Alternatives to Linktree
Linktree alternatives with more room.
Most Linktree alternatives are other link-in-bio tools, and if a tidier list of links is all that’s wanted, several below do that job well. The more interesting question is whether the bio link deserves promotion from a menu to a destination.
A list of links sends every visitor one click further away; a page puts the work itself behind the bio — which is where Nippy comes in, hosting an actual page built from your files: a CV that opens in the browser, photo folders served as galleries with a lightbox, a menu, a small site, at yours.nippy.site or a custom domain on paid plans. For a designed one-pager assembled from templates, Carrd remains the budget benchmark, with three free one-page sites and cheap annual tiers. Bio Sites by Squarespace covers the free, polished link-list job from a major brand, Beacons aims at creators who want commerce and AI blocks stacked into the bio, and Lnk.Bio undercuts subscriptions with low one-time pricing options.
The honest sort: links only — a link-in-bio tool; a designed page — a builder; your actual work, files and all — a host.

Why people look for a Linktree alternative
- A link list adds a click between visitors and the actual work
- Free tiers carry the platform’s branding on your bio page
- The address is linktr.ee/yourname, not an address of your own
- Content lives elsewhere — the bio page itself holds nothing
The alternatives
The honest shortlist.

Nippy
that’s usPutting the work itself behind the bio link
Nippy hosts a real page from files you already have: a CV recruiters open in the browser, a portfolio whose image folders become galleries, a menu, a multi-page site. It lives at yours.nippy.site — or your own domain on paid plans — with the content on the page, links wherever you put them, and no platform styling around it.
Pros
- Visitors land on content, not a menu of further clicks
- Your own address and branding (small banner on the free plan)
- Galleries, PDFs and full sites — things link lists can’t hold
Cons
- No drag-and-drop link manager — you edit a page, not toggle rows
- No built-in tip jars or storefront blocks
- 2
Carrd
A designed one-pager at pocket-money prices
Build a polished one-page site from templates in the browser: three free one-page sites, paid tiers billed annually at low prices. More page than a link list, less work than a full site.
Pros
- Beautiful one-pagers without code
- Free tier of three sites; very cheap paid tiers
Cons
- One page is the ceiling
- Paid billing is annual-only

Bio Sites by Squarespace
A free, polished link page from a major brand
Squarespace’s link-in-bio product: clean templates, quick setup, free to start, with payments and deeper customisation on paid tiers. A safe pick for a good-looking list.
Pros
- Free and genuinely polished
- Squarespace-grade templates
Cons
- Still a link list, not a page of your content
- Deeper features push toward the Squarespace ecosystem
- 4
Beacons
Creators stacking commerce into the bio
A creator-business take on link-in-bio: storefront blocks, email capture, media kits and AI tools layered onto the link page, with a workable free tier. Powerful if selling through the bio is the point; busy if it isn’t.
Pros
- Commerce, email and media-kit blocks built in
- Capable free tier for creators starting out
Cons
- Feature-dense — more dashboard than a simple list needs
- The page is still Beacons-flavoured, not yours
- 5
Lnk.Bio
A link list without a subscription
A long-running, no-frills link-in-bio tool whose hook is pricing: a usable free tier and low one-time payment options instead of monthly plans. Less polish, more pragmatism.
Pros
- One-time pricing options undercut subscriptions
- Simple and quick
Cons
- Plainer look than the big names
- Still a list of links at heart
How to choose
- You have actual work to show — a CV, portfolio, gallery → host a real page
- You want a designed page and enjoy tinkering → Carrd
- You just need a clean list, free → Bio Sites; without subscriptions → Lnk.Bio
- You sell through your bio → Beacons’ commerce blocks earn their complexity

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What’s the best free Linktree alternative?
For another link list: Bio Sites by Squarespace is free and polished, and Lnk.Bio is free with cheap one-time upgrades. For a page with your actual work on it, Nippy’s free plan hosts one site at a your-name.nippy.site address.
Should my bio link be a list or a page?
If visitors come to choose between destinations — podcast, shop, socials — a list serves them. If they come to see you — work, CV, photos — a page serves them better, with links included where useful.
Can I use my own domain?
On Nippy, yes — any paid plan, one CNAME record, automatic HTTPS. Several link-in-bio tools offer custom domains on their paid tiers too; check the current plan tables.
I’m job-hunting — which alternative fits?
A hosted page beats a link list in applications: hire-me.nippy.site opening straight onto a CV (with work samples alongside) reads stronger than a menu of links and never expires mid-search.
