Influencers widely use social networks to promote their sponsors , sell products, services or share their experiences . Platforms like Instagram or TikTok do not allow links to be inserted in posts, influencers have had to find alternatives to direct their followers towards external sites: a blog, an online store or a YouTube channel for example . Generally speaking, social networks allow a single clickable link in the profile biography . Services like Linktree are then used to centralize links to other pages and all content creator resources .

Limit spam and the distribution of malicious content

The reason given by the platforms would be to limit the distribution of malicious content . By prohibiting direct links, social networks protect users from fraudulent websites (phishing) , dangerous software (spyware, computer viruses) and inappropriate content (violent or explicit images) . This is therefore a security measure assumed and clearly claimed by microblogging platforms.

Keep users on their platform

Social networks are free and the distribution of sponsored content represents their main source of income . It is therefore legitimate for these platforms to want to keep users as long as possible, allow them to Like , Comment , Share and maintain an ecosystem financed entirely by advertising.

To share their activities, content creators usually develop a mini landing page whose URL is available in their profile bio . Remember that this space is the only place authorized by the majority of platforms to insert a clickable link . Often very simple, the mini-web page brings together all the influencer links. Services like Linktree allow you to create this type of landing page in just a few minutes. These pages include the user's name (or nickname) , their photo and a few links.
