Threads

How to add links to your Threads profile

Threads is the exception to the link-in-bio problem. Since May 2025 it allows up to five profile links, with click counts — so for a lot of people the platform already solved this.

What this platform actually allows

Threads allows up to five links on a profile, and shows click performance for each. It is not a single-link platform.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open your Threads profile

    Tap the profile icon in the bottom bar.

  2. 2

    Tap Edit profile

    Below your name and bio.

  3. 3

    Open the Links section

    This is where the five slots live.

  4. 4

    Add a link and a label

    The label is what people read, so write what it does rather than the raw domain.

  5. 5

    Repeat up to five, then save

    Order them deliberately — the first slot gets far more taps than the fifth.

Platform interfaces change without notice. If a menu name here does not match what you see, the platform moved it — the sequence is usually still the same.

When you do not need a link in bio here

If you have five or fewer destinations, use the native links and skip the link page entirely. It is faster for the visitor and Threads gives you click stats anyway. A link page earns its place here only when you have more than five destinations, want one URL shared across several platforms, or want deeper analytics than Threads exposes.

Frequently asked questions

How many links can I add on Threads?

Five, since the May 2025 update. Threads also shows how each one performs.

Do I still need a link in bio tool for Threads?

Often not. If five slots cover you, use them — we would rather say that than pretend the platform still has a problem it fixed.

Does my Instagram bio link carry over to Threads?

No. They are separate profile fields even though the accounts are connected, so set the links on Threads yourself.

When is a link page still better?

More than five destinations, one URL you want to reuse across every platform, or wanting referrer and device data that Threads does not show.

More than five destinations?

That is when one link beats five. Free forever.
