting It All Together: A Quietly Profitable Liinks Page
Let’s zoom out. A revenue-optimized Liinks page doesn’t look “salesy.” It looks:
- Clean
- Clear
- On-brand
- Obvious about what to click next
Here’s what that might look like in practice:
- Top hero section with your #1 paid offer, visually highlighted.
- Short micro-copy under each key link that sells the click.
- Social proof section that shows real people getting real results.
- Platform-aware ordering so visitors see the most relevant link first.
- Seasonal or launch-specific layouts during important revenue windows.
- Monthly analytics review so you keep what’s working and retire what’s not.
None of these require more followers, more content, or more hours. You’re simply getting more from the traffic you already have.
Quick Recap
Here are the 7 underused Liinks features and tactics that quietly boost revenue:
- Pinned & prioritized links so your money makers never get buried.
- Design controls that make your offers look as premium as they are.
- Contextual micro-copy that sells the click, not just the link.
- Social proof sections that build trust before the buy.
- Platform-aware layouts that feel relevant to where visitors came from.
- Analytics-driven pruning to remove dead weight and promote winners.
- Seasonal and launch-focused pages that match your audience’s buying moments.
Each one is small on its own. Together, they turn your bio link from “helpful directory” into “quiet revenue engine.”
Your Next Move (Because Reading Doesn’t Pay the Bills)
You don’t need to rebuild everything at once. Give yourself 30–45 minutes and:
- Log into Liinks.
- Pin your top 1–2 revenue links to the very top.
- Add or tweak micro-copy under those links so they answer: what, who, why now?
- Remove or demote at least 2 low-performing links.
- Add one tiny slice of social proof right above your main offer.
That’s it. Five small changes.
Will it magically double your income overnight? Probably not. Will it help more of your existing visitors find and buy the thing they already want from you? Very likely.
And once you’ve done that first pass, come back to the blog and layer in more strategy with posts like One Link, Many Offers: How to Turn Your Liinks Page into a Mini Funnel for Every Type of Follower.
Your bio link is already working hard. With a few underused Liinks features on your side, it can finally start getting you paid accordingly.
