The ‘One Scroll’ Strategy: Designing a Liinks Page That Sells Before Anyone Ever Clicks

You work hard for every single tap on your bio link.
Someone saw your content, liked your vibe, and cared enough to click. That’s a warm lead, not a random passerby. But what happens next is where most creators quietly lose the sale:
They land on a messy, overwhelming, or just… boring link page.
The fix? A One Scroll strategy: designing your Liinks page so that, within a single smooth scroll, people are:
- Clear on who you are
- Clear on what you offer
- Already sold on their next step—before they ever tap a button
This isn’t about cramming everything above the fold. It’s about treating your Liinks page like a tiny, high-performing sales page that lives inside your bio.
Let’s build that.
Why Your “One Scroll” Matters More Than Your 27 Links
Most people treat their link in bio like a storage unit: everything they’ve ever made goes in there “just in case.”
But your most interested people don’t want a storage unit. They want a path.
A One Scroll strategy matters because:
- Attention is highest at the top. People decide in seconds whether to stay, skim, or leave. Your first scroll is your first impression and your elevator pitch.
- Most people skim, few people explore. If your best offer, clearest CTA, and proof you’re legit are scattered, you’re asking a lot of casual scrollers.
- You’re pre-selling, not just linking. The job of your Liinks page isn’t to say “Here are my links.” It’s to say, “Here’s why this is worth your time and money—now choose your flavor.”
If you’ve ever looked at your analytics and wondered what your CTR actually means, you already know how brutal that first impression can be. (If you want to nerd out on that side, bookmark this one for later: CTR in Real Life: What Your Liinks Click-Through Rate Is Actually Telling You (and What to Fix First)).
Step 1: Decide the One Thing Your Scroll Should Do
Before you touch fonts, colors, or button shapes, answer this:
If your dream follower taps your bio link right now, what’s the one outcome you’d be thrilled about?
Examples:
- Book a discovery call
- Buy your signature digital product
- Join your email list
- Apply for your group program
- Shop your latest collection
Yes, you can have multiple links. No, they shouldn’t all have equal power.
Your One Scroll goal: by the time someone hits the bottom of that first scroll, they should:
- Know what you mainly want them to do
- See why it matters
- Feel safe and curious enough to click
Everything else is there to support that one outcome—not compete with it.
Quick exercise (do this in 3 minutes):
- Open your current Liinks page
- Screenshot the first screen and a half of your page
- Ask yourself: “If someone only saw this and nothing else, would they know what to do—and why?”
If the answer is “uhhh,” perfect. That means you have a lot of easy wins ahead.
Step 2: Build a Hero Section That Actually Sells
Your hero section is the top part of your Liinks page—what people see before they scroll.
You don’t need a giant headline and a TED Talk. You need a clean, confident snapshot:
-
A clear identity line
This is your “I help…” in plain language.Examples:
- “Brand designer turning chaotic ideas into clean visuals.”
- “Fitness coach helping busy moms get strong in 30 minutes a day.”
- “Freelance copywriter for SaaS brands who hate fluff.”
-
A single primary CTA
This is your main button, visually emphasized:- “Book a consult”
- “Start the free mini-course”
- “Shop the new drop”
-
Optional: a tiny credibility hint
Just enough to say “you’re safe here”:- “Trusted by 300+ students”
- “Featured in [Podcast Name] & [Brand]”
- “Over 1,000 orders shipped worldwide”
On Liinks, this usually looks like:
- Profile image or logo
- Short bio line
- One primary button with a standout color
- 1–2 secondary links (less visually loud)
Design tips for your hero:
- Use your highest-contrast button color for the main CTA
- Keep your bio line to 1–2 short sentences
- Avoid “Check out my stuff” energy—make the outcome explicit
Step 3: Turn Your First Scroll into a Mini Sales Page
Okay, now the fun part: what actually lives inside that One Scroll.
Think of the first scroll as a tiny funnel:
- Clarity – Who you are and what you do
- Offer – What they can get right now
- Proof – Why they should trust you
- Path – The next step, made obvious
Here’s a structure you can steal and adapt.
1. The “What I Do in One Glance” Section
Right under your hero, add a short, skimmable section that answers:
“What can I get from you?”
Format it like a mini menu:
- Work with me 1:1 – Strategy, support, and custom plans
- Courses & resources – Self-paced trainings to learn at your own speed
- Free stuff – Start here if you’re new or just curious
Each line can be a subheading with a link underneath, or a short description followed by a button.
This helps people self-sort before they click.

2. Spotlight Your One Main Offer (Not All 14)
Next, give your primary offer its own moment.
Elements to include:
- Tiny headline: “Work with me 1:1” or “The signature program”
- One-sentence outcome: “A 6-week coaching program to help you launch your first paid offer.”
- 1–3 bullet benefits:
- Clear launch plan
- Weekly feedback
- Templates you can reuse
- Primary button: “Apply for coaching” or “Join the program”
You’re not trying to fully explain the offer here—just sell the click.
3. Add Proof Without Overwhelming the Layout
Proof sells before copy does.
On a Liinks page, you don’t have room for a 40-testimonial wall—and you don’t need it.
Instead, use:
- 2–3 short quotes – “I booked 5 new clients in 2 weeks after working with [Name].”
- Screenshot gallery link – A button like “See real client wins” that leads to a Liinks section of screenshots (this is where Screenshots Sell: How to Turn Social Proof into Strategic Liinks Sections That Quietly Close Clients comes in handy).
- Logos or simple text list – “Seen in: [Brand], [Podcast], [Publication].”
4. Repeat Your Main CTA (Yes, Again)
By the time someone reaches the bottom of that first scroll, they should see your primary CTA again.
This can be:
- A repeated primary button
- A “Ready?” section with one simple choice
Example:
Ready when you are.
→ Start with the free training
→ Jump straight into 1:1 support
One of those should be visually highlighted as the main move.
Step 4: Use Visual Hierarchy Like a Pro (Without Being a Designer)
You don’t need design school to make your Liinks page feel intentional. You just need to boss your hierarchy around.
Hierarchy = what looks most important at a glance.
Here’s how to make your One Scroll do the heavy lifting:
-
One primary color, one accent, lots of breathing room.
Use your bold color for the main CTA and section headers. Keep backgrounds clean. -
Size signals priority.
Bigger text = more important. Your name and main offer should not be the same size as a random “Latest YouTube video” link. -
Group related links.
Use sections like “Work with me,” “Learn for free,” “Shop” instead of a flat list. Brains love categories. -
Limit decision fatigue.
Inside that first scroll, aim for:- 1 primary CTA
- 2–4 secondary options
- 1 proof element (testimonials / logos / results)
If someone has to think about which of 12 buttons to click, you’ve lost the magic of that warm, curious moment.
Step 5: Write Micro-Copy That Sells the Scroll
Design gets attention. Words get clicks.
The good news: you don’t need long paragraphs. You need micro-copy—short, specific lines that tell people exactly what they get.
Upgrade these areas:
Your Bio Line
Instead of:
- “Content creator | Coach | Podcast | Shop”
Try:
- “Helping creators turn followers into clients with simple, no-fuss systems.”
Button Labels
Instead of:
- “Newsletter”
- “YouTube”
- “Shop”
Try:
- “Get my weekly client-getting email”
- “Binge the launch strategy playlist”
- “Shop the templates that save you 10+ hours”

Section Descriptions
Under each section title, add one clarifying line:
-
Work with me
“Coaching and services for creators ready to turn this into a real business.” -
Free resources
“Start here if you’re new or not ready to invest yet.” -
Client wins
“Real screenshots, real results, zero stock photos.”
These tiny lines do more selling than a wall of text ever will.
Step 6: Make Your One Scroll Mobile-First (Because… Obviously)
Most of your traffic is coming from mobile. Your One Scroll strategy has to work on a thumb, not just on your laptop.
Run this quick check on your phone:
- Time to clarity: How many seconds until you can answer “What does this person do?”
- Time to offer: How many seconds until you see a clear, outcome-focused CTA?
- Thumb test: Can you comfortably tap your main button with one thumb without zooming or hunting?
- Scroll fatigue: Do you feel like you’re scrolling forever before you see anything that looks like proof or an offer?
If it feels like work, your visitors will bail.
On Liinks, you can quickly rearrange sections and links—use that to put your highest-impact pieces where thumbs will hit them first.
Step 7: Let Data Tell You What to Move (Not Your 2 a.m. Feelings)
Once your One Scroll is set up, resist the urge to rearrange everything every other day.
Instead, do this:
-
Pick one primary metric for the next 30 days:
- Clicks on your main CTA
- Overall CTR from your Liinks page
-
Run tiny experiments:
- Swap the wording on your main button
- Move your proof section slightly higher
- Test a shorter vs. slightly longer offer blurb
-
Change one thing at a time.
If everything moves at once, you’ll never know what actually worked.

Remember: your One Scroll strategy is a living thing. You’re not chiseling a monument; you’re tuning a tiny, powerful page.
A Simple One Scroll Layout You Can Steal
Here’s a plug-and-play outline you can recreate in Liinks:
-
Hero
- Name / brand
- 1–2 line identity statement
- Primary CTA button
-
Mini menu – “What you can do here”
- Work with me → link
- Learn for free → link
- Shop templates → link
-
Offer spotlight
- Tiny headline (your main offer)
- One-sentence promise
- 2–3 bullet benefits
- Primary CTA button (same as hero or closely related)
-
Proof strip
- 2–3 short testimonials or “Seen in” line
- Optional: button to full social proof section
-
Repeat CTA
- “Ready?” line
- One main button, one lower-commitment option
Everything else—podcast, blog, old freebies, random experiments—can live below that One Scroll. Still accessible, just not competing for attention.
Recap: What Your One Scroll Is Really Doing
By the time someone has casually scrolled your Liinks page once, you want them to:
- Understand who you are and who you’re for
- See your main way to help them right now
- Feel reassured that you’re legit
- Have one clear, low-friction next step
If they click nothing but leave thinking, “I get what they do, and I know where to go when I’m ready,” that’s still a win. You’ve moved from “random creator” to “saved for later.”
But with a strong One Scroll strategy, a lot of those people won’t wait. They’ll click.
Your Next Move (Yes, This Is the Part Where I Nudge You)
You don’t need a rebrand. You don’t need a full website. You don’t need to invent a brand-new offer.
You need one intentional scroll.
Here’s your first step—pick one of these and do it in the next 20 minutes:
- Rewrite your bio line to clearly say who you help and how.
- Choose a single primary CTA and make that button visually louder than everything else.
- Add 2–3 tiny proof elements (a short testimonial, a result, a “trusted by X clients” line) into your first scroll.
Then open your Liinks editor and rearrange your sections so that:
- Hero
- Mini menu
- Offer spotlight
- Proof
- Repeat CTA
…all live inside that first smooth thumb swipe.
Your content is already doing the hard work of getting people curious enough to click. Let your One Scroll do the rest.
And if you’re not using Liinks yet and you want a link-in-bio setup that actually looks like your brand (without needing a developer), you know where to start.
