About Linklay
Updated May 2026
Linklay is the link in bio tool built for creators who want premium features without premium prices. We started Linklay because the existing tools were charging $15–$35/month for features that should be free — analytics, retargeting pixels, custom themes, and unlimited links. Today, Linklay serves creators in 80+ countries with a free-forever plan that covers what most other tools paywall, plus a $9.99/mo Pro tier for power users.
Our Mission
Every creator should be able to route clicks to customers without paying a subscription tax. Linklay's mission is to ship the most-requested link-in-bio features — analytics, retargeting pixels, scheduled links, video backgrounds, AI reordering, edge-rendered SEO — on the free plan, and reserve Pro for genuine power-user upgrades. Linklay does not process creator payments or take a cut of creator sales. Creators can link out to external storefronts, payment platforms, memberships, affiliate offers, booking pages, and other destinations.

What Makes Linklay Different
Most link-in-bio tools render pages client-side, which means search engines see almost nothing of your bio link. Linklay edge-renders every profile and marketing page with structured data, OpenGraph metadata, and semantic HTML — so your link page can actually rank for personal-brand and niche queries. The Pro-only SEO-Powered Link is a feature few competitors ship today: it marks one outbound URL as dofollow, passing real Google ranking equity from your indexed Linklay profile to your money page.
- Edge-rendered HTML on every page — no JavaScript SEO walls
- Video and GIF backgrounds — a free differentiator vs Linktree
- SEO-Powered Link (Pro) — pass a dofollow link to your site
- One-click importer from Linktree, Beacons, Stan Store, and Later
- Native iOS app for managing your page on the go

Meet the founder
Linklay was founded in 2024 by Joseph Pugliese in Los Angeles. He built it because every existing link-in-bio tool renders creator pages entirely client-side — the HTML a browser first receives is an empty shell that JavaScript fills in only after the page has loaded. Google, Bing, and the new generation of AI answer engines (ChatGPT search, Perplexity, Gemini, Google's AI Overviews) don't wait for that JavaScript to execute. They read the raw HTML, find nothing meaningful, and move on. The result: millions of creator profiles sitting on the biggest platforms in the category, effectively invisible to the search engines that route intent-driven traffic.
Linklay was built the opposite way from day one. Every profile is edge-rendered as real, semantic HTML with structured data, OpenGraph tags, and canonical links baked in before a browser ever asks for the page. A creator's bio page on Linklay can rank for their own name, their niche, and the products they link out to — the same way a real website would. Every marketing page, guide, and comparison on linklay.io ships pre-rendered too, so the platform itself surfaces in AI answers instead of being paraphrased around.
