Link-in-bio
One link that holds your entire web presence. Browse the 2 parent tools below — each has a dedicated page with up to 10 indie or bootstrapped alternatives, plus pricing, founders, and where applicable, open-source flags.
Linktree turned a single link into a $1B company by selling design and analytics. The indie alternatives (Beacons, Bento, Sleek Bio, plus dozens of weekend-build clones) have caught up on design and undercut on price. For most creators, the real choice is between Linktree's network effect and an indie tool's lower fees on commerce.
What to look for
- Custom domain support on the free or low tier (not a $20+/mo upsell)
- Commerce: tip jars, digital products, paid links — without per-transaction platform fees
- Real analytics (UTMs preserved, referrer kept) — not 'clicks: 42'
- An export of every link, click and product so you're never locked in
Common gotchas
- Branding removal as a $5/mo upsell that's hard to justify
- Platform fees on commerce on top of card processing
- Email capture tools that don't sync to your real ESP
