Gregory John Founder, Buildcamp

Frequently asked questions
Is MailerLite a free Linktree alternative?

Both MailerLite and Linktree offer free plans, but MailerLite’s free plan gives you access to more features and customization options compared to Linktree’s. For example, with MailerLite you can add email sign-up forms to your link in bio page for free, whereas this is a paid feature for Linktree users.

Can I use my own domain with MailerLite's link in bio tool?

Yes and we actively encourage it! While you can get a free MailerLite domain, connecting your link in bio to your own domain means you keep all your traffic on your own platform. This is important if you want to secure brand deals and are using your audience size as a metric when negotiating these deals. 

Watch this tutorial on how to easily connect your own domain to our link in bio tool.

What makes MailerLite better than Linktree?

Better is a loaded word: both tools are great, but MailerLite is the better option for content creators who want advanced features and to integrate their email marketing software, digital products, and link in bio into one central hub. Linktree is fine for those who want a simple link in bio page but don’t need too many customization or advanced selling options.

Is it easy to migrate from Linktree to MailerLite?

Yes it’s super simple! (Of course we would say that, wouldn’t we? But hear us out…) You start with our link in bio template. You add your own brand styles and use our Drag & drop content blocks to add the content you need. Add your custom domain if you’re using one and voilá! 

And get this, when you sign up for your MailerLite account you’ll get 30 days of 24/7 email and live chat support. If you have any trouble setting up your forms, customizing your link in bio page, or integrating your E-commerce store, one of our award-winning customer service agents will be more than happy to help. 

Most of our customers are able to set up their links, forms and integrations within the first day.

What social media platforms can benefit the most from a link in bio page?

The most beneficial is Instagram and TikTok because these platforms don’t allow you to add links directly to your posts like Facebook or LinkedIn. A link in bio page can help you house all the most important links you want to promote and make it easy for your followers to find them. 

Having said that, a link in bio page is a great tool to use on all platforms. You can curate the links and content you show on it to drive engagement and traffic to your most important assets like freebies, your email list, and your latest content.
