Do you change my profile bio link on this platform?

No. Postly never edits profile bios. Keep one static Bio URL set manually; Postly ties links to individual posts.

How many links can I attach to a post?

MVP supports one Destination Link per post for clarity and consistent cross-posting.

What’s the best way to highlight my link in the feed?

Lead with a hook, add a clear CTA (e.g., “🔗 Link in bio”), and keep the link short. Consider reinforcing via first comment or pinned comment where supported.

Should I repeat my CTA in comments?

Yes—on platforms that support pinned comments (and for IG first comment via Postly), mirroring the CTA boosts visibility.

Can I preview how the link will appear before publishing?

Yes. Use the Destination Link preview in the composer. If you use short links, confirm the final redirect and UTMs before scheduling.

Does Postly offer analytics for Link-in-Bio?

Not in this scope. This feature focuses purely on publishing; many teams already rely on dedicated bio-link providers for analytics.

Instagram captions are not clickable — how does this help?

We add a “Link in bio” callout and you can include a short link. Users tap your profile → Bio URL → per-post link on your Bio Page.

Instagram — Link-in-Bio (Publishing-Only)

Instagram-first workflow: attach one Destination Link per post, add a “Link in bio” callout and optionally a short link. Keep one static bio URL set manually in your Instagram profile.

How it works

Platform specifics

Caption links render as text; they aren’t clickable.
Use a short link to keep the caption clean and cross-postable.
Add “🔗 Link in bio” early in the caption for better skim visibility.
Optionally mirror the link in the First Comment via Postly.

Best practices

Place the “Link in bio” callout in the first 90–120 characters.
Pin the comment (if your workflow includes manual moderation) to keep visibility high.
Use consistent UTM tags for campaign tracking (if you shorten links, apply UTMs before).

Do / Don’t

Do

Place the “Link in bio” callout in the first 90–120 characters.
Pin the comment (if your workflow includes manual moderation) to keep visibility high.
Use consistent UTM tags for campaign tracking (if you shorten links, apply UTMs before).

Don’t

Don’t rely on long raw URLs; they’re not clickable and reduce readability.
Don’t change your bio URL for each post—keep it static and let the Bio Page route traffic.

Common issues & fixes

Issue: Viewers ask “where’s the link?”
Fix: Move “🔗 Link in bio” higher in the caption; echo in First Comment.
Issue: Caption truncation hides CTA
Fix: Keep the hook + CTA within the first line or two.

Postly tips

Use the Destination Link preview to verify tracking params before publishing.
If you cross-post, keep link text minimal so it fits platform limits.
For Instagram-first campaigns, toggle First Comment and repeat the short link there.
