Why This Template?

Linktree charges $5/month for a page of buttons. This does the same thing β€” for free, on your own domain, with no feature gates:

  • Creators & influencers who need one link for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and every other bio field
  • Professionals consolidating their LinkedIn, portfolio, blog, and contact into one shareable URL
  • Brands & businesses running campaigns with a clean, fast link hub
  • Anyone paying for Linktree who'd rather not

"Switched from Linktree and saved $60/year. Same functionality, faster page loads, and I own my domain. Took 10 minutes to set up." β€” Noor Al-Rashid, Content Creator
