Give your brand its own address. Learn how to move from Linktree to an AkaMe creator website, import your links, personalize your page, and launch on a custom domain.
Linktree brings your links together. Your own creator website takes that idea further: a personalized page with your photos, your style, and a domain that puts your name in the address.
With AkaMe, you can start by importing your Linktree profile, customize your website, and preview it before checkout. Domain registration, connection, and publishing are handled for you, so you can focus on how you want your brand to look.
You can also keep using the platforms that already power your business. Your subscriptions, shop, booking service, and social accounts can stay where they are. Your new website becomes the branded destination that connects visitors to them.
The Quick Version
- Choose the links and content you want to keep.
- Import your Linktree profile into AkaMe.
- Personalize your photos, design, and main call to action.
- Choose your domain and review the preview before checkout.
- Test your published website, then update your social bios.
Keep a link to your new website on your old Linktree so people using older posts or saved links can still find you.
Why Move from Linktree to Your Own Website?
A link-in-bio page helps people find your destinations. A creator website gives those destinations a home that feels like your brand.
Instead of sharing a platform profile address, you can share a custom domain based on your creator name or business identity. Your photos, colors, and wording carry that identity through the page.
For creators working across several platforms, that gives you one consistent address to use in social bios, collaborations, email signatures, and promotional material.
AkaMe combines that personalized presentation with managed setup. You choose the content and design; we handle connecting and publishing the website on your selected domain.
1. Choose What Belongs on Your New Website
Start by opening your current Linktree and reviewing its buttons. This is a chance to make your page more useful, rather than carry over every link you have ever added.
Keep the destinations that matter now, such as:
- Your subscription or membership page.
- Your shop or featured product.
- Your latest work or content.
- Your booking page.
- Your social accounts.
- Your business contact information.
Leave out expired promotions, outdated announcements, and destinations you no longer use.
Then choose your main call to action. What should someone do first when they land on your website—subscribe, shop, book, or explore your work?
Giving that action priority helps visitors understand where to go, while supporting links remain available for people with a different purpose.
Keep Your Existing Business Tools
Moving your public page does not require moving the services behind its links.
| What you use now | How it fits into your creator website |
|---|---|
| An external subscription platform | Link to your existing profile |
| An online store | Add your storefront or a featured product |
| A booking service | Link to your booking page |
| Social accounts | Add your social destinations |
| A business inquiry page | Include it as a contact option |
If you use products, forms, or audience tools built directly into Linktree, review those separately. Importing a public profile brings over profile information and links; it does not transfer orders, customer records, or course content.
2. Import Your Linktree Profile into AkaMe
You do not need to start with an empty page.
Open the AkaMe creator website builder, choose the profile import option, and paste your public Linktree URL. The import can bring in your name, bio, social links, and buttons as a starting point.
Review the imported information, update anything that has changed, and remove links you no longer want.
Prefer a fresh start? You can enter your content directly and build the page around your current priorities.
Either approach gets you to the same next step: making the website yours.
3. Personalize Your Creator Website
Your links tell visitors where to go. Your presentation helps them recognize whose page they are on.
Start with your name, a short bio, and a photo that feels like you. Then choose the colors, typography, and design that bring the page together.
You can add supporting photos to show more of your work or personality. Keep your main destination easy to find, so the gallery supports your page rather than gets in its way.
Choose Your Main Photo
The first photo becomes your main image. Pick one that shows you clearly and works well in your selected design.
The builder accepts up to 60 photos and offers photo-ranking assistance. You decide what stays and how the images are arranged.
Review the photo in the preview, not just in your upload list. Check the crop, the space around your name, and how the page looks on a phone.
Give Your Main Button a Clear Purpose
Your main button should match the action you chose in step one. Use wording that tells visitors what to expect, then check that the destination opens the right page.
Supporting buttons can connect people to your other platforms, projects, or business contact route. Arrange them in an order that reflects what matters to you now.
Pick the Design That Fits Your Brand
Essential includes the Classic layout. Pro gives you access to all 50 Pro layouts, along with additional features such as advanced analytics and optional age verification.
Start with how your content looks. A simple layout with the right photo and a clear button can do the job well; a different design is useful when it better fits the presentation you want.
4. Choose Your Domain and Review the Preview
Your domain gives your creator website an address people can recognize. Search for a name based on your creator identity and check its spelling before selecting it.
A readable address is easier to use across your profiles and promotional material. Choose something you will still want to share when your next project arrives.
Before checkout, review the page as a whole:
- Does your name match how people know you?
- Is your main photo framed the way you want?
- Does the bio sound like you?
- Is the primary button easy to find?
- Are the supporting links correct?
- Does your selected plan include the design you chose?
You see the page before you commit. Use that preview to make the final adjustments, so the website reflects your brand from the start.
Domain Setup Is Handled for You
AkaMe registers the domain on your behalf and handles connecting and publishing the website. You do not need to configure a separate domain account to get your page online.
The domain is dedicated to you. If you later request a transfer to your own registrar account, the current terms provide for processing within 14 business days at no additional charge. After transfer, domain management and renewal become your responsibility.
You can read the domain terms for the details. That is separate from moving your links: the services behind your buttons stay where they already are.
5. Test Your Website, Then Update Your Social Bios
Once your website is published, open the custom-domain address and test it as a visitor. Your preview checks the presentation; your live website confirms the route people will actually use.
Check the essentials:
- Open your domain and confirm it shows your page.
- Review your name, bio, and main photo.
- Follow the primary button to its destination.
- Test the supporting links and contact route.
- Check the page on your phone.
When everything looks right, replace the Linktree address in your active social bios with your new domain. Open each public profile after saving and tap the link to confirm it works.
Your email signature, current promotional material, and business profiles can use the same address. Update the places you control so your audience sees a consistent destination.
Keep a Route from Your Old Linktree
People using older posts, saved links, or printed QR codes can still arrive at your Linktree. Give them a clear route to your new website.
Add a prominent button on the old profile that links to your custom domain. A label such as “Visit my website” tells people where it goes.
That button is a bridge, not an automatic redirect. Keep any Linktree tools you still use until you decide what to do with them separately.
Make Your New Website Easy to Keep Current
A creator website should grow with your work. When you launch something new, review the main button and decide whether that project deserves the first position.
Keep the useful destinations and remove dated campaigns from the page. Update your photos and bio when your brand changes, and check that your contact information still reaches you.
Save a simple list of your destination links. It gives you a reference when you change a button, import content, or review the page later.
If you use analytics, look at which destinations people select. Clicks help you understand activity on your page; purchases and subscriptions are confirmed by the services where they happen.
FAQ
Can I import my Linktree profile into AkaMe?
Yes. Paste your public Linktree URL into the builder's profile import option, then review the name, bio, socials, and buttons before launching.
Do I have to move my subscription platform or store?
No. Your creator website can link to the services you already use. Those accounts stay separate from your public website.
Can I preview my creator website before checkout?
Yes. You can personalize your page and review the preview before checkout, including your photos, design, and main button.
Who connects my custom domain?
AkaMe handles domain registration on your behalf, the website connection, and publishing. You choose your page content and selected domain.
Should I keep my old Linktree?
You can keep it as a route to your new website. Add a prominent button to your custom domain for people arriving through older posts or saved links.
Will a custom domain prevent social-platform restrictions?
No. A custom domain gives your website a branded address, but it does not guarantee protection from platform enforcement. Follow the content rules where you host and share your page.
