Best Link in Bio for Founders in 2026

Picking the best link in bio for founders used to mean picking between Linktree and a personal site. In 2026 there are more options, and a few well-known ones have disappeared. This roundup covers the tools founders actually use, what each does well and who it suits. We make makerhandle, so it is on the list, and we have tried to be fair to everyone else.

What a founder's link in bio needs to do

A founder's bio link gets tapped by customers, other founders, investors, journalists and potential hires. They are all asking roughly the same things:

What do you build? Clear projects, not a wall of buttons.
Is it real? Status, and ideally revenue that can be checked.
How do I reach you? One obvious contact method.

Beyond that, a few practical points matter:

Setup time. You have a company to run. A page that takes an evening to design will go stale.
Analytics. You should know whether the link is used and which project people click.
Your own domain. Tools shut down, so a link on a domain you own is insurance.
Price. A link in bio is a small line item. It should stay small.

We wrote a longer guide on what to put on a founder link in bio.

Tools that closed: check your bios

Before the list, a quick warning. Several tools founders used are gone:

Bento (bento.me) shut down on February 13, 2026. Its links now redirect to Linktree.
Read.cv was acquired by Perplexity in January 2025 and wound down, with data export available until May 16, 2025.
Polywork shut down on January 31, 2025.

If any of your bios still point to one of these, fix that today. And whichever tool you pick next, a custom domain means the next closure costs you a DNS change, not an afternoon of updating profiles. See custom domain for your link in bio.

The options

makerhandle

Best for: founders, indie hackers and makers who want one simple page for all their projects, with proof.

makerhandle is a link in bio organised around projects. Each one has a status (Active, Building, Acquired, On hold, Discontinued), a description, tags and a screenshot, laid out by one of seven templates that are hard to break. Revenue can be verified from Stripe (a read-only restricted key) or Shopify (a read-only app) and shown with a check mark and a history chart. Analytics are built in with no cookies and no stored IPs, and there is an email subscribe box with double opt-in.

It is free for five projects, and Pro is $20 a year with unlimited projects, every template and a custom domain. Where it falls short: verified revenue only covers Stripe and Shopify, and it does not sell products for you.

Indie Page

Best for: solo founders who want a founder page and sell through Stripe or Lemon Squeezy.

Indie Page (indiepa.ge) is a well-established founder page with revenue verification for Stripe and Lemon Squeezy, leaderboards, analytics, email collection and a custom domain. As of October 2026 it uses one-time pricing, with a yearly pass and a lifetime option. If you sell through Lemon Squeezy, it is the obvious pick. Compare it in detail: makerhandle vs Indie Page.

TrustMRR

Best for: founders who want a verified listing, or are thinking about selling a startup.

TrustMRR is a public database of startups with revenue verified through payment providers, plus a marketplace for buying and selling them. It supports many providers, including Stripe, Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, Polar, RevenueCat and Shopify. It is a listing rather than a personal page, so many founders use it alongside a link in bio.

Linktree

Best for: founders who are also creators, or whose links are mostly content.

Linktree is the best-known link in bio, fast to set up, with lots of link types, integrations and commerce features. As of 2026 it has a free plan and paid tiers that vary in price by region. It is built around a list of links, so there is no project status or revenue verification. See Linktree vs a maker page.

Carrd

Best for: founders who want to design a custom one-page site.

Carrd is a flexible, inexpensive one-page site builder. As of October 2026 its Pro Standard plan, which adds custom domains and forms, is listed at $19 a year for up to 10 sites. You get a lot of control, and you do the design work yourself. We compare it directly in Carrd vs Linktree vs makerhandle.

Peerlist

Best for: founders in tech who also want a professional profile and community.

Peerlist is a professional network for people in tech, where your profile shows your work history and projects, and a weekly Launchpad lets you launch projects to the community. It is a network profile rather than your own page, so it pairs well with a link in bio.

Beacons

Best for: founders who sell digital products and work with brands.

Beacons is an all-in-one creator platform with a link-in-bio page, an online store, a media kit, email marketing and AI tools. If you sell courses or downloads, it puts a lot in one place. For a software founder, much of it may go unused.

A Notion site with Super

Best for: founders who want a full personal site and already write everything in Notion.

Super turns Notion pages into fast websites. It suits blogs, docs and full personal sites. As of October 2026 its Personal plan, which adds your own domain, is listed at $16 a month on monthly billing.

How to choose

You sell through Lemon Squeezy: Indie Page or TrustMRR.
You are thinking about selling a startup: TrustMRR.
You mostly share content: Linktree, or Beacons if you sell digital products.
You want to design every pixel: Carrd, or Super if you live in Notion.
You want a simple page for all your projects, with verified revenue and private analytics, done in two minutes: makerhandle.

Many founders combine two: a listing or network profile (TrustMRR, Peerlist) for discovery, and a link in bio they control for everything else.

Try makerhandle

If the last option sounds like you, claim your handle. It is free for up to five projects, and Pro is $20 a year.
