How to Change the Link in Your LinkedIn Bio

Last verified 2026-07-06.

Changing the link in your LinkedIn bio takes about 20 seconds once you know the path. This guide covers the exact navigation, the "changes not showing" cache issue, and how to point LinkedIn at a link-in-bio page so you never have to edit your profile again just to swap one destination.

Step-by-step

  1. Step 1. Open the LinkedIn app on your phone (the profile editor works on desktop too for platforms that have one).
  2. Step 2. Navigate to Me → View profile → Edit intro (pencil) → Contact info → Website.
  3. Step 3. Clear the existing URL in the Website field.
  4. Step 4. Paste the new URL. Double-check it starts with https:// — LinkedIn silently drops malformed URLs on some builds.
  5. Step 5. Tap Save. The change is live within a few seconds.

"I saved it but the old link still shows"

LinkedIn caches profile pages aggressively. If you're checking from another account or a browser tab, force a refresh (pull-to-refresh on mobile, hard reload on desktop) or wait 60 seconds. The change is live on the server the moment you tap Save — the delay is client-side caching.

Change your link once, never again

Instead of editing your LinkedIn bio every time you release something new, point LinkedIn at a link-in-bio page (Linklay, Linktree, Beacons). Update the destination inside the link-in-bio tool; your LinkedIn bio never has to change.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often can I change my LinkedIn bio link?

As often as you want. LinkedIn does not rate-limit profile edits.

Does changing the link break existing traffic?

Old cached versions of your profile may show the previous link for up to a minute. New taps route to the new destination immediately.

Can I schedule a link change?

LinkedIn doesn't ship native scheduling for profile edits. A link-in-bio tool with scheduled links is the standard workaround — swap the destination on a timer without touching LinkedIn.
