TikTok link in bio: what to put first (and what to avoid)

How to tailor a link-in-bio page for TikTok: 3 useful sections, one concrete scenario (source → link order), 3 common mistakes, and a factual 3-step setup.

Keyword: tiktok link in bioCanonical: /en/use-cases/tiktokhreflang: fr / en

Proof demo: source switch → different order

Same URL, but a different rendering based on where the visitor comes from. Configure once. Korli applies the rest automatically.

TikTok context: hot traffic, needs a short and clear CTA

  • A TikTok visitor arrives with a specific intent—help them decide in one click.
  • Your first link should answer “what should I do next?”
  • Keep 1 primary action + 1 secondary resource (not more).

Example link hierarchy (for TikTok)

  • #1: Pinned TikTok video
  • #2: an offer/resource aligned with TikTok intent
  • #3: subscription (newsletter) or proof (testimonials)

Measure what works for TikTok (don’t guess)

  • Look at clicks per link and per source—TikTok deserves its own view.
  • Change one thing at a time, otherwise you can’t attribute outcomes.
  • If your top link CTR is low, it’s often an intent mismatch.

Concrete example

Korli scenario: TikTok visitor → dedicated link order

  1. Visitor comes from TikTok: Korli sets “Pinned TikTok video” as #1.
  2. If they come from YouTube: Korli promotes “Latest video / playlist” as #1.
  3. If they come from a newsletter: Korli promotes “Current offer” as #1.

How it works (3 steps)

  1. Add your links and define the primary action for TikTok.
  2. Set a Smart Rule “source = TikTok” → tailored order/visibility.
  3. Share one URL: Korli applies the right variant automatically.

Common mistakes

  • Using a generic link as #1 even though TikTok visitors expect context.
  • Listing too many links (people scroll and bounce).
  • Not checking clicks by source (optimizing blind).

FAQ

What should be the first link for TikTok?

The link that matches the dominant TikTok intent (latest content, proof, or offer). Quick test: “if they click once, is it useful?”.

How many links should I add?

There’s no perfect number, but there is a hierarchy: one primary action, one or two secondary actions, and everything else as a second layer (or per-source variants).

How do I avoid SEO cannibalization?

This page stays specific to TikTok. Comparisons stay “table + verdict”, and the hub stays general.
