How to add a link to your LinkedIn bio

Written by The Chirp Team | Sep 26, 2025 7:00:00 AM

LinkedIn finally caught up.

After years of hiding external links in hard-to-find profile sections, the platform now lets creators, professionals, and job-seekers place a visible, clickable link at the top of their profiles. 

One link. Front and center.

And that small update changes everything.

If LinkedIn is part of your content or career strategy, this new feature gives you a rare opportunity to make sure every person who lands on your profile has somewhere to go next. nd if that somewhere is Chirp,  even work for you.

Here's exactly how to add a link to your LinkedIn bio and why it’s worth doing today.

What’s new? A bio link above the fold

Until recently, LinkedIn’s only link options were tucked away in the “Contact Info” section. They existed, sure, but most visitors never clicked far enough to find them.

Now, LinkedIn lets you place a single, custom URL directly below your profile picture and name. The placement is prime. It shows up before your About section, before your posts, and even before your job title. And it’s visible to everyone, including people who aren’t connected to you.

That’s powerful. 

Because on a platform where attention is short and scrolling is fast, the right link-in-bio page turns passive views into active clicks.

How to add a link to your LinkedIn bio

It takes about 60 seconds to set up. Here’s how.

Step 1: Turn on Creator Mode

Go to your profile, scroll to the “Resources” section, and flip the switch on Creator Mode. This unlocks features like post analytics, follower count, and, most importantly, the top-of-profile bio link.

Step 2: Go to Edit Your Profile

Click “Edit Profile,” and look for the new “Website” field in the intro section.

Step 3: Add Your Link

Paste in your URL. LinkedIn also lets you write a short display title (like “Portfolio,” “Free Download,” or “Shop My Templates”) so visitors know what to expect once they click. Lastly, save your changes.

And, you’re done! You now have a clean, clickable, Chirp link-in-bio placement that travels with you everywhere on the platform.

What kind of link belongs in your LinkedIn?

Most creators and professionals default to their personal website or latest project. But there’s an even better option with Chirp.

Instead of forcing people to guess which single page to send them to, use a dynamic landing page that holds multiple offers. That way, you can link your blog, product download, booking form, and current content in one spot, while also earning passive income on every visit.

Turn a profile view Into passive revenue

Chirp works like a link-in-bio tool, but with built-in earning power.

The page looks clean, loads fast, and organizes your links clearly. Behind the scenes, every visit activates high-quality, audience-matched ads that generate revenue automatically.

Even when a visitor doesn’t buy or subscribe, you still earn from the click.

For creators who want a simple way to earn passive income without cluttering their bio link with sponsors or ad deals, this setup delivers.

Once your link is live, it starts working for you.

Why this matters on LinkedIn

LinkedIn has evolved. With new tools for creators, algorithmic boosts for original content, and a highly engaged user, it’s now one of the most valuable platforms for thought leaders, educators, and niche creators.

With over 1 billion active users worldwide, even a fraction of that attention can create real opportunities.

Your link-in-bio becomes the go-to for anyone curious enough to click, whether they found you through a post, a comment, or a shared connection.

So, now there’s no need to scatter links or wait for people to ask. Just direct them to one place, and let that page do the work.

How other creators are using Chirp

Here are a few smart ways creators are using their LinkedIn link:

Each one uses Chirp to not only host their most important links, but to make money with a bio link every time someone visits.

And if you don’t have a product yet? No problem

Chirp works whether you’re selling something or not. 

You can add social profiles, recent work, or even affiliate links to a book or product you already love. Then let the ads do the rest.

And when you are ready to start selling or sharing your own product:a checklist, a guide, a short tutorial, Chirp gives you a place to host it. 

Forget the website build and tech headaches.

Just upload, publish, and earn.

TLDR: Chirp is free and still pays its rent

Here’s why the best creators are switching their LinkedIn bio link to Chirp:

  • It earns on every click
  • It hosts both paid and free offers
  • It’s optimized for mobile and desktop
  • It updates in seconds, no code required
  • It keeps analytics simple and actionable

Instead of guessing what works, you get clarity. Instead of chasing sponsors, you earn directly from your audience.

Don’t wait. Get the link that works for you

Your profile is already working. It attracts leads, followers, or potential customers.

Now make the most of it.

Set up your Chirp page, place it in your LinkedIn bio, and turn profile views into clicks, downloads, and passive income. Then watch as a single link starts doing more than most funnels.

It takes one minute to add. And the payoff lasts a whole lot longer.
