What are your thoughts about just using your website as a landing page rather than a link tree?
Hey man. I’ve been following you for a while. Finally getting to implement some of you advice. I had a question, what would you recommend for posting the link in bio url on TikTok when you don’t have 1000 followers?
Trying to figure this out as I’m just starting.
Thanks again for the great info, you’re the man..💪
I tried LinkedIn and is a sack of crap full of bots.
Great job on this! Thank you!
Thanks for the info I’m going to try beacons 🎉
I use Flowpage for me the best free
Komi is pretty dope
I did a coding bootcamp, I’m about to just code my own landing page
Yooo this Beacons one is crazy! Thanks for sharing.
Am I doing the wrong thing by setting up my own linktree on one of my webpages on my website?
i had komi and i see a lot of industry people use it but it is SO SO slow. i dont understand what the komi people r doing
Thanks man! Gonna miss Koji but Beacon is great
RIP Koji 😢
no one is beating linktree anytime soon jesse :'( <3
i watch these videos….but someone need to eq this dudes voice. That nasally voice is like nails on the chalkboard. Subtitles ftw
You forgot Bio site by Square Space
I created a hidden “Links” page on my website that I use as my Link In Bio. A little more work to design but it gets me more website hits 👍🏼
the thing is, linktree is so mainstream that people would just assume you have one, and if they see something else in bio they might not click, and this is way more a problem than having a cheap design imo
Others promise, Jesse delivers! Thanks, man.
Imagine having a premiun like service for FREE, getting sold, and the alternative the company that buy the free services is: you have to pay now to get the same lol
Been been been waiting for this video. Was about to just ask on another video 😂
thanks🎉
cheers for the list etc. !!!! peace
Thanks Jesse this is very informative!
Koji was great. Every time a service I use gets acquired and enshitified, I get closer to setting up my own server
doing gods work thank you Jesse!! fuck linktree lmao
Another incredible video. I also appreciate you speaking into two microphones.
Anyone else going through the comments to find other links in bio?? Btw RIP Koji, never used em but we know Jesse loved them. We've been using a square space page for a while now, ngl I think it's the nicest bio link we've had so far (link in bio 😏😏)
Incel Hype Beast is the jam. Yeah, not feling Linktree. Im dropping singles and don't want to drop the ball, thank you for keeping us informed.
curious to see ur thoughts on hypeddit, thought it would be on here
Ever heard of Lu ma ?
why's James crying? CAUSE HE JUST GOT DUNKED ONNNNNN
Thanks Jesse I’ve been wondering what I could use to replace Koji with. It’s annoying you spend that time to make a cool profile on a platform like that just for it to be deleted a year later.
Thank you for this video. RIP Koji.
Think like a consumer. If they like your stuff, then the linking service is the last thing someone will judge you on as long as it has your links and its easy to navigate thats all you need. Worry about making it look fancy when you have a huge fan base and fan afford it.
The way I lost it at the 'Incel Hypebeast' joke hahahahhaha
Beacons def top tier. another one worth mentioning is bento me (also free), although they were acquired by linktree in 2023.
Curious to know where you would rank bento me
LOL not krispy kreme and money maker mike in the intro
This is great my goal was to get my shit together on this specific thing today because my album is dropping Friday. Hell yeah the universe/Jesse giveth – thanks man
How can linktree make coji leave? How? Are they the owner or what? Explain pls
Was waiting on this video once I heard the news about LinkTree
In all seriousness, took your advice on Rivet and now that it’s paid, for the price point, I definetly feel like the “upcoming” features might be hundreds of dollars later if we continue to use it. Want to be optimistic but only time will tell. Gonna have to explore Beacons & Later even further now. Thanks for the tips, as always 🙏🏽👑🚀
Show us the tax records!!!! If not, this is fake news Jesse!
Sad to see Koji go 😓but thanks as always for these cool alternatives!
I use Beacons and love it!
Way to come thru with the exact video I was hoping you would make. Thanks Jesse.
you're goated Jesse, thank you
