Instagram users can add a link to their profile in addition to their personal information. Users can direct their followers to other social media accounts or content via this link. Until now, Instagram has limited the number of links shared on the profile to one. However, this situation is changing now.
Instagram brings more links to bio
Instagram has announced that it will now offer its users the ability to add a new link. The social media giant will now allow its users to add up to five links to their Instagram profile bios and add a separate icon to link their Facebook account.
Users can add links by editing their Instagram profile in the mobile app. With the new feature offered, people will be able to give titles to each link and sort them as they wish. When a second link is added to the profile, “and 1 other link” will appear next to the first link. When you click on this part, other links added by the person will be visible.
In Instagram, especially the influencers were able to direct their followers to other content by adding Linktree links to their profiles. In this way, users ensured that their Instagram followers were aware of other social media accounts and content.
With the new feature offered by Instagram, it seems that users will not have to use sites such as Linktree. While the new link adding feature is expected to be welcomed by Instagram users, it is a matter of curiosity how sites like Linktree will follow against this situation.
The popular social media platform aims to increase the user experience with the new features it brings. So what do you think about the new linking feature on Instagram? You can share your views with us in the comments section.
