Why You Should Use Littlely Instead of Linktree for Your Profile Link

🥳 Are you familiar with the 'Multi-Link (URL) Solution'?

Social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and KakaoTalk are indispensable parts of modern life and offer various benefits. They are easy to use and provide users with diverse opportunities.

A prime example is personal PR. Besides this, they often offer opportunities to attract potential customers by showcasing portfolios, and for product sellers, they provide sales opportunities… In short, individuals can freely upload their unique and persuasive content to generate revenue. (Without limitations of time or space.) 😎

However, despite these benefits, most social media platforms restrict the ability to link to other platforms. As you know, Instagram's profile link display only allows for a single direct link.

The limitation to a single link restricts users' broad social media activities and is unwelcome news for those seeking connections beyond a specific channel. This increasing need has led to the rapid growth in demand for a solution known as the Multi-Link solution. (*Also referred to as micro-landing pages, Instagram bio links, or profile links)

As you know, the most well-known multi-link solution is 'Linktree'. Unlike the past, various multi-link solutions are now available. However, it's challenging to find similar services in Korea, leading most users to utilize Linktree for their multi-link needs. *While difficult to find, they do exist.

😕 It's popular, so I used it… but… Are there any domestic services?

First, Linktree is one of the first and most popular services to solve the 'single link issue on Instagram profiles'. Just because it was the first to solve the problem doesn't mean it's perfect in every aspect.

For example, Korean Linktree users express dissatisfaction with the multi-step signup process and the English-only interface. This is because the service isn't localized for Korea. Foreign services offer UI/UX optimized for their respective countries, which can cause a sense of alienation for Korean users. 😦

Korean users tend to prefer larger screen layouts, and the static UI of Linktree can feel cramped. Also, since all service settings are in English, it can feel daunting from the start. Often, users find themselves referencing blog explanations/YouTube videos on a separate screen to follow the setup guide.

Now, there's a way to access a service with the same functionality without having to rely on a 'How to Set Up a Linktree Profile - Must Read' blog post or YouTube video alongside the setup process. It's a solution that offers a service similar to Linktree within Korea, and that's 'Littly'.

✌ Advantages of Using Littly Instead of Linktree

- A Faster Signup Process Welcomes You.

Let's sign up for Linktree and Littly simultaneously.

As you can see in the video, Littly allows you to get started right away without any special verification and offers a simpler signup process compared to Linktree. It takes just 20 seconds to sign up and create a profile! (If you focus on profile settings, it might take a bit longer than 20 seconds. 😏)

- We're Korean, so we prefer Korean… 💖

You all know that Linktree is an English-only service. It's simple to set up, you might think… But, at the same time, you can't help but want to make your profile look more aesthetically pleasing. In such cases, English text can become an obstacle.

Littly provides all settings in Korean, enabling you to easily customize your link content as desired. (Littly 20-Second Setup Guide) Don't forget that Littly can respond to inquiries, questions, and feature suggestions faster than Linktree!

🙌 Various Ways to Utilize the Littly Profile Link

- Update Your SNS Profile Link (Instagram/LinkedIn, etc.)

As mentioned earlier, social media platforms strictly regulate external channel redirection. There are various reasons for this, such as a reduction in customer retention time if multiple links are activated within the platform. Regardless of the reason… if only one link is allowed, why not showcase multiple sites within that one link?

You can update your profile across all social media platforms that only allow a single link using Littly.

'When you want to showcase your Smart Store link and website together on Instagram'

'When you want to display your website and project results, not just a simple PPT portfolio, in one place'

'When you want to showcase links to your professional activities, such as Kmong, Soomgo, or your blog, in one location'

If you're in any of these situations, try updating your links. Littly, which is easy to use and doesn't require a complicated signup process, is here to help.

- Company Culture and Product Promotion

Companies often maintain separate promotional channels in addition to their main website. This is because each department can run channels tailored to their specific objectives, such as company culture, recruitment, and business promotion.

In such cases, it's beneficial to include various links within 'one profile link'. Consolidating different company channels into a single integrated link avoids the need to display multiple icons for each link. Depending on the situation, it can also prevent the hassle of posting different links.

T'way Airlines utilizes Littly to consolidate their promotional channels and display them as their Instagram profile link. They showcase company culture and ongoing promotions in one place, projecting a more approachable company image to users.

- Personal Branding and Your Own Portfolio

'Personal Branding' - you've probably heard it a lot. It's an easy concept to understand, but it can feel vague and uncertain where to start. In reality, self-promotion shouldn't be overcomplicated, and it's beneficial to just start.

Creating a website and your own blog are commonly recommended as starting points. Those sites (links) you create collectively become your portfolio.

Littly can be used as a link aggregator and portfolio for personal branding purposes. Many freelancers and job seekers are using Littly to enhance their personal branding efforts. :) 😉
