CLYK vs Linktree

A bio page that is actually yours.

CLYK gives you a real bio page, a custom domain from $6, and full analytics. No forced branding on any paid tier.

What Linktree does well

Linktree made link-in-bio a product category. They taught an entire generation of creators that one link can hold a career. The onboarding is clean, the brand is friendly, and the network effect of a linktr.ee URL in a social bio is genuine.

Their template library is wide and keeps growing. Their commerce add-ons have matured. If a creator needs a page up in ninety seconds with zero setup and zero decisions, Linktree still delivers that experience better than almost anyone.

We built CLYK because we think the next step — owning your page, your domain, and your data — should not cost as much as it does, and should not require giving up your branding to the tool you pay for. Our job is not to replace a tool that works for its audience. It is to build the one that works for creators who want to move on.

Where CLYK is different

  • No forced branding on paid tiers.

    Linktree's free plan requires a Linktree logo on your page. On CLYK, every paid tier is clean. Your audience sees your brand. Your footer, your voice, your domain.

  • Custom domain from $6.

    Linktree's cheapest plan with a custom domain is Starter at $8/mo. CLYK's Starter tier starts at $6/mo and includes unlimited links. That is a lower price for more room to grow.

  • Shortener and bio in one account.

    Every CLYK link can be a short link, a bio-page link, or both at once. Same dashboard, same analytics, no second tool. Campaign short links and your public bio page live side by side.

  • Analytics that filter bots.

    Human clicks, bot clicks, geography, device, source, and UTM parameters — all in your dashboard, on every tier. Export to CSV any time. We have seen teams discover that 20% or more of their “clicks” on other platforms were automated traffic they had been paying to count.

  • Your data stays yours.

    Visitor IPs are hashed with SHA-256 before they hit storage. We never see a raw IP. You can export your full click history and your full email-subscriber list any time, with no migration fee and no upsell.

Migrating from Linktree

Bringing a Linktree page over is straightforward. Copy your link list, paste into CLYK's bio-page builder, upload your avatar and background, and pick a theme. If you already own a domain, point it at CLYK with one DNS record. Most pages we have seen are rebuilt in under thirty minutes, with a custom domain live the same day.

Your bio page should advertise you, not the tool hosting you.

Start free on CLYK. Bring your own domain when you are ready, at a price that does not punish you for wanting to look professional.
