Migrate From Linktree to UniLink (Move Your Links and Grow Your Revenue)


Migrate From Linktree to UniLink (Move Your Links and Grow Your Revenue)

Switch from Linktree to UniLink in under an hour and unlock e-commerce, bookings, and email automation your old platform could never offer.

  • Linktree limits you to basic link lists with no native selling, booking, or email automation — UniLink replaces all three.
  • Migration takes five simple steps: export your links, recreate them in UniLink, connect your domain, update your social bios, and optionally redirect your old profile.
  • UniLink's free plan includes a custom domain — something Linktree charges for on paid tiers.

Linktree built the link-in-bio category, but it has not kept pace with what creators and businesses actually need today. If you have ever wanted to sell a digital product, take a booking, or grow an email list directly from your bio page, you have probably hit Linktree's ceiling. UniLink was built to remove that ceiling — giving you a single page that markets, sells, and grows your audience without sending visitors off to a separate storefront.

What This Migration Does

Moving from Linktree to UniLink replaces a static list of links with a fully interactive business page. Instead of showing visitors a stack of identical buttons, you can display product cards with prices, a booking calendar, an email capture form, and your social feed — all on one page at unil.ink/yourname or your own custom domain. The visual upgrade alone tends to increase click-through rates, but the bigger win is that visitors can complete transactions without ever leaving your page.

The migration also gives you access to analytics that Linktree reserves for its highest-paid tier. UniLink tracks individual link clicks, geographic data, device breakdown, and revenue attribution out of the box. You can see exactly which content drives conversions, which lets you optimize your page with real data rather than guesswork. These insights are available on every UniLink plan, including the free tier.

Finally, migrating means you gain full design control. Linktree's customization is limited to color palettes and button shapes. UniLink lets you apply custom CSS, choose from dozens of block types (video embeds, countdown timers, testimonial sliders, product grids), and create a page that actually reflects your brand. The switch is not just about features — it is about owning a professional web presence instead of renting a template.

How to Get Started

  1. Create a UniLink account. Go to unilink.us and sign up with your email. The free plan is fully functional and includes a custom domain connection — no credit card required to start.
  2. Choose your username. Your public page will live at unil.ink/yourname. Pick the same handle you use on Linktree if it is available, so your existing audience recognizes the URL when you update your bios.
  3. Open your Linktree profile in one browser tab. You will use it as a reference while rebuilding in UniLink. There is no official Linktree export, so keep the page visible to copy link titles and URLs accurately.
  4. Familiarize yourself with the UniLink dashboard. Log in at app.unilink.us and click through the block types available in the editor. Spend five minutes exploring so you know what is possible before you start building.
  5. Set your profile basics. Upload your profile photo, write your display name, and add a short bio. Match what you have on Linktree so returning visitors feel at home immediately.

How to Complete the Migration

  1. Recreate your links as blocks. For each link on your Linktree, add a Button or Link block in UniLink. Paste in the URL and title. If you have more than ten links, consider grouping them into sections using UniLink's Header blocks to improve readability.
  2. Add monetization blocks. This is the upgrade Linktree cannot offer. Add a Product block for any digital or physical items you sell, a Booking block if you take appointments, and a Subscription block if you have a membership or newsletter. These blocks connect to Stripe directly from the UniLink dashboard.
  3. Connect a custom domain. In the UniLink dashboard, go to Settings → Custom Domain and enter your domain. Update your DNS records as instructed (a CNAME pointing to unil.ink). Custom domains are free on all plans — you pay only the annual domain registration fee to your registrar.
  4. Update your social media bios. Change the link in your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter/X, and any other bio fields from your Linktree URL to your new UniLink address. This is the most important step — it redirects all your incoming traffic to the new page.
  5. Handle your old Linktree profile. You cannot create a server-side redirect from Linktree, but you can add a single link at the top of your Linktree page that says "I've moved — visit my new page" with your UniLink URL. Leave this in place for 30 days to catch any audience members who visit the old link directly.

Tip: Before updating your social bios, do a soft launch by sharing your new UniLink URL in an Instagram Story or tweet. Ask your audience for feedback and fix any layout issues before the full switchover. This gives you a real-world test without risking your main traffic.

Get the Most Out of UniLink After Migrating

Once your links are live, go beyond replication and start using blocks that Linktree simply does not have. Add a Video block to embed your latest YouTube video or a Reel directly on your bio page — visitors stay longer when there is something to watch, and longer sessions correlate with higher conversion rates on your product and booking blocks.

Connect UniLink to Zapier or Klaviyo to automate what happens after someone fills out your email form. You can trigger a welcome sequence, tag subscribers by interest, or send a discount code automatically — all without touching anything manually. This turns your bio page into a lead generation engine that works while you sleep.

Use UniLink's analytics dashboard to run simple A/B tests manually. Try a different headline for your top product block one week, swap the button color the next, and compare click rates. Because analytics update in real time, you can make data-driven decisions quickly instead of waiting for monthly reports.

If you are on the Business plan ($49/mo), take advantage of team access to let a manager or virtual assistant update your page without sharing your account credentials. You can also use the API to sync your product catalog automatically if you run a Shopify store, eliminating the need to manually update prices and availability on your UniLink page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I keep my Linktree account active while I set up UniLink?

Yes. You can build and test your UniLink page without touching your Linktree profile. Only update your social bio links when your UniLink page is ready. Running both simultaneously during the transition is the safest approach.

Will I lose my Linktree analytics history?

Linktree does not allow you to export historical analytics data. Your old data stays in Linktree's dashboard as long as your account is active. UniLink starts tracking from the moment your page goes live, so there is no historical gap — just a clean start with better data going forward.

Does UniLink's free plan have any link limits?

No. UniLink's free plan supports unlimited links and blocks. You are not capped on the number of buttons, products, or sections you can add to your page.

What happens to my Linktree URL after I switch?

Your Linktree URL (linktr.ee/yourname) remains active as long as your Linktree account exists. Add a "moved" link at the top of your Linktree page to redirect visitors. You can eventually delete the Linktree account or leave it as a redirect post indefinitely.

Can I migrate if I currently pay for Linktree Pro?

Absolutely. Cancel your Linktree subscription after your UniLink page is live and you have updated all your bio links. Linktree charges monthly, so you can time the cancellation to avoid double billing. Everything Linktree Pro offered is available on UniLink's Starter plan ($9/mo) or free tier.
