In this article, you will find out how it can help you and how you can create it. You will learn how to drive traffic from Instagram.

Only one link on Instagram

Instagram allows you to put only one link on your profile. That’s why you should use it smartly. Most people would put there a link to their websites or just other social media. You can use it way better with MyList.bio. It’ll allow you to link all of your social media and anything else you want there, for example, articles or important campaigns.

How to drive traffic from Instagram and encourage your followers to click the link on your profile

#1 Call to action in your stories 

If you don’t do it yet, then start. Use stories to make better connections between you and your followers. Doing that, don’t forget to mention your link in bio. In this way, there is a chance that someone who sees your story will go to your profile and click the link.

#2 Put it into your highlights

Everyone who’s first visiting your profile will probably spot highlights. That’s why you should focus on improving them and if you want more traffic on your website, then simply add a highlight with a similar story you’ve just seen above. You will attract people to your link by offering them any profits, such as knowledge on a certain, catchy topic. 

#3 Make a poll

If you don’t have over 10,000 followers on your account, then you don’t have the “swipe up” option. Still, there’s something else you can do. Make a poll so that anyone interested in something you published will be able to decide whether they want to receive or not the link. If they choose “yes”, then you can directly send them a short message with the link and ask for their opinion. You will create more engagement and get to know your followers better.
