How to Create a Link Page on Your Shopify Store (And Why You Should!)

If you're using social media to drive traffic to your business, you’ve probably heard of services like Linktree or Beacons. While these platforms are great for organizing your links in one place, there's a better option—creating a custom link page directly on your Shopify store.


In this post, I’ll walk you through why you should create your own link page on your website and how to do it in just a few steps. Plus, I’ve included a mini-tutorial to help you set it up!


 

Why You Should Create a Link Page on Your Shopify Store

Instead of relying on third-party tools, here’s why a Shopify-hosted link page is the smarter choice:


1. Boost Your Website Traffic


When you use a service like Linktree, you're sending potential customers to their platform instead of yours. By creating a link page on your own website, every click helps increase your traffic, which can improve your SEO and Google rankings.


2. Stay on Brand


Third-party link services have limited design options, meaning your branding can get lost. With a Shopify link page, you can fully customize it to match your brand colors, fonts, and style, creating a seamless experience for your visitors.


3. Increase Conversions


When visitors land on your Shopify-hosted link page, they’re already in your store environment. This makes it easier to guide them toward shopping, signing up for your email list, or exploring more of your content.

4. Track Your Analytics


With your own link page, you can track visitor behavior using Shopify’s built-in analytics. You’ll get better insights into which links perform well and how people interact with your store.


5. No Subscription Fees


Many link services charge a monthly fee for customization and analytics. Creating a Shopify link page is a one-time setup with no extra costs.
