# The best link in bio for YouTubers

> The best link in bio for YouTubers: a page that shows your latest video by itself, sponsors and merch, and a link that works in every description.

Your link sits in every video description, often for years. The best one shows your newest upload by itself and stays on a domain you own.

## What a YouTuber's page needs

- **Your newest video, automatically.** Nobody should have to edit the page after every upload.
- **Sponsors and affiliate links,** easy to swap, ideally scheduled to come down when a deal ends.
- **Merch and products** with prices.
- **A link that never breaks** in thousands of old descriptions: your own domain.
- **Stats** that show which videos send people.
