Strengths and trade-offs
Lnk.Bio — where it wins

- Custom URL and basic click counts without paying
Where it doesn't

- Card layout carries images and text, so it reads like a mini site
- Free plan is fully usable for a personal page
Where it doesn't
- Built around the phone app, so desk-based teams will find it limiting
- Card templates limit how much you can change per screen
- Longer analytics history, mailing list and branding removal are paid
- Lnk.Bio8.0/10 · Free plan · paid from $0.99/mo
Unlimited links free, and a lifetime tier for the price of a month elsewhere.
