# Where to Put Your Portfolio Link on LinkedIn > LinkedIn removed the free intro hyperlink. Where a portfolio or link in bio still fits: Contact info, Featured, the custom button and your About text. By Dane Dolph. Published 2026-10-19 on the makerhandle blog. Tags: Careers, Portfolios, Guides. If you are job hunting or selling your work, your portfolio link belongs on your LinkedIn profile. Where exactly is less obvious than it used to be: LinkedIn's help center now says "We have removed the option to add a hyperlink to your profile" intro, and the replacement button is a paid feature. Here is where a link still fits, from LinkedIn's own help pages as of October 2026, and which spot to use for what. ## 1. Contact info: up to three websites (free) LinkedIn lets you show **up to three website links**, and they appear in the **Contact info** section of your intro. Open your profile, open Contact info, edit it, add the address and pick a type such as Portfolio or Personal. Every account has this, and recruiters who look for it will find it. The downside is that it is one tap away from your profile, not on it. ## 2. Featured: the link people actually see The **Featured** section sits near the top of your profile and shows cards with a preview image and title. You can add a link there, and it shows as a card with your page's image. This is the most visible free spot for a portfolio. Tips that make it work: - put your portfolio first; only the first few cards show before people have to scroll sideways - give the card a plain title, such as "Portfolio: projects, case studies and how to reach me" - check how the preview looks, because the card uses your page's share image LinkedIn moves menus around, so if you do not see Featured, look under Add profile section. ## 3. The custom button (Premium) A **custom button** at the top of your profile can send visitors to a website you choose, and LinkedIn says it can show on your profile, posts, messages and search results. Per LinkedIn's help center it needs **Premium Business**, or a Sales Navigator or Recruiter plan. Worth it if you already pay; not a reason to subscribe on its own. ## 4. Your About text and posts You can type your address into your About section and posts. Use the full address, such as https://makerhandle.com/yourname, and keep it short so it is easy to read. A post that shows one project and links to it often gets more clicks than any profile field, and you can pin it to Featured afterwards. ## Which link to use Use **one address** everywhere, and make it a page that shows all your work, not a single project. Then your LinkedIn, resume, GitHub and email signature all point to the same place, and you only update one thing when you ship something new. That page should answer, in a few seconds: - what you do and what you are looking for - three to five of your best projects, each with your role and outcome - how to reach you The [portfolio link for your resume](https://makerhandle.com/for/job-seekers) page covers this in more depth, and [what to put in a developer portfolio](https://makerhandle.com/blog/what-to-put-in-developer-portfolio) covers the projects themselves. ## On makerhandle Each project on a makerhandle page has its own page with your role, timeline, stack, highlights and a write-up, which is exactly what a recruiter opens from LinkedIn. Turn on [Open to work](https://makerhandle.com/features/open-to-work) to show that you are looking and add a hire-me button. Use makerhandle.com/yourname?ref=li in Featured and the stats list LinkedIn as the source, so you know whether the link is doing anything. ## Sources - [LinkedIn Help: Add or remove a website from your profile (up to three, in Contact info)](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a548010/add-or-remove-a-website-from-your-profile?lang=en) - [LinkedIn Help: Add a link to the introduction section of your profile (hyperlink option removed; custom button)](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a727760) - [LinkedIn Help: Add or remove a custom button from your profile](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a1484520) --- Source: https://makerhandle.com/blog/portfolio-link-on-linkedin makerhandle: makerhandle is a link in bio for makers and founders: every project with its status and revenue verified from Stripe, Paddle and more.
