How to add a link in your TikTok bio

To add a link to your TikTok bio, go to your profile, tap Edit profile, and paste your URL into the Website field, then save. If you don’t see a Website field, your account isn’t eligible yet: TikTok shows it depending on account type, region, and account eligibility, so not every account has it.

Add the link, step by step

  1. Open TikTok and tap Profile in the bottom right.
  2. Tap Edit profile.
  3. Look for Website. On some versions it sits under a Links heading with an Add button.
  4. Paste the full URL, including https://, and save.
  5. Go back to your profile and tap the link to make sure it opens the right page.

If there’s no Website field

TikTok doesn’t give every account a clickable website link. Whether you see the field depends on your account type, your region, and TikTok’s own eligibility rules, and those rules change. Business accounts are the most common way people get it, but switching account type changes other things too, so read what TikTok tells you before you switch.

While you wait, use what the Edit profile screen does offer. If it lets you connect Instagram or YouTube, connect them: those show up as icons on your profile, and your Instagram or YouTube profile can carry your page link. Avoid typing a URL into your bio text. It won’t be clickable, and it can read as spam.

What the page should do for a TikTok visitor

Someone tapping your link has just watched a short video and is deciding fast. Give them the thing the video was about, right at the top. If you said “the recipe is in my bio,” the first button should say Recipe, not your name again.

  • One featured link that matches what you’ve been talking about in your videos.
  • The place you post longer work, if you have one, like YouTube or a newsletter.
  • Your shop, if you sell something. Link to the shop you already run.
  • A contact email for brands and collaborations, if you want those messages.

Keep it short. A visitor from TikTok rarely scrolls past the first few buttons. The Creator template on SayHi puts one featured piece at the top and smaller links below, and the link-in-bio examples show the same idea filled in.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Pointing the link at your TikTok profile. Your visitor is already there.
  • Changing what you promote in videos without updating the top link.
  • A page full of equal buttons with no hint which one the video meant.
  • A slow page with large images. Most TikTok taps happen on mobile data.

Questions

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

TikTok only shows the Website field to eligible accounts. Availability depends on account type, region, and account eligibility, so if Edit profile has no Website field, your account doesn’t have it yet. Business accounts are the usual route.

Are links in TikTok captions or comments clickable?

Generally no. A URL typed into a caption or comment shows as plain text, which is why creators send people to the profile link instead.

Should my TikTok link point back to TikTok?

No. Your visitor is already on TikTok. Use the link for the places TikTok can’t take them: your shop, your longer videos, your email.

Can my link-in-bio page sell things?

A SayHi page can link to your shop, but it doesn’t take payments itself. If you sell, keep the checkout on the store you already use and put that link near the top.
