Free Guide

Why pay monthly for a page that's just… a list of links?

LinkTree, Beacons, Stan Store, Carrd — they all do the same thing: host a single page with your photo, bio, and a stack of buttons. They charge $5–$24 every month. Forever. For something you can build in an afternoon and host for free.

This guide shows you how. It's free. It's short. And the page you end up with is yours.

What you actually get

Side-by-side: building your own vs. paying for a service.

Build your own

Own it forever

  • Your own analytics. Real Google Analytics — see who clicks what, where they came from, what device, time of day.
  • Unlimited links. No "Pro tier" upsell to add a 6th button.
  • Full control of design. Any colors, any font, any layout. No watermarks. No "Powered by…" footer.
  • Lives on your domain. links.yourname.com instead of linktr.ee/yourname.
  • $0–$1/mo to host. Free on Netlify; ~$12/year for a custom domain if you want one.
  • Edit it yourself. Change a link in 30 seconds without learning a platform's UI.

A link-in-bio page is a small piece of a bigger picture. Book a free 30-minute call — no obligation — and we'll figure out what your online presence should actually look like. From there, the two paid options are:

  • $3,500 7-Day Online Liftoff — if you decide you want a real small-business site (not just a link page), I build it in 7 days. 30-day unconditional money-back guarantee.
  • $5,000 30-Day Owner Bootcamp — everything in the Liftoff plus 30 days of one-on-one training so you can run, update, and grow the site yourself with AI.
